    What a meaningless fight. Really getting sickening this crap in the HW division. :-(

    I think I can nail this one right on the head...

    Round 1 - Wlad slapps down Rahman's jab attempts and connects with his at will. He finally throws a straight right towards the end of the round and wobbles Rahman.

    Round 2 - More of the same for about 30 seconds. Wlad then becomes a bit more aggressive and lands his jab a few times and fires a right that hurts Rahman. The onslaught begins and Rahman goes down at the mid-way point of the round. He gets up and then gets stopped when the ref steps in at the 2:18 mark of the round.

    That's it.

    BORRRRRRRRRING. :bart

    Of course, you ARE aware of the fact that Rahman is more or less a last minute replacement.....Aren't you?

    You expect a right hand in the first round? Sounds exciting!

    klitschko gets too much respect here. sure he should win but anyone that can punch has a chance and rahman has experience.

    I am not a huge fan of Wlad but Glass Jaw Rahman was a replacement opponent with only 6 weeks notice.

    Wlad does not slap down the jab of orthodox fighters only Southpaws.

    The fight will be a nice way for me to kill time on Saturday afternoon I am glad HBO is shwing it live.

    It is Wlads mandatory, because Povetkin pulls out.

    He's not really a mandatory, but more of a substitute, in much the same way that Bert Cooper was against Evander Holyfield in 1991.

    Rahman is sooo bad. I mean, even an old, shot & extremely slow Oleg Maskaev was able to catch up to him & put him down like an old dog.

    But stranger things have happened in the ring. Rahman is prob counting on trying to land one big right hand. That is, before he's blasted out of there.
