Chambers does not want to fight anyone who can fight because he could lose title fight. Vlad will knock Chambers out after he knocks Povetkin out. Vitali sold out at MSG during a huge snow storm. The fight was Vitali Vs. Atlas' Kirk Johnson, Vitali knocked him out in the second round. Atlas predicted that his fighter Johnson would knock Vitali out with one punch! LOL!
Glad to hear Wlad is fighting Dec 12th...just wish there was also a date between now and December 12th. Only two fights in 2009 :?
Vlad needs to fight more often. He is not getting any younger. He probably can fight until he is 40, but....................
they are dealing with a possible Vitali Haye fight in a stadium again. its to hard to due 2 fights (1 in a stadium) at the same time. Vitali fights then wlad
Would be great!!!!!!! Vitali is true warrior in boxing and I loved him as a great kickboxer!!!!!!!! Vlad is boxing so very smoothly now. He is improving with every fight. So very talented. I get upset when they are unfairly criticized here. I wish they both would simply move to Showtime. HBO was somewhat upset when Showtime took Vitali Vs. Peter fight, was boxing history in the making. I am so disappointed with HBO. Vlad Vs. Chagaev fight was good fight, important. HBO showing Berto then not showing IBF, WBO, IBO, Ring Championship heavyweight fight was absurd.
Chambers was willing to go to Germany and fight Dimitrenko when that was considerded a dangerous risk by most boxers. He's willing to fight Povetkin again, of course the politics would get in the way. But seriously though, don't you think it would be wise for Povetkin to get a tune-up instead of staying inactive until his title shot?
Of course Wladimir is going to fight in the US again. However, it does not make any sense to fight Povetkin in the US. Povetkin's promoter is based in Germany and most of Povetkin's fight took place in Germany. So the natural flow of things suggests Germany for the Wladimir v Povetkin fight. Most of the big heavyweight fights for the last years took place in Germany.
The thing is that Vitali is fighting in September and usually the other brother fights within the next couple of months. When one of the brothers fight, the other takes care about the other things like promoting.
ESPN/ESPN2 could be done during college football season, they would just need to pick the right weekend, sometimes they have games all day, but somtimes, they have other shows like pool or classic boxing on the one of the two channels, every weekend is different,,,,,
