Wlad - Mormeck press conference pics

Exactly. Mormeck was 215 his last fight....and he's in better shape than a lot of other heavies.

And you have the fact that Arreola, Helenius, and others all said no to Dec 10th against Wladimir. Wladimir can only fight who is willing to fight him.

 

If Mormeck is "tiny", than so was Tyson, Frazier, and many others.

And as I said, who else is Wladimir supposed to fight? Arreola said no. Helenius said no.

 

he was a decent titlist at cruiser, no more. He's shite at heavy. Hard to blame Klit when the division is on a life support machine.

In one of those pictures Mormeck is even pointing at Wlad as if to say 'he's the main man', it's a total joke. It's like an old boys club where the pally fighters are all making millions for what are practically exhibition fights. Which mugs are funding this nonsense?

 

What do you mean by "which mugs are funding this nonsense?". No one is forcing anyone to buy a ticket to the fight. I think it should be close to 50,000 in attendance and not a single one of them will have a gun put to their head with instructions to purchase a ticket.

 

exactly, they're mugs who will buy the line that Mormeck is a real threat, so clueless are they.
As long as these chancers (Klitschkos, Haye, Mayweather etc.) can get away with filling arenas and thus their pockets fighting tomato cans, they will. Mug fans are helping to kill the sport for the diehards.

 

I just don't see how you can blame fans for wanting to watch a fight....Don't you think all of the fighters who turned Wladimir down are at least partly to blame? I mean, Arreola was Steward's first choice. He said no, among others who said no.

What else is Wladimir supposed to do? I'd rather see him fight anyone and stay active, rather than just sit out. He already lost too much time over the last 2-years with an injury and the entire Haye debacle.

 

whats the point?

 

I don't recall too many people complaining when Derek chisora was going to fight Wlad. We all knew he had virtually no chance, but we didn't really moan about Wlad taking the fight.

I don't think Wlad is to be blamed, much. It's the stupid diehard fans that turn up just to see an exhibition fight.

 

Where is the WBA strap?

 

The ten or fifteen above him in the shitty rankings. I don't believe for one minute that not one of them will get in the ring with Wlad. Fight ****ing Audley (I am kidding), at least he could reach Klits chin

 

Name a title fight where the disparity between the two fighters was greater...I don't just mean physically

 

It's quite simple actually...Wladimir can only fight those who are available and willing to fight.

If your logic makes you feel better then so be it....It would appear that Wlad doesn't rematch anyone which is a shame. This is an appalling fight and deep down you know it...a match should be precisely that, not a **** poor mismatch.
