    Rahman has never lost to Toney. Do you actually think that someone will pay any attention to your posts after such an ignorant statement?

    Very true. Rahman did not lose to Toney. Tony did lose to Peter two times. Vlad beat Peter and Vitali stopped Peter for WBC title. HBO did not show that fight which was downright stupid! Showtime did show that fight. I have to give credit to them for doing such.

    Haye has never fought a top ten heavyweight, period. He has done nothing to earn a shot at title. Vlad signed to fight Haye which was purely a voluntary fight. Vitali will knock Haye out like he did Hide.

    Vitali Vs. Kirk Johnson was sold out at Madison Square Garden, New York during a huge snowstorm! Yes, MSG, NY is in America.

    Want to remind haters that Vitali Klitschko Vs. Kirk Johnson was sold out at Madision Garden (MSG) in New York, New York, USA. This during a huge snowstorm!!!!!!! Teddy Atlas predicted that Kirk Johnson would knock Vitali out with one punch. LOL! Vitali knocked Johnson out in the second round on HBO live!!!!!!!

    HBO know boxing Wlad is a joke, as boring as bat ****, Vitali he is a little better.

    Why Would HBO waste this time with boring euro bums like this when they can make exciting fights at smaller weights

    Right decision from Wald. He should not drop a belt for the Haye hype.

    Haye should fight his way to the top to become a worthy contender for The Champion.

    HBO would like nothing more than to manufacture a hwt like Tor Hamer or Arreola or Travis Kauffman or back inthe day the Michael Grant project. Preferrably handled by Al Haymon of course. Seems like HBO would like to sweep Wladimir Klitschko under the rug with the lack of respect they are showing such a phenomenally dominant HWT champion.

    Do you think if the Klitschkos were born in Harlem and were half black half Ukrianian doctors, do you think HBO would have televised Klitschko vs. Chagaev?

    Are you really that blind and/or stupid??? I know that Farmboxer is, but I didnt think that anyone eles on the site was...Yes Rahman lost to Toney and it was later changed to a NC...That dont change the fact that everyone still knows that Rahman lost the fight.

    I fell asleep on the last Klitschko fight that was shown on ESPN classic in the middle of the afternoon. HBO would be foolish to broadcast that nonsense.

    Thats not hard to figure out that Vitali might fight Haye. Its been talked about already on ESB and even I said they have had talks. You think the Idea of this fight is yours? You arent saying anything that we dont already know. Only problem I had with your statement was that you think Vitali fighting Haye is a way for Vitali to protect Wlad. I can tell you 100% thats not true and its typical bull**** speculation against Wlad

    Yep, I watched the fight and seen Rahman starting to get countered and rocked by the hook in the 3rd round. Rahman knew it wasn't his day and Toney was pretty ****ing sharp, it looked like the Toney that fought Peter the first time.

    I'm not saying I know everything, but growing up boxing all my life, you can tell alot by a persons facial features and what to look for as far if your oppenent has that "I'm done" look in his eyes, Rahman didn't want anymore that night and knew if he continued on he would be knocked within a few rounds. He was the one that told the doctor to stop it, it wasn't the other way around. Rahman lost that fight in my eyes, he quit in his corner.

    These Haye fans/Wlad haters can't even smell their own bull****. "Vitali fighting Haye so that Wlad doesn't have to"? Really??? The only reason Vitali/Haye is even a possibility at this time is because HAYE DROPPED OUT OF THE WLAD FIGHT. And he dropped out due to apparent money issues with Setanta....er, I mean a "back injury". First the guy can't secure a venue in England, and then he can't even secure the broadcast rights on his end. Yet, no matter what, the haters will try to spin this as if it's Wlad's fault that the fight didn't come together. ....utterly ridiculous.

    They are just crying because it will be another year before the fight can ever happen. And I believe that it will never happen. Which is truly unfortunate, because Haye spouted so much bull**** so loudly that it actually got people's attention and generated some interest in the fight. So, for the fight to happen, Haye will have to remain inactive, or just fight bums in the meantime. If he fights Vitali, VK will KO Haye in short order. And what will that prove?? That Haye has no business fighting the HW elite.

    It is funny how idiots like 1lehudson think that there is something wrong with normal people.

    Facts:
    1. Rahman and Toney has fought twice;
    2. Rahman did not loose any of those fights.

    It was changed to NC for a reason. Everyone knew it should be NC in the first place because that's what the rules say. Have you ever watched a figth on HBO or Showtime? They put the rules there before any fight. Just read them or listen when they do it for you.

    Very true

    Rahman clearly lost that fight. I had 5 people watching that fight with me and everyone knew Rahman quit.
    He just didn’t believe himself anymore and take the easy way out.

    WBC and WBO ranking treated that match Rahman loss as well.

    IBF raised Toney’s ranking as well but changed Rahmans rank back after it was changed NC.
