Wladimir Klitschko vs. Chris Byrd II

the Wladdy of now isn't the same Wladdy, i think Byrd can beat him now. Wlad has confidence issues, Brew really fucked him up psychologically. if only Byrd had Brew's power that's hysterical!!! Like Brewster really actually "DID" anything... also amazed that I agree with Dan Sweeney too!! :eek: :eek: about DK.. well, this fight does seem somewhat possible if DK wins no matter the situation. I think that DK would only get options on WK, that will only last for a set amount of time!? So WK wouldn't be trading promoters, but would be making cash for DK in his future fights (correct me if I'm wrong here)... PLUS, this might help WK to not get starched in his first title defense if he's a champ making money for DK.. get the mob on WK's side.. about the fight byrd vs WK... they are both true fighters, both technical geniuses, so a great fight would be expected. The only times that I've seen WK lose, is when it gets into a brawl, a street-fight and he gets caught hard on the chin.. Byrd doesn't have that power, plus byrd is a clean tactician, so it will be a chess match, that will result in WK taking the technical edge and winning a paced UD.

I dunno, I think Wlad would have the psychological advatage over Byrd from the first fight. Did you forget Wlad punished and dropped Byrd twice before cruising to an easy UD? He would definately have the psycholigical advantage, and Byrd might be a little scared to repeat on what happened the first time. not necessarily, deep down, he might not think he's the same Wladdy, then his advantage is lost. he might think he believe he can still beat Byrd, but we'll find out when they get in the ring if he believes in himself or he's trying to keep the wolf from the door

it must be special crack the helps me see the truth clearer than others :D byrd beats wlad because wlad is washed up and has no stamina. also rahman will ko vitali in a minor upset. i believe rahman is focused and on his game right now ,rahman is ready to reagin the undiputed heavyweight championship the Wladdy of now isn't the same Wladdy, i think Byrd can beat him now.

Great news if it's true, wonderful, wonderful news if it's true. If you want something from King you have to give up something of your own as well. A couple of fights promoted by King is worth realizing a dream. Klitschko's probably have all the money they need from endorsments, of Hugo, Boss, and FILA, not to mention, there own promotion company. Now it's about redemption, and bringing the dream to a next level.

this would be the perfect fight for Wlad to get back on track. Bryd doesn't have any pop and his style is taylor made for Wlad. Unfortunately, the Wlad frenzy on these boards after Wlads knockout victory would be unbearable ;)

If Rahman wins vs. Vitaliy then I'll admit that your crack is something special. :D

.....Your hittin the crack pipe pretty hard today FIX. Vitali will not lose to Rahman and Wlad doesn't need a chin to whip the likes of Byrd and would dominate him from start to finish. it must be special crack the helps me see the truth clearer than others :D byrd beats wlad because wlad is washed up and has no stamina. also rahman will ko vitali in a minor upset. i believe rahman is focused and on his game right now ,rahman is ready to reagin the undiputed heavyweight championship

byrd woud ware him down and win by close ud or mid round stoppage. i think younger klit is finished and should carry his brothers belt around before v klit losses the belt to rahman. a rahman vs ruiz 2 could set up a byrd-rahman fight for the undisputed world title. .....Your hittin the crack pipe pretty hard today FIX.

sorry, but Byrd would own Wladimir now Wladimir has been listening to too much red hot chili peppers..i think the fight is pretty much out of him. time to be towel boy for vitali, wladdy. really ironic too because when I saw Wlad fight Larry Donald a few years ago, and then looked at a few of Vitalis fights, I clearly figured Wlad was the better of the two.(i was wrong) Really I didn't think that he looked that great against Shufford.

And considering that the number 1 spot in the IBF is not ranked, its really more like he's 5th. And I thought it was idiotic for Vitali to fight Rahman and thus risking to let King have all four belts, but if it meant that Wlad would get a shot, then it would make a lot more sense to have Vitali/Rahman. ....That's big V throwing his weight around quite nicely if that is what is happening here. God I would love that.

Wlad wins this one easily, he has by far the faster hands and the harder punches of the two, when he comes to fight. Byrd doesn't have the strength or power to wear Wlad down, it would be like the Williamson fight, minus the headbutt and the "knockdown", and Wlad would either knock him out/TKO, or just embarass him like last time. Wlad has nothing to be afraid of against Byrd, and when he knows that coming into a fight, he's a very dangerous man.

WK by UD or late KO. However, first guy w/ popwer WK would fight in a defence he probably get starched, but hey! At least they'll achieve they're dream (the K bros) for a short time. I'll believe this when I see an official annoucement, but it's sounding like Wlad signed w/da devil to get a match and DK knows WK would be a cash cow. ;) If Wlad signed with DK, maybe his next opponent will end up with too much vaseline on his legs ;) :D

Wlad never fough Larry Donald it was Vitali! And I can't believe I agree with Sweeny but he's right. Byrd gets hit way too often now and has absolutley no power! Wlad KHTFO! However, Wlad would probably get beat in his first defence.

byrd woud ware him down and win by close ud or mid round stoppage. i think younger klit is finished and should carry his brothers belt around before v klit losses the belt to rahman. a rahman vs ruiz 2 could set up a byrd-rahman fight for the undisputed world title.

...it's sounding like Wlad signed w/da devil to get a match and DK knows WK would be a cash cow. ;) Very sad but true. I don't know how Wladimir would sign with DK though, he represents himself with Klichko brothers' promotional company K2.

You are mixing the two brothers. Vitaliy is the one who is fighting Rahman, I think the article is talking about the little brother - Wladimir. If that's the case, it would be great, I would love to see Wladimir vs. Byrd II if Wladimir gets his head on straight. Yeah, you're right. I saw Wlad spelled with the V and had a brain fart.

...I believe it is definitely about Wlad and not Vitali. Wlad is ranked 6th in the IBF and most of the guys in front of him are commited to other things. If he made a deal with King then I could see it happening. He wouldn't have to worry about King poisoning him if he gives him options.

I agree, but he better focus on Rahman who poses a real threat, Byrd does not imo. You are mixing the two brothers.
