ug...according to cnnsi...Wlad just beat Raymond Brewster. does anyone even follow boxing there? I'd like to see Wlad vs. the winner of Ibragimov/Chagaev.
I do not have a complain about mando's.But I wanted to see that they must change voluntary defence's stipulation.
I want to see him fight Holyfield. Its a great payday for Wlad and Holy, and I think Holy has what it takes in his heart to try and win. I do think Wlads power will be too much for him though, and if Holy cant make something happen early hes going to get hurt.
Time for Corrie Sanders. Brewster is defeated, Purity is retired. That leaves only Sanders. After that (and if he wins), he can do whatever he wants.
Brewster was probably named mandatory because there are so few mandatories to choose from,seeing as how the four different orgs avoid stepping on each other's toes.
Obviously the Chagaev/Ibragimov winner. But since this fight is scheduled for October he should take a fight inbetween, I don't want to see Wladdy out of the ring for 6 months or more when he is in his prime right now, he shouldn't waste time. Get Rahman or Valuev.
He cannot fight winner of Maskayev/Peter next because this spot is reserved for Vitaly. Ibragimov/Chagayev is in October so they wouldn't be ready for next big fight before January. This leaves 6 months for Wlad and he for sure may fight someone in the October. I think he may consider someone from the: Holyfield, Valuev, Liakhovich, Golota, Rahman or IBF will assign him a mandatory challenger which may be .... Byrd or Brock. He may seriously think also about next shot for Sanders .. that would be cool.
I dont want to watch Wlad take on Americans like Rahman,Hollyfield,and so on.Bring on real fighters from Russia or Ukraine! Wlad vs Virchis would be a true thriller! There are so many fresh faces from the countries of the former soviet union.There is no need to fight another one of those lame Americans!
Holyfield is the obvious fight. Holyfield is very very silly to keep on fighting when he has $500m dollars tucked away, but his head will roll.
