    And Mike Tyson biting Evander's ear off wasn't cowardly?

    I think a firm punch in the nose would be suitable medication for Albert.

    I was hoping King would coax him into fighting in August, first. Oh well....September it is.

    Just keep Golota off the ski slopes!

    :D

    Yeah, I was hoping for that too. Looks like Golota is not exactly following the Foreman blueprint, but September will have to do. Let's just hope September doesn't get pushed back to October like it's been for the last 2 years. We have no time for that nonesense.

    Rums, what do you think about Golota's weight? Should he most definitely try to come back down to his standard 238? I think he's too slow at 249 that's for sure and even when he got smoked by Brewster he was 248 in that fight. What is your opinion? At age 39 can he still do it? Should he even try, or would he risk over training?

    There are a few to choose. At this time it's all about the money.

    I guess I'm alone in hoping that Golota dont' take on too much, too soon. A few more months, and an extra tomato can or two won't make that much of a difference, and it can mean being successful in this last run, and not.

    I was not overly impressed by the Bates fight, and I think Golota has alot of room to improve upon that.

    But its being said that King has his Golota plans already made, so I guess Golota will have to work out his bugs in the gym, and that being the case, I only hope that he can improve enough through training to deal with the increase in competition level as it is thrown at him. I think someone like TOS would possibly outbox Golota as he is, right now, and a loss would certianly derail this entire plight.

    But I may be wrong.....We'll see, though.

    Go Golota!

    Ya know, I was watching the first Bowe-Golota fight the other day, and man was this sadly a vivid reminder of how much Golota is now only a mere shell of his once superior former self.

    http://youtube.com/watch?v=8_k77s2Je9c

    This version of Golota died that night he had the car wreck in 1999. Look how magnificant that left hand of his was. The jab and left hook were so awesome and natural to him, NO other fighter could have competed. Straight, powerful right hands, awesome foot and head movement. Golota hasnt been the Golota we all fell in love with for nearly 8 years. As much as we hope he can one day revive the old days, it's never gonna happen. Now we only see glimpses and spots of how great he used to box. For the most part, he's just a much slower, big strong guy with some decent remaining skills, slaps with the left hook, paws with the jab and throws wide punches. He still has plenty of power and natural brute strength, but there's not much left.

    This is the REALITY of it.

    That said, I think he just might still have enough basic skills and power to become champ in today's wide open division. Maybe he'll get Bloodworth back and surprise us a bit in his next fight. Let's all just hope for the best.
