:good No unification when Byrd, Ruiz, Valuev, Brewster where Champions. It is not all about the Klitschkos.
I kind of agree. My only problem is that the brothers can pick and choose who they fight depending on each others strengths and weaknesses. This isn't unique. don king has done it for years when he's had control of 2 belts, but it's not ideal. Mando's can help stop this, but I agree, it's up to the contenders to get themselves up to that level.
Valuev vs. either Klitschko would be HUGE. It's not as though Valuev is protecting an undefeated record. He might as well give it his best shot and cash out. We're talking box office money here if they were to fight in Germany. Better yet, put a ring in the middle of Red Square and you've got a real event.
This was a joke, right? Busier, he only fought once in 4 years, where as Wlad was fighting 3 times a year for the past 4 years.
That is exactly right. The Klitschkos in general, and Wladimir in particular, are an impediment to boxing. Although outside the ring they are everything a champion should be, it is inside the ring that they are creating the problem. They get all these easy fights, then play around and take forever to knockout the bums who are just standing there and doing nothing. This is incredibly boring to watch and ultimately destructive to the sport. The Klitschkos are the best advertising that ufc has to offer.
Their the only real names out there who aren't old enough to be eligble for social security. Until some guy comes and beats them, they deserve to have the belts. Having a guy like Tony Thompson as champion wouldn't be much better.
