W Klitschko...The end...

Anything can happen.

For the number of fights he's had, and his actual age, he's a lot "younger" than most fighters would be. He was stopped 3 times but really hasn't even been in punishing fights.

None of those names look good enough to beat him. But maybe one of them can prove me wrong and rise to the occasion, and at heavyweight especially it can, in theory, all be ended with a single punch.

I think he'll carry on until he loses. It might not even be dramatic. He might slow down or get injured (like his brother) and lose a decision.

 

He's gonna be 39 next month so I give him another 2 or 3 years then hopefully another American will pull a Brewster, or Purrity on his a$$..

Grabbing, holding, pulling down on the head, fouling, he couldn't get away with that BS, fighting here in the states, or he would be DQ'D..

I'm not a fan of Russian or Soviet Bloc fighters, not my cup of tea, I can't wait to have an American heavyweight champion! again! It's coming soon::deal

 

I think it's more likely that Wlad retires as champ than he loses to anyone out there in the near future if he stays motivated etc , but you never know in sport. No matter how good you are or how good you've been, you can still lose on a given occasion. It's HW boxing and Wlad is getting up there in age.

 

He will either retire, or the end will come suddenly, and unexpectedly.

 

If it's that simple then why haven't the yanks sent over a fighter that can do the job on Wlad?? I

 

This. If he keeps on fighting, eventually there will be another Sanders in his future...he'd be smart to retire if he makes it to 28 successful title defenses.

 

He'll be 39 in March. Really there is not much left for him to accomplish. I know he wants that WBC belt which he would of had long ago if it wasn't in his brother's possession. He's got Jennings on April and if he wins I suspect Fury will be next, which will be a great promotion. After that anyone's guess but if he called it quits I'd be cool with it. I think 2016 will be his last year in the sport. 4 more fights would be my guess.

 

Deep thoughts…

Waldo has controlled 7.4% of the post-Sullivan history of the heavyweight division.

You can thank me later.

 

Very cool :good

 

at SS66,

from what I've seen, and I don't really bother much at all anymore... but that Non Soviet or Non American fighter, looks likely to be another Non American in Anthony Joshua.

I don't follow well enough to be sure, but this lad looks the Real Proper Part and England might have that truly historical and LONG Sought after True Bigman.

which has ALWAYS been the vain of their whole British Boxing History.

 

What do Jersey Joe Walcott and Michael Spinks have in common?

They both ended the title run of a long reigning heavyweight champion, directly or indirectly, and were not even perceived as the biggest threats to those champions.

One day Wlad will step into the ring with an opponent, who might be seen as nothing more than a credible challenger, and he will suddenly look old.

I don't know what the outcome of the fight will be, but it will be the beginning of the end.

 

Oh that day will be coming sooner than you think, the guy is 39 how many heavyweights, or any other weights have had success beyond 40? Exclude Hopkins and Foreman both genetic freaks, even George was outhustled by Holy,and Morrison guys much younger than himself..

Nobody stays on top forever..

Besides Wlado would rather fight tomato cans like Alex Lepai, in cozy Germany where he can get away with all of his BS..

 

seems like his toughest fights are in front of him, Jennings is young, mentally tough and has a plan but I think Vlad beats him, Fury he should beat but Wilder showed some versatility in his last fight, took a punch well and had decent stamina and power, That would be a big win for him but a damaging loss depending on how and if ....If Wlad can make it past that he should get out, no Briggs, no reward and still a risk ....who else would be left and worthy
