    No. It'd just mean although who said Wlad was **** would be right. The rest of us wrong.

    It's maybe fine from Wlad's point of view for the reasons you mentioned, but would probably be a point of chagrin for at least a score of more deserving contenders.

    I can't really give a serious take on the matter till I study Dino's incisive insights on this potential match-up.

    The Brit forum would have to be shut down for weeks as half their users will be locked away on suicide watch.

    So now you're trying to discredit Pulev whenever you get the chance.

    "Wlad will duck Pulev" "Pulev will knock him out"

    :lol::patsch

    The stage act has been in place for a while to prep everyone.

    Klitschko-Briggs next if Klitschko-Jennings don’t reach agreement

    [FONT=Arial Narrow, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][/FONT]
    This content is protected

    Wladimir Klitschko’s manager Bernd Bönte confirmed that if an agreement cannot be reached by all parties involved for a fight between unified heavyweight champion of the world Wladimir Klitschko and world ranked Bryant Jennings, that it would be the last American heavyweight world champion Shannon Briggs who would be given the opportunity. The site of the next fight for Klitschko is said to be New York City, which happens to be where Briggs was born and raised.
    Upon hearing the news Briggs stated the following:
    “It makes all the sense in the world for Klitschko to fight me in New York next. From an economical business standpoint it’s a no brainer. I was born and raised in New York and the venue will be packed with my supporters. It seems like everywhere I go my ‘Let’s go champ’ is chanted. I’m the most colorful fighter since Muhammad Ali. Wlad you said you want what the people want. The numbers don’t lie, as you saw the German media giant BILD had a resounding 72% wanting Briggs-Klitschko to fight next. Make it happen Wlad. LET’S GO CHAMP!!!!”

    Boente has said more than once that Brigg is not even being considered, another "backflip" by Bernard. This fight sucks and everyone knows it, K2 camp are a bunch of liars if this fight goes ahead.

    Challenge Tyson Fury he'll take it

    So the Jennings talk was smoke and mirrors all along. Has there even been any comment fron the Jennings camp regarding a Wlad fight?

    That's an awful fight. Really cringeworthy. Hope it doesn't happen.

    Jennings posted an edited image to Instagram on Wednesday morning of himself fighting Wladimir Klitschko. Jennings implied that the fight would take place on April 25. His promoter, Gary Shaw, said he had been contacted by Shelly Finkel, Klitschko's adviser. That was all Shaw said he could say. A message for Jennings was not returned.
