    The IBF plans a tourney to determine the next mandatory challenger for Wladimir Klitschko.

    Who will come out victorious?

    Boytsov
    Mormeck
    Dimitrenko
    Banks

    Did all 4 agree....and wtf happened last time? I don't trust IBF Tourneys anymore. The KGB ruined it for me.

    Povetkin won the last tourney in 2007.

    I heard Wlad ducked him several times.

    Looks like Boytsov will be the favourite like Kessler going into the tourney.

    Banks is sparring with Wladimir all year long...:think

    Banks for the upset! :happy

    Sparring match with Wladimir in 2011.

    i think banks takes it.

    atleast the wnner of this tourney will have a credible challenge. mean if mormeck can beat any two of the fghters in that 4, he should be considered top 10 material, in my book.

    Neither of these guys is anything special (at HW). I'm not sold on Boytsov but I think he would take it, while Dimitrenko would be his toughest opponent.

    Both Boytsov and Dimitrenko would destroy Banks.

    Boytsov and Dimitrenko are clear favourites over the other two.

    I am very surprised the IBF can find 4 guys willing to fight a tourney. With the way title shots are going, they don't need to do this to get a shot. Mormeck and Dimitrenko were even offered the Dec. 11th date. I'll believe this when I see it.

    It's about getting very good paydays and exposure without fighting the Klits, because Pov already shown you can backout afterwards (or fight some lesser "champion" instead by getting mandatory over there).

    PS we have a Mormeck voter!!! :blood :D Why isn't this poll public?

    Boytsov-Banks would be a hell of a final! Let the bodies hit the floor! This I wanna see.
