    Andrew Golota could never beat Wlad. No version of either... ever.

    Golota could win, should win but wont win because hell find a way to lose the fight.

    WK would be fighting a guy with similar size and possibly similar skills

    I do indeed believe Wlad would clinch him after taking a hard shot, then get his ****ing eyebrow bitten off and win by disqualification. :verysad

    Nothing similar about them except that they are both white. Not their size, and not their skills. Wlad is bigger, taller, longer reach, faster, much better technical fighter, much better defense, much better footwork, better jab (even though Golota's jab was his best weapon when he used it right), and Wlad had WAY more power than Golota. That's just the physical advantages... we don't even need to move into how fragile Golota's mind was. The man could NEVER... EVER win a title fight. Golota has been given a shot at the WBC, IBF, WBA and WBO titles and he has NEVER won. Hell, he even lost during his fight for the NABF title.

    Golota isn't on Wlad's level, not even close. Golota has never beat anyone even close to Wlad's level.

    Audley Harrison would Michael-Sprottify Wlad with an Olympic gold punch in round numero dos. :deal

    What Wladimir performances impress you more than Golota's performances against Riddick Bowe?

    Any of them. Riddick was **** by that time and never was that good to begin with. He was lazy and did good against much smaller and stylistically over matched former LHW Evander.

    I honestly think this could very well be a fight Golota will win because before the fight he'll realise that Wladimir isn't that hard to knockout once you hit him! However a similar situation could develop like in the Lewis fight, where Golota got hit hard and had a look of surprise at being hit that hard. I think its pretty close to be honest, Wladimir isn't impressive when he goes up against tall opponents in my opinion and Golota is quite a tall guy.

    I'd watch this fight though. Close potential outcome with every possibly that Golota will bite Wladimir in the eyes.

    So Wladimir's display v Corrie Sanders impressed you more than Golota beating the **** out of Riddick Bowe? :huh What a strange fellow you are.

    Wlad takes this. Though i'd like to see Wlads face if Golata could get his jab going. Mercer touched Wlads face up pretty good.

    I have to say wlad. Golota can be compared to brewster and I imagine wlad beats him the way he beat brewster.

    Wlad looked terrific against chag from start to end. Golota makes me smile against bowe, he starts with a solid jab and brutal hooks and his punches get progressively lower the more frustrated he gets.

    Bowe was shot from his habits of ballooning up to over 300lbs between fights, using too much dehydration/ Crash Dieting to lose weight in his training camps which became Fat Camps & absorbing big punishment. Chagaev was never too impressive anyway, but was suffering from Hepatitis & struggled badly while looking ill against the unknown Matt Skelton.

    Anyway Peak Golota was a tremendously talented Superheavy with great combination-punching skills, so he could stop Wlad in the first half if he puts on enough pressure to make Wlad uncomfortable. However, after the middle rounds, if Wlad is still standing & pumping his jab, Golota will start to get frustated... & when Golota gets frustrated, bad things happen.
