You guys cannot be serious. If you are, you do not follow heavyweight boxing. Pianeta may not be one of the very top contenders, but that's entirely different than saying you haven't even heard of him. He's 28-0, and yes I realize Boxrec rankings are simply a computer algorithm, but he is 14th on there. So all of you are saying you've never (at least not in the recent past) even visited Boxrec and checked out the top 20 heavies listed?? Come on now . . . get real. AND, let us not forget that had HBO said yes, it would have been Jennings . . . and all Sauerland fighters were a "NO".
No, it wasn't an undercard. They would have broadcast it LIVE, several hours before the Mayweather card even started. Two completely separate events.
This Pianaeta is a good fighter! It is delusional that some people here think that Wladimir could fight a much stronger fighter in a voluntary fight!
That's true. The fact is, American's have lost interest because they are no longer the best. It's really as simple as that. That's why HBO was trying to hype up Arreola, and they were going to try and do the same thing with Jennings, had they secured Mayweather.
When I look at the Brone Rees fight.... 4000 people in thereatsch Yesterday we had a regional boxing event with 3000 people inside the arena! Even in the smallest county of germany. boxing is just on the downhill in the usa. K2 wont really care if they are on HBO or not. They do theire own thing here in europe.
Pianeta looks 6'3-6'4 makes no difference because his ship is sunk. He could be 7'0 or 5'9 he's going' down. After this payday,Pianeta will be able to afford all the Gobbagol he wants.
Hahaha that's a great idea actually. Or just a SHW division so heavy's from their own weight can fight eachother. The length and weight advantage Waldocop has over most heavy's is simply unfair. But too much money for everyone to be make with him beating up on them :verysad
