Sergei Liakhovich

He's Belarusian, not Russian. At any rate, it's good to see him back, hopefully he can make some noise.

 

They're east slavs, but still different groups. You don't see Russians coming out in full force to support the Klitschkos do you?

 

Sergei & Brewster should have both retired permanently after their brutal slugfest war...those 12 rounds of hell turned them both into damaged goods.

 

I'd like to see the Wolf do well, but I'm skeptical. It's been a long time since Brewster...and he's really done nothing since then. Inactivity has destroyed him. If he actually puts a few fights together, who knows! He should fight Briggs again and prove something. If he'd been more careful he could've spared us these past 5 years of Shannonism.

 

I want to see him fight chagaev!

 

That really was a hell of a fight that took something out of both guys they never got back.

 

Liakhovic rose as quickly as he fell from the heavyweight summit. He did show a lot of potential during the Brewster fight. Very nice right hand to the body. He was 10 seconds away from retaining his title against Briggs, too. How he managed to lose nearly every round to Valuev is beyond me ... styles I guess. I doubt he can still make nice now, but I'd like to see him try. That war with Brewster did take a lot out of him... damn, gotta rewatch that battle

 

I thought he was the stuff until he lost to Briggs and then got shutout by Valuev. He should beat Johnnie White though. That is a tremendous opportunity for White to beat a former champ. Maybe he could fight Tua, Welliver, Boswell, or Kevin Johnson if he first beats White. All those guys want to get into contention. What a better way then to fight eachother?

 

I think the time off will actually have done Sergei some good. I thought he looked really burnt out following his frawl for the ages with Brewster and who can blame him! He looks reenergized I think he just needs to shed the rust.

 

:good:deal

that was Sloppy but ENTERTAINING Fight. Damn that was a Fight.

Both were all guts and Heart.

 

I'v always wanted to see this fight, especially vs Volodymyr. Serhei is big has skills, a chin, and a punch.

Don ****ing King is the reason he's has 2 seperate 18 month layoffs. He ruins fighters with that **** it is what he does best. Hopefully at 34 he still has someting left and main event should keep him busy.

I'd like to see him fight a Klychko and after that a fight vs Adamek, Povetkin, Boytsov, Arreola.
