Check this out! Klitschko has mentioned Mitchell as a next opponent; he even said it might not be Arreola in November/December; he's trying to decide between Arreola, and Mitchell. . I think we can all agree Mitchell needs another fight, yes? And Arreola is pretty much going to be as good as he's going to be. Wladimir will likely fight Arreola in USA; most likely Madison Square Garden because of the Ukrainian population in NY - he can sell 13-15k. So, how about FURY vs. MITCHELL for the co-main to set up Wlad's next opponent?! With Fury, and a "football" prospect/American HW like Mitchell, MSG WOULD BE SOLD OUT!!! HELL OF AN HBO world championship boxing card!
Also, what do you guys think about these ratings for Fury and Mitchell, and Klitschko and Arreola for Fight Night Championship. . . (Im going to simulate my dream card. . . playing as Fury, and Klitschko). Fury: Speed - 80; Power - 95; Endurance - 91; Conditioning - 88; Toughness - 93; Refelxes - 80. NOTE: Fury proved his conditioning/endurance by going 12 against Chisora. . . Kept a pretty damn high punch output over 12 rounds. Mitchell: Speed - 88; Power - 96; Endurance - 90; Conditioning - 90; Toughness - 88(undetermined still); Reflexes - 85. Wladimir: Speed - 91; Power - 98; Endurance - 93: Conditioning - 97; Toughness - 83; Reflexes - 90. Arreola: Speed - 81; Power - 96; Endurance - 95 (has good endurance as proved against Vitali); Conditioning - 85; Toughness - 98; Reflexes - 79.
I used to. . Played a few matches, but it just felt too unrealistic becuase the guys I played against were just the type who don't really know much about boxing, and spammed punches, etc. . . But I'd be down to play sometime against another fellow hardcore real boxing fan; where we could make it a realistic simulation. . . I'm all about simulation, and realism. . . If you put the settings right, you can have surprisingly realistic matches against the CPU. . . My punch stats will always "feel realistic" too: usually I'll 175-350/400-900 punches (depending on what boxer I'm using, and who I'm fighting against). . . If I'm using Mayweather, i'll hold my opponent to around 100 punches landed, at like a 20% connect rate. . If I'm using Chavez Jr., I'll land like 275 punches @ 40% connect, but also get hit 250ish times @ 35-40% connect. You on PS3?
Fury's promoter said he wont leave the UK even for a Klychko fight. I just hope Golovkin is on the undercard being with K2 now.
Oh shyt, didn't even know Klitschkos had a promotional company. . . That's awesome Golovkin is in their stable! We really want to see Golovkin fight in America. . . HBO would prolly jump at hte chance to televise him against a good opponent. . . Why not against Andy Lee? He's irish, and will definitely help sell @ MSG! And if he can beat Chavez, it would be a unification fight! I think Hennessy just said that they were going to try everything they could to get Klitschko to come over to the UK to fight? I've never heard him say anything about "not leaving" UK for a fight, though? Is there an article with the interview oyu could link me to? In fact, I specifically do remember him talking about him wanting Fury to debut in USA soon.
EDIT. . Nevemrind, I just saw where he did say they wouldn't travel for a world title fight. . . But Im sure they would if they had to. . But that's just for the "title shot" he says. . He also said before that he wanted Fury to fight in USA at MSG. . . So who knows. . If the money is right, and with HBO exposure, they very well could make that fight.
HBO doesnt go out of their way to put guys like Golovkin on especially to have guys they've built up get their ass kicked by him. Look how they rewarded Pirog. If Lee does win no way would Dibella put him in with Golovkin. Dibella makes sure to protect his guys from the likes of Pirog and Golovkin.
Vlad plans on fighting Arreola and Mitchell next...........................he will knock both of them out.
Fury wouldn't risk his future chances of a titleshot in a fight vs. Mitchell. Especially not on hostile territory.
Yeah, and the K2 are also hoping Fury will save that cherry for one of them. Mitchell vs Banks Golovkin vs Kerry Hope Olafobi vs Flores All great fights and all very doable considering the K2 connection. Maybe add Ustinov vs Pajkic.
