    Wlad would win by murder.

    This fight was like watching a tough man contest, and the sad thing is UK and American fans want this.

    Just think for a second, and realize that Arreola up until the knockout was out jabbing and outboxing Stiverne pretty handidly.

    Klitschko rips Bermane a new one.

    People are so easily drawn into hype it's not even funny.

    Wlad by KO. His jab is too good.

    Wlad is great at neutralizing Stiverne's best weapon, his over hand right.

    He managed to do it against the must faster David Haye.

    Stiverne is bigger, stronger, and more durable, but I think Wlad does a Leapai job on him.

    Doesn't hold him much, but keeps him at bay with jabs and right hands.

    Holds when he has to though.

    Stiverne does a have a puncher's chance though.

    If Arreola can land that many punches on Stiverne, then Vlad will have an easy time as he is totally superior to Arreola and hits much harder, has great defense, esp. against the fight hand...............

    People need to realise that Arreola was never that good, not even a top 10 heavy so while it was a good win for Stiverne lets not go over board on the hype.

    I think even a faded Wlad is too much for Stiverne. Styles makes fights as the old adage goes and style wise Wlad has the clear advantage.

    Stiverne is a counter puncher and looks a bit awkward when moving forward and he doesn't have the agility to be a in and out fighter so will get picked off from the outside. Wlad is too cautious to be drawn in to be countered like Arreola so Stiverne will have to cut the ring off and chase Wlad and that isn't his style.

    Wlad has another opportunity to have a career defining fight with Stiverne. We will see the first undisputed champion since Lewis beat Holyfield and it's probably his last chance to have a fight that will be remembered as all his other defences have been as a whole forgettable. Let's hope it's a good fight however it pans out.

    Yup can't see Stiverne connecting at all. The thing is if a counter puncher fights someone with significantly longer reach than them there is a possibility they get laid out WHEN countering.

    Wlad will feint, Stiverne will go, then Wlad will nail him with a massive shot and it's all over.

    Wlad might also jab him into oblivion as Arreola managed to land plenty jabs through stiverne's guard. Stiverne has next to no chance, I don't see this as being competitive at all.

    Wlad should win and by KO as he will be allowed to grab , hold and generally do what he likes . But if by some miracle he doesn't win then I can't wait to see how this place reacts

    Stiverne is waaaaaay too stationary and waaaaaay too passive for Wlad. A one-sided beat-down is the only outcome I see for this fight.

    Are we to assume Wlad isn't on the way down? I mean from his recent fights, it hard to see any difference but the guy is what, 38 years old now? At this point , I would favour Wld to win a clear UD over Stiverne but could it be that it may well be a good time to fight Wlad in the next year or so?

    Wald out jabs him, keeps him at a distance and TKOs him by the 8th round. Stiverne keeps his left hand low which would invite Wlad's right hand. Also his slow work rate give Wlad the chance to be comfortable, dictate the pace, and out box him.
