    I think people are being hard on Kimbo. The man sure looks like he takes his craft seriously. He seems to always come in in shape. Does he have the power to hurt Wlad? Yes, he's a big puncher. What he doesn't have are the skills and dexterity to land punches on a figher of Wlad's caliber. I think a better fight for Kimbo would be against Seth Mitchell. If Mitchell loses the rematch to Jonathan Banks then he will be relegated to gimmicky matchups like a Kimbo fight.

    Mitchel could beat a fighter like Tilyard using only a jab and Mitchel is at best a work in progress. He would brutally dominate Kimbo.

    Kimbo is much more aggressive than any of Wlad's other opponents and has the power to trouble him so the first round MAY be somewhat competitive. I see Kimbo bulldozing in on the first round but Wlad would just tie him up or block the shots, Kimbo might even get it on the scorecards if Wlad gets flustered.

    It all goes downhill after the first round though, Kimbo would of gassed and Klitschko would be exploiting his lack of blocking a KO would follow shortly.

    Kimbo's best bet would be fighting in the Prizefighter tournament, the format would suit his style and be very entertaining.

    Exactly. :good

    You know, as much of a huge mismatch and a true joke of a fight it would be, I wouldn't mind seeing Wlad fight Kimbo (provided other options such as Fury and Price were exhausted)....just to shut up all of those idiots who truly know absolutely nothing about boxing or the skill it takes to compete at the top.

    And as a bonus, it would give Wlad some increased visibility in the US from all the MMA/Internet Kimbo fanboys and news coverage (geez...how sad is that...sad but true).

    Remember Wlad-Mormeck?

    Mormeck would KO Kimbo. That's how much of a skill discrepancy there is.

    Mormeck was stopped at cruiserweight by Haye.

    Kimbo has never been knocked out in his boxing career :deal

    Replace the name Wlad with the name Jonty Wilder and I'd still call you a fool.

    wlad would hurt him really bad.

    n i like kimbo very entertaining. especially in boxing . u should never let kimbo step up in class. keep him in 4 rd fights like butterbean n put him on tv before hes too old. n he cant ever fight ne one good maybe sum prospects every now n then
