Wladimir Klitschko vs. David Haye - Sept or Nov - Germany

Calzaghe? :rofl

 

I hope this **** is on, if Haye wins it boosts him p4p imo.

 

Really?



SOME Current WBO Champions:

Sergio Martinez (though also the lineal/Ring/WBC champion)
Juan Mauel Lopez (both weight classes he's been champion in, WBO only)
Juan Manuel Marquez (though also the lineal/Ring/WBC champion)
Ivan Calderon (though Ring champion--- and WBO champ in his previous division)
Fernando Montiel (though also the WBC champion and also WBO champion in two other weight classes)
Timothy Bradley (was also a unified champion with the WBC title)

Even the guys with more than one title just paid sanctioning fees because they like to give money away?

Last IBO Light Welterweight champions:

Hatton and Pacquiao...the last two lineal champions of that division. Hmm. Of course, nobody cares about those titles according to you. Interesting, no?

 

This fight most probably won't go the distance and if it does... really, Haye is never going to win a fair decision against Wlad.

Holding and clinching are part of boxing. Any top level boxer does it. Sure, such holding becomes more effective/useful with the bigger man, but each type with its own advantages. Constantly hitting on the back of one's head is a lot worse.

Germany does have a bad reputation for... bad decisions, BUT I don't think such decisions will have any impact on the outcome. If anything, it's the fact that Wlad is fighting at 'home'.

Thing with Klits, they are labelled boring, but they fill stadiums easily. So props to Wlad.

 

Tell me how many gift decisions Wlad got in his career?

Damned there really are too many dumb posters around. Should all get banned. I guess ther would hardly 100 posters left then.

 

Wlad is IBF, WBO and most importantly, RING magazine champion, it's obvious looking at your location that you're biased, but to anyone with a brain it's obvious who the champion of the HW division is :hi:

 

Manny Pacquiao is also the WBO welterweight champion :good

 

Yes he is. Hector Camacho and Bernard Hopkins have been WBO champs as well. Too bad nobody cares about that title, ey?

 

Cotto and Paul Williams were former WBO Welterweight champs as well.

 

It's a long-assed list of credible names, really. But keep going, because it's never wrong to fight stupid.

 

Yes.

That idiot mike464 is getting a big ration of owneage :yep

Of course, Joe Calzaghe was also WBO champion for a long time, it would be funny to hear our brit friend's opinion of that, I'm sure he thinks that Calzaghe's WBO reign means nothing.

 

The Olympiastadion does not have a full roof; it has 'covered seating' (meaning the roof covers the seats), but so does Wembley, and Wembley's capacity is larger.

If you want a full roof, the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff (2.5 hours from London, where Calzaghe sometimes fought) is the second largest in the world with a fully retractable roof and has as many seats as the Olympiastadion before you start seating people on the pitch area.

I doubt it's got more to do with venues than it has to do with Wlad being 'the champ'.

 

shame the fight is happening in germany. germans are boring ****s.

 

How much of an achievement do you guys think it would be for Haye to stop him? Do you reckon it's probable?

 

There is no 'champ' in the heavyweight division and if you never heard.... Haye has won the WBA championship, a more historically significant and generally more respected alphabet title than the WBO and IBF titles.
