Pictures: Vitali - Sosnowski Final Press Conference

Have you guys heard what Vitali said about Haye? If he fights one of the brothers they will 'end his career'. Seems to me his career even ends before he dares to face one of the brothers.

 

Certainly, it's a voluntary defense.

You forgot the main part Chef, that he needs the money far far more and is willing to fight for peanuts.:good

 

:good

 

I had no idea $1 million Dollars is peanuts for a voluntary challenger who is relatively unknown for his chance to get a piece of the HW crown and propel himself into the international boxing scene.

Valuev as a belt holder and main attraction of the evening made around $1.5 million per fight for most of his WBA defenses in Germany, just to give a figure for comparison.

 

You're missing the point. Sosnowski has a once in a lifetime opportunity and he's taking it seriously and training hard with a positive attitude. This isn't about money. It was more about money for the other clowns VK fought.

 

This wouldn't even be mentioned if Albert wasn't Polish.

 

Sosnowski looks natural. I've seen the results of roids, and that doesn't look like the product of roids. More like lots of hard work and time spent in the gym. Hope he does well, but something tells me Vitali wins this one by late KO or corner stoppage.

 

Why not have olympic testing in every single fight? All fights would be clean, and we would actually talk about boxing again instead of 90% of the threads discussing riods.

1 million dollars = peanuts

 

Sosnowski 45-2 ok but the guy's he fought came from a hospic center ya he's real ****en good, he's a bum that's going to have a one time pay day.

 

Thanks for the reminder. I'll probably buy :good

 

Sosnowski has always been one of my favorite fighters. I've been following his career for about 6 or 7 years now, and I will say this, that the Sosnowski that will show up vs. Vitali Klitschko will be the best ever Albert Sosnowski. Albert is prepared physically, mentally, and his preparations went real great. His sparring was great, he visits a psychologist every day in Germany and prepares to clear his mind ahead of this once in a lifetime opportunity. Sosnowski is fully focused and has left his family and girlfriend in Poland so he can get those last few alone time days to fully concentrate on Vitali.

A lot of people like to rag on how "****" Sosnowski is and how he is going to lose badly. I've been watching Albert for many years, I know him and his limitations. Sure, I think he will lose too, but im still going to cheer my favorite fighter on and im DEFIANTLY going to buy the PPV.

Albert Sosnowski may lose this fight, but he will lose with pride.

This guy aint no slouch like all these fat Americans. With all that said, I really hope Albert beats Vitali.

 

recently he beat some good opponents, way behind the top 5
but within top 10 of recent HW achievements ... the only guys who
are more worthy of title shot right now are Povetkin, Adamek, Valuev,
Solis and the only one who somehow dared to step for negotiations
with Vitaly was Solis ... but I guess he wasn't so serious this time.
