    Does anyone know who this is? I would almost say it's Micheal Moorer (which would make sense because he's a southpaw like Thompson), but this guy seems to be in better shape and taller. Plus Moorer had an eye injury i think. They seem like promotional pictures because there's no headgear.

    The guy with the red headgear is TG Wilson, the Moorer-esque guy is Jonathan Haggler.

    Its good for us in the UK though, instead of having to stay up till 6am every Saturday night/ Sunday morning we get to see a fight at 9 or 10pm :happy

    Wlad just amazes me & improves constantly as time goes on whereas most fighters would just become complacent. You can tell by his body that he constantly trains & gives 100% - he's a throw back to the old days when fighters actually lived a fighters life; its about time he started getting the recognition he deserves crap division or not.

    I'm quite amazed that a man that big can be that mobile, he looks to be getting trimmer which is a good sign. When he was KO'd by Brewster it looked like he ran out of gas possibly from being so built.

    I believe HBO will replay it at 10pm or so.

    I haven't checked the listings, but HBO almost always broadcasts it live that afternoon, and then replays it the same evening as well.

    Wlad looks like an anorectic, I think he may be seriously sick ...but still sexy in these red trunks.

    The true question ... what is Hopkins doing on that pic?

    You sure know your stuff. Seems like Steward always puts him in with young, hungry heavyweights for sparring.

    Wladimir is great shape as usual, should be a good fight.
