All three of these fighters have KO'd Golota in dramatic fashion. Golota has proven throughout his career to be very tough and skilled. It is possible the he out fought champions, Bowe twice, Bryd, and Ruiz. His losses to Tyson and LL where pretty much overlooked because hell it tyson and LL. So what does this say for Brewster? Is he really just that damn good to do what 3 prior champions couldn't? In his last 8 fights he won 7 by KO, and the other fight was his best friend who he admitted let his personal feeling get in the way of business. Yesterday Boxrec had brewster ranked 22. They had a world champion ranked #22 that is crazy. Out the the 21 fighters ranked over him, the only one i can really see beating brewster is Toney. VK and would be very good fights that could go anyway. So be honest with yourselves and please tell who could actually beat brewster and why?
Golota had all the talent in the world. But to be a great fighter and a great champion you need to have your head together. Mentally there is nothing up there. I still believe that your mentality in the ring needs to be the same level as your talent. Tyson was a bull for many years and he intimidated his opponents, but he proved on quite a few occassions that if you bullied him back he would collapse under pressure which he did twice against Holyfield, and against Douglas, Lewis, Williams and Mcbride. Golota did not like to get hit or rushed and that was a direct result of his mentality being weak.
Brewster has to sharpen his skills (especially his defense) up, continue to work on his cardio, and be sure to pace himself better. I don't like the roll of fat I saw around his waist a week or so before he fought Sergei. He can't let his midsection balloon up between fights. He needs to stick to a sensible diet, year round, like Hopkins, and then he can concentrate on his skills, and not his weight, in training camp.
In terms of natural ability, Brewster is up there with the best at the moment. He is incredibly powerful, has a chin of granite, and balls of steel. He has only himself to blame if he doesn't pull himself up by his bootstraps and bounce back from this loss.
IMO he is the most gifted (I consider courage and fortitude gifts as few possess them as Brewster does) American heavyweight and the most dependable "line of defense" we have. He is better than Rahman, even if he isn't as skilled.
He's a true gentleman and a great ambassador for the sport. I wish him luck, and I'll be backing him in most of his upcoming fights.
I just watched the fight again, Did anyone notice that Brewter is a righty, yet he Kd Golota 3 times with his left, how powerful is this guy?
he has good power but golota didnt exactly prepare himself either. he was 10+ lbs heavier than his previous fights and hadnt a bead of sweat on his body

golota was the opposite of tough. he was a mental weakling which is why he never became a champion
I'm sure Brewster is still a major factor in the HW division, once he gets his eye fixed, he put up a great fight for a guy who lost an eye in the 2 or 3 round (i think). As for what he did to Golota, it was a smart move, You want to get Golota out ASAP, cause Golota has proven that even if he winning that he'll just snap & use your nut sack as a speed bag.
Brewster done well, credit to him, but we all know that he just caught a cold golota......he was a bit lucky whether you like it or not?
If he lets this success go to his head, he will get KO'd himself.
Let's not get too enthusiastic over this win.
I agree completely. Brewster looked good, but I think that fight said more about Golota being cold than Brewster being the next Tyson. The Meehan fight is still too fresh in my memory for that. Brewster proved to be a classy guy and now I want to see his next fight regardless of his opponent. I think he did well, and he's earned some of my respect, but I need to see a few more fights before I jump on the "Brewster's the best" bandwagon.
your a moron sander has always been a little fat, he pressured vitali and hit him with a stight left of course vitali would get wobbled but he came back lmao, brewster isnt a god your an idiot stop posting you already making yourself look bad
First off you little sh!t, learn how to post in english.
Secondly, Sanders was in pathetic shape for that Vitali fight. He looked great in the first round pressuring Klitschko and tagging him with a few shots. Now if he could've kept that up for 2 more rounds, he probably would've won, but since he didn't, he paid the price.
I never said Brewster is a god, but it seems as though you think Vitali Klitschko is. So basically your "GOD":
1) Quits when he is clearly ahead in a fight because his shoulder hurts.
2) Never beat a notable opponent.
3) Postponed his upcoming fight with Rahman multiple times because he got a boo-boo.
4) Has less boxing skills than Bob Barker.
Hit the bricks, asshole. I don't got time for you English-lacking, Klitschko nuthugging ass. Keep worshiping that bum, Vitali, and sooner or later you will come to the realization that he was always a terrible champion with limited skills.
the heart he has cause he does take some ass whippins and keep going... it'll be interesting to see who king lets him fight next... ruiz? TOS?
I think king will try to milk him a little, maybe throw him in there With TOS, hoping he can do to him what Mesi did, a quick KO. to try and raise Brewster's stock. I don't think he'll give brewster a Ruiz, simply because ruiz is tough, and would make for a boring fight.
Brewster simply decided to test Golota early. His team knew damned well the big Pole was gonna' need time to get his legs under himself and et his confidence up, so Brewster did the smartest thing possible .... rush him with bombs, in combos.
agree with you mostly i do... good chin he has, great chin he does not....
seriously, i think he does of good job of covering up, so it appears that he takin a beating when he's really not.. he's a tough guy no doubt, but i think he can be KO'd and i just cant rate his chin as high as tua, ike or vk, til i see him take some more shots and not be hurt...
thats understandable. You maybe right, he does cover up pretty good. Maybe he is not getting hit as clean as it appears. Lets try this. Brewster has a Great Heart, and a Good Chin.
don't forget Etienne is one of the hardest hitters in the HW div, his problem has always been his chin, so for him to hurt brewtser or anyone else is understandable. And as for Meehan, when he was landing all of those shots in the 6th round, Brewster turned it around with 1 shot with 20 sec left in the round, and could have KO'd meehan that round if not been for the bell, so he has shown to have an out standing chin, Remember fighters with the best chins have been down in the HW div over time, Rocky,ali,frazier,foreman,holyfield, and even LL. Peple are quick to say that LL had a weak chin, but he was only down 2 times in his whole career

he has a GOOD chin, but he did get dropped and was hurt by etienne and meehan so i dont think he a GREAT chin... against wlad i thought he did good job of covering up and avoiding getting hit by alot of clean punches... when he did get hit cleanly he went down...

He got robbed..
Who won the decision...Byrd and Ruiz
Who got beat up....Byrd and Ruiz
by that logic then byrd never had the belt cause he would have lost it to fres.... i dont think het got robbed, it was two close fights and you have to BEAT the champ, which he didnt convincingly do... event those that thought golota won, didnt have him winning by alot... not every fight that is close but you dont agree with is a robbery..
Damn, if you don't consider brewster to have a great chin, then you will never be pleased. I doubt if anyone could take as many clean shot from Wlad as he did.
