Klitschko fans... I am feeling nervous about this one.

Rahamn's biggest weakness is his glass jaw. I don't expect him to last any longer than Austin did.

 

every heavyweight fight makes people nervous because a chump heavyweight has enough power to knok out the world champ at +110kg.

 

Correct.

Sanders was a quick southpaw with significant power and a good reach. Rahman is being underestimated for far better reasons.

 

Wlad may have gotten a big complacent back a few years ago, but that was before his career was reduced to a laughing stock, as it was after the Sanders and Brewster losses.

He now knows, more than ever before, to not take ANYone lightly. Especaillly someone who has KOed at all time great like Lewis. He'll take Rahman as serious as anyone he's ever faced, I would say.

 

Didn't Rahman beat Sanders?

Oh yeah...he did

 

Heard Wlad being interviewd on the Bunce show this week on Setanta and he was well aware of the dangers of complacency when facing a potentially dangerous character like Rahman. He referred back to Lennox taking his eye off the ball in South Africa in 2001 when he lost to Rahman. Wlad sounded like he was motivated and taking this seriously. I got no sense of complacency from him at all.

 

Sanders fight,,,,wlad was handling sanders with ease in #1 round, an then boom, that fast left, an wlad was on the canvas,,,,it can happen in this fight, but if it does it would be later in the fight, but sence wlad not going to let it go later, it won't happen,,,,sanders lost to the rock, but sanders was the better boxer, an he had troubles with a wlad that was looking PAST him, ,,,,,,,NO, wlad takes this an don't see him having to get off the canvas to do so......we got about five more hours till we know what round he stopped the rock in....

 

dont feel nervous
Klitschko will end this quickly

 

Handling Sanders with ease? For what 4 seconds? I don't remember Wlad landing any MEANINGFUL shots at all (landed 7 shots according to compubox). Did you watch the fight? I did, I have it taped still.

 

Really? They never do that. I don't think that's right. I mean good the DLH Pacman fight was a farce anyway. Thank god I didn't pay for that sideshow.

 

I beg to differ. :deal

 

and it was a great fight: an underrated slugfest with nonstop action. although zakman refuses to acknowledge it, it showed that rahman can take a punch. but the 2008 version lacks that mental strength that's why he will go down early.

 

That was the dumbest post I have seen. Handling him with ease. LOL. He couldn't even land a ****ing punch.

 

If you're worried I suggest you watch the Rahman vs Lawrence fight again...

 

He must have meant BEFORE the bell for the first round sounded. :yep
