    Nothing as long as their last names aren't Browne, Wawrzyk, Towers, Hanks, Ferguson (I mean Slice) and, of course, Pianeta.

    And, their given name isn't Sonny Bill.

    Pianeta wasn't undefeated. He lost some years ago against Sosnowksi, but got away with a lucky draw.

    He's a solid boxer, who could hold a continental or intercontinental belt, but fighting for the world championship...hell no! Go and watch his fights (vs. Duhaupas, Orlov, Kurtagic e.g.), and you will clearly see his limitations and learn that the '0' has nothing to say about a boxer.

    @topic: Huck, Hernandez, Lebedev, Cunninham, Masternak, Chakhiev, even Troy Ross or Afolabi would beat him.

    Considering I didn't even watch Wlad vs Pianeta I am certainly not going to go back and watch his other fights. Thanks for the suggestion though.
     
  6. I'd say that Canelo could probablt beat him same for every other champion 154 and above. The poor fella had no chance against the psycho that is Wladimir the bully Klitschko

    I suppose that fighting a skinny cruiserweight like Henry Cooper would have been much more worthy..... LMAO.

    The problem with Pianeta is he had beaten no one of note (except washed up fighters who were prime in the 90s).

    If boxing fans are tired of this, then they need to support the creation of an organization that would force champs to fight the best contenders.

    I feel like the people picking a SMW to KO a 240 lb HW have never been in a boxing ring.

    You're 100% correct on the Pianeta part. :good

    I've seen better coordination and footwork from drunks in a 3am dance club bust-up. :yep
