Nobody gives a **** about Golota, but I've noticed, Judah might be fighting. If he's fighting on the undercard of Rahman-Barrett, I think he's fighting a bum again, tsk tsk tsk.

If nobody gave a **** about Golota. Why do think Don King would be holding his events now at the United Center. Golota is responisble for bringing big time boxing back to Chicago. And if nobody gave a **** about Golota why would he get 3 title shots in a row. A now a possible title elimanator match vs Valuev. This site is just filled with rabbid Golota haters compared to other websites like ESB.

Does it have to do with Golota being polish? Probably not but I thought I might throw it out there.

It probably has something do with it. Golota is more popular in the United States than amongst people in Poland or people that speak Polish as a first language though.

Golota is not the dirtiest fighter in the world. he got into trouble twice in his career from lows blows that had alot to do with exhaustion and people never forget that. But they so easily forget how dominating Golota was in his fights vs Riddick Bowe. And how he fought like a champion in that fight dominating from a techinical standpoints and also standing toe to toe with Bowe, fightin in all out war.

That even made it worse. We all know that he could've beaten Bowe without the low blows but he's such an idiot that he still did it. It's either he's really dumb or in need of psychiatric help.

He was just tired and his hands were falling low. Almost all those low blows were unintentional Riddick Bowe is just as dirty a fighter as Golota is. He was hitting Golota flagrantly in the back the head all through the bout without recieving so much as a warning.

I am a quarter Polish though. My Mom Dad's Family are from the Tatra mountains regions in Poland near the town of Zakopane. I have some interesting pictures


These pictures are very old, from Zakopane region around the time of world war I. These are very historical pictures.


These are from I believe a Bishop's funeral

Maybe so but if he beats Valuev I think he is deserving of another title shot vs Ruiz.

....I never had anything against Golota but why the hell is he fighting an eliminator against anyone? That is utterly rediculous. If he gets a fight with Valuev as an eliminator to fight to Ruiz then I may quit watching boxing completely.

I'd never forget that 3 punch combo to Big Daddy's ballz after Golotta's corner forbid him to stop throwing body shots :boxing:

why, valuev aint **** in the division. golota is 0-2-1 in his last three, even if he beats valuev,which is a huge if, golota would still have a losing record over his last 4. that aint title shot worthy imo. i dont understand why people still want to see him fight, he cant win the big fights and is like 37 years old.

Because he put asses in seats. Something Floyd Mayweather and John Ruiz do not.

im sure if ruiz fought in boston or mayweather in michigan, they would sell out as well. but that doesnt matter, just because he fills seats does not make him worthy of a title. i mean if thats what boxing is coming to why watch?

tyson fills seats, does he deserve a title shot?

Problem is.. King OWNS Boxing
King owns Golota,
King owns the 3 Belts as well.

King has to keep his champs active and make it look like they are fighting top opposition.

Sad to say, but King keeps Golota as a contender whore and he keeps recycling him over and over: Byrd, Ruiz, Brewster.. Time for another round?

Shame for the sport! :eek:

shame for the sport indeed..but u guys have to admit one thing...if Golata can/does expose this big f**k...than goodtimes for us...word is he cant fight and is sh*t in that ring so i would give him props for that and wish him luck btu i also think that when y get ko'ed by Lamon Brewster in a round,its time to sit down and look at other options.

Golota could still be dangerous for some.. he'll always be a big guy and you can't take that away. It's just that he can't fight at the speed as Brewster charged him with... but he could still be used by King to:
a)Protect the WBA from whomever (In this case Valuev) In other words, you want my belt, you have to come through the gatekeeper/whore contender Golota
b)King still gets to make his money..

King doesn't have the most respected heavyweight belt, the WBC. Klitschko has it. And King hasn't nabbed him yet. Doesn't even seem like he likes Klitschko, which is just another reason why I think the Klitschkos suck. King has decent instincts for winning fighters. He sees through the Klitschkos too.

I guess you never read the story about the Klitschko's getting invited over to King's house. After the 1996 Olympics King offered both brothers a contract. He invited them over his house wined them dined them and then told them he was going to play the piano and sing for them. He got on the piano and began playing and both brothers were shocked to hear how good he played the piano and sang. Then while they were sitting there Vitali took a look on the floor and noticed that the keys were moving by themselves. The piano was on auto pilot. LOL!!!! At that moment Vitali pointed this thing out to Wladimir and both fighters were not amused at the fact that King was trying to manipulate them. They both said good night afterwards and decided that this guy was not a good person to deal with. Vitali has said this story to quite a few people and I am sure it got back to King one way or another so that is why King does not like the brothers, it has absolutely NOTHING to do with King being able to spot talent. King is not a scout, he is a money hungry scumbag who deserves to DIE!!! for real not for fake.

I hope they change this date of this venue back to July 23 instead of August 13. I think I might get my grandfather a ticket to this fight for Father's day.
