    You do realize his title shot is on schedule for this summer not next summer? The terms are being worked out between Universum an GB for the Dzindziruk fight. It is supposed to happen in July I think. Kirkland will probably stop him. Valero already is a world champion and is more dangerous as far as one punch power but both are very aggressive and very entertaining. Valero is a better boxer but James' relentless aggression is too much for anyone except Paul Williams..or at least I think imo

    Just a side note. Listening to Billy Lyell, Duddy's next opponent, says Kirkland doesn't punch ANYWHERE close to as hard as Pavlik. And that is with Pavlik wearing 16 oz gloves in sparring.

    Kirkland would knock Williams out.

    :shock::shock:

    Good lord!!! Hell of an idea Relentless! That would be a bad ass fight. Paul has been looking better at the higher weights, and Kirkland has been putting on some damn good shows.

    Could Paul keep the distance? Can Kirkland get inside and rock some bombs?? Very interesting fight, IMO. I'd buy that **** for sure.:yep

    Really good fight. Also Dawson Vs. Williams, lots punches thrown in that one, Kirkland by knockout. Dawson by knockout.

    Kirkland is one of my favorite fighters. Is the fight on the under card of the hatton fight definitely going to happen?
