Which HW will hold 2+ belts at the end of this year?

I don't know. All seems sketchy. How long has it been since a heavyweight unified? Been a while. You got Vitali to blame fo that of course. I don't know though. It feels to me that once Toney get the WBC and Wlad get Byrd's, Wlad will duck James Toney. James tOney would make Wlad look confused. Toney doesn't get hit by right hands, especially straight ones.

toney will hold two titles within the next 12 months

Don King will be the only one with 2 belts byt the end of this year. Seriously though, I think that this is how it'll go: Wlad/Byrd - Wlad Toney/Rahman - Toney This way King is left only with Brewster and will hang on to him for dear life, so forget him fighting any belt holder. Valuev keeps talking about fighting Wlad but I don't hear Wlad saying a word about it, so I don't think it's going to happen. I can only see Toney/Wlad and it's a tough fight to pick. In short, IF someone will have two belts, it's a winner of Wlad/Toney but chances of that happening are slim to none.

I'll say Wlad or Brewster, Wlad more-so though. He's going to fuck Byrd up, and I'd favor him over the Rahman/Toney winner and Valuev. Not so sure if Wlad can beat Brewster though.

I dont think the winner or Toney/Rahman can beat Wlad or Brewster. Toney is a nightmare style match up for Brewster. The size and power make Wlad a tall order, but to say Toney can't beat Brewster is non sense.

Anyone who thinks Brewster would dominate Wlad didn't see the first fight or they watched it with blinders. Now, the same thing coul unfold again but until Wlad punched himself out, he wasn't losing 3 seconds of that fight let a lone a round. In fact, the fight was nearly stopped the round before the TKO No, Wlad threw everything in the book at Brewster, his chin stood up, and he hurt Wlad and followed it up until it was stopped. Since than, Wlad's gone down 5 more times and Brewster's confidence has grown as he scored a few more impressive stoppage wins. Wlad was hanging in by a thread vs Peter. He was on queer street several times. Brewster has arguably as much chin as peter, compairable KO power, but he puts his shots together better and sharper, has way more stamina, and won't relent when he has Wlad hurt. It's still a bad style fight for Wlad. A relentless confident KO puncher vs a guy who loses his legs when cracked hard.

ive been reading than Wlad/Byrd is likely for April 22nd now after all the other bullshit we've been hearing... that being said, Byrd will retire after Wlad beats him. I dont think the winner or Toney/Rahman can beat Wlad or Brewster. i dont think valuev will fight to unify within a year. Winner or Wlad/Brewster is only person who can possibly hold two or more titles this year.

James Toney will dominate chris byrd while eating a sandwitch and drinking a milkshake between rounds and leaving to poop for rounds 4, 8 and 12. seriously (snicker) funny and true. have some good K.

Don't you think Byrd's alusive style will give James trouble though? James Toney will dominate chris byrd while eating a sandwitch and drinking a milkshake between rounds and leaving to poop for rounds 4, 8 and 12. seriously

Call me crazy but i say Rahman. I think he has the tools and the punch to beat Tony, and i think he could beat Vaulev and Byrd. I dont know about Wlad and Brewster. I don't either, truthfully, but I'd go with Wlad just because of that jab and how well he held against Peter (boring, yes, but effective). If Wlad can hold that efficiently and move and jab like that, then he's just going to be very tough for anyone to beat. But Brewster is fighting with a whole new confidence, and has that great chin and left hook. Tough call. But I went with Wlad.

Don't you think Byrd's alusive style will give James trouble though? Maybe, but Byrd has slipped a lot in the last two years and been inactive. Watch the Oquendo fight and think how bad it would have been if JT was in there with him. Byrd's slowed a step, and that puts him in the trenches. Toney breaks him down, possibly stopping him late.

Call me crazy but i say Rahman. I think he has the tools and the punch to beat Tony, and i think he could beat Vaulev and Byrd. I dont know about Wlad and Brewster. hasim rahman has perhaps the most overrated ko punch in boxing today. its also important to note that he was ud'd by john ruiz ill say toney if he takes on rahman and byrd this year, or if wlad fights byrd and valuev, then him. if brewster fights anybody with a belt, he has a shot for 2 as well

Don't you think Byrd's alusive style will give James trouble though? no, i dont. byrd hasnt been elusive since the stone age. toney knows how to deal with brawlers. but he also knows how to deal with boxers, especially a putz like byrd.

ill make it up for you, toney by UD. Don't you think Byrd's alusive style will give James trouble though?

I think Toney could hold two belts by the end of 2006. But Byrd would give him trouble, I still can't make up my mind on that fight. ill make it up for you, toney by UD.

Brewster will smoke Wlad if they fight again. His confidence is high, and he has the lungs and combonation punching Peter lacked to put the nails in the coffin. Brewster comes out smoking, and once he cracks the glass he won't relent until it's broken. Wlad has clearly stated he prefers a Byrd fight, and if that doesn't happen, he'd look to Valuev before Brewster.
