Arreola was Wlad's first choice, but Arreola's management wanted one more fight before facing Wlad next year. Looks like he'll be facing Maurice Harris on Sep 15.
Oh didnt know that. Thanks Then Wlad picking Wach makes more sense now. I thought we just gave up the Arreola fight
Given the circumstances, I don't have a problem with it and it's an acceptable defense. If Arreola or Povetkin was available and he was picking Wach, it'd be a different story.
He is having a Great Battle among with other Young Americans.. They all have the same opponent.. He is having a Fight of his Life against Obesity.
GIven what is out there, you cant' fault Wlad for taking on someone unknown, every now and then. At least Wach is undefeated and a big guy with KO power. Wlad just fought a string of good opponents..........give him a break.
True, Harris is coming off a decent win but I can't rate the guy too highly--his conditioning is worse than Arreola's. Grant would be a more substantial challenge.
not true. Dan Rafael said he contacted Klitschko's management and they said they are not looking at Wach.
