    You said same kind of positive things about Peter before fight but when the fight was over there was only excuses... It will be a same thing again. Robert stops Liakhovic in 5 rounds. Drops him from the body and finishes him couple of rounds later with a monster right hand :good

    Bad matchup for Liakhovich. Helenius will most likely stop him.

    Well I like Liakhovich. There was nothing special about his skills but he went to war with Brewster in an epic fight. I give him some credit for this. Unfortuantely he is past his prime. I am not even sure if I really want him to win that fight. A loss of Helenius would mean that the hopes in an exciting title fight including him fall to pieces.

    Both beat Lame-man Brewster. The fight could go either way.

    The one Sergei beat wasn't far removed from beating Wlad, nor was he blind in one eye, nor was he shot to **** :lol:

    Worth noting, Sergei has had issues being soft in the past himself. He's never lost a fight when he's come in at peak shape, below 235 pounds.

    He was 230 in his last outing and very well might be lower then that this time around.

    Anything to the story that Liakhovich took two bad knockouts from Wladimir in the amatures and refused to fight him ever again???

    I give him more than a chance.

    He is probably my pick, now that I think it through.

    If Helenius is any good he's going to win this, possibly before the distance.

    Sergei was actually a big underdog against Brewster and Guinn, who was a once undefeated top US prospect at the time Sergei beat him.

    Who knows, he has a history of upsets. His big upset of Lamon was off of 16 month layoff.

    This layoff isn't nearly that long.
