    Sidorenko was a solid titlist...Skilled little operator. Nothing special though, more suited to the amatuers, tended to box brillantly for a little while then switch off. Only seen a highlights package of that fight though. Agbeko fought him before Wlad won the title.

    He grinded down Perez..who looked pretty shop worn and really wasnt anything more than an exceptional puncher at best. Perez got an absolute gift against Kirolov, who of course Vic raped.

    Saw him smash some no name fighter on a Versus card just before he won the title...Couldnt really gauge much off that fight.

    He is the probably the least accomplished and H2H weakest titlist at the weight. But that doesnt mean he isnt a bull strong puncher who has shown a pretty good chin.
    He presents a dangerous challenge for Vic, whilst probably being a little to slow and limited to beat him.

    Agbeko hasnt fought anyone of note. Sidorenko is a Kirilov clone great technician, but thats it. I saw Agbeko fight Gonzalez in his last fight, the first three rounds he was in all sorts of trouble, but Gonzalez didnt have the firepower to capatalise. Another weakness in his armour is he has hasnt been active only having two fights in the last couple of years, sure he has ko chance against anyone, but as soon as The Raging Bull lands the first bomb on his jaw , survival and defence are going to be the only things on his mind.
    You have to remember Vic spars boys anywhere from bantamweight to light middle, his manager Elias Nasser has told me they change sparring partners from round to round so Vic's defence is always in check and he is always ready for what anyone is ready to throw at him. And when you talk about sparring partners his team use a huge variety - Lovemore Ndou, Lenny Zappavigna, Vanes Matriosyan, Billy Dib, Dean Livanos, Yhonny Perez, Daniel Ponce de Leon, David Torres the list is endless and world class. And furthermore the BULL is battle hardened going for his fourth fight in less than a year.
    GO THE RAGING BULL !!!!!
    KO 6 !!!:happy

    JULY 11!!!!

    Thanks for the tip but we (I) can't wait that long!

    I was psyched up for May (from Vic's own words) and then hanging off the internet buzz that suggested June 6!

    Oh well, I am still grateful. At least it leaves the door open for another potential fight in Nov or Dec too...!
