    Meehan would be good cause he just beat a top 20 fighter (Touch of ****) and plus Golota seems to be on a roll with white fighters. :!:

    He would definitely beat Moorer because Golota is a very experienced boxer and knows how to beat southpaws. Hell, Golota can even fight southpaw if he so chooses. He knocked McMuffin out in a south paw stance.

    After he beats one of these guys, with a touch of sprinkles from Don King, he'll be in line for a title fight. Hopefully against one of the Russians and not Wlad.

    I scored it a draw, and it was indeed controversial. Valuev was in control during the second half when Chagaev wasn't doing very much.

    There were a fair share of fans who felt Ruiz was jobbed on the decision.

    Both bouts were controversial and could have gone either way.

    I'll agree with this and I'll add Golota's defense sucks big time, he almost fights like a heavyweight Gatti. He doesn't have those quick reflexes he used to,thus making him very easy to hit. This is why a fight with a big puncher like Peter probably wouldnt go well for Golota. Golota has a good chin, but we all know it's crackable, while Peter has a better chin, but apparently not too good...I believe Golota has very good chance at beating anyone except Wlad and Peter.

    Also, he got shaken up in the first round, but IMO he wasn't as hurt as I orginally heard. But he was definitely shaken up. However he was able to do somethng he rarely is able to, and that is recoupe after being hurt, survive and take control.

    I sense this fight gave Golota a LOT of confidence and I think he wants it very badly. He just might get it!!!!!!

    :good

    I would have to disagree with Miss Mariola about his win over McMuffin the biggest win in his career. I'd say his wins over Nicholson, Witherspoon and T-Rex Sanders were bigger wins and of course he was the true winners against Byrd and Ruiz for the champ belts.

    But yes, a very important win for Golota. This will give him great confidence. He proved to himself he can still bang with the big boys and McMuffin was laying some heavy punches on him. But he got himself a TKO win and a little belt. Now it's time for the bigger belts.

    The Irish were giving you ****? Were you wearing your red and white colors? About how many flag waving Poles were in the arena?

    Damn that first round has me concerned. I am glad he weathered it and he did show lots of improvement from the bates fight but I am real concerned about that first round.

    I do not think Morrer or Kali are easy fights for him. I am praying that he took Mcmuffin lightly (Mentally speaking. We all know he trained his arce off.)

    I just have that Lewis/Brewster feeling for some reason. I am not even excited about his win over Mcmuffin due to that first round.

    I don't think Golota will ever (especially at this point) solve the first round sitting duck dilemma. He is, was and always will be a liability when it comes to this. He will always come in a bit nervous and every fighter he faces knows this and will jump on him. Sometimes he can get thru it and sometimes he can't. If he's not facing a big puncher he usually can. Ruiz tried jumping on Golota and he ended up on his ass. He showed us he still has a good chin and has a good chance at beating anyone except Wlad and Peter. Oh and probably Shannon Briggs...

    OK, Nevermind my last post. I just watched the entire fight and Besides the first round Andrew looks ****IN AWESOME!!!!

    He was very quick with the jab, His movement was great as always and he weathered the early storm, Which it truly and honestly is way too nerve racking to watch but when you see him from round 2 on you forget all about it.

    WAY TO GO GOLOTA!!!!

    For the first time ever, he recovered from being hurt and came back to stop his opponent.

    Well, first time in a long time, anyway. Pouha hurt him badly, he barely recovered and knocked him out the next round.

    It's been a long time since we have seen Golota show this kind of warrior heart.

    yeah i thought after round 1 he looked great. He was bobbing and weaving and throwing those golota combinations. I also noticed he did a great job hittin the body.
