Irish heavyweight Kevin McBride is in line for a world title shot after recently signing a deal with infamous promoter Don King.
'The Clones Colossus', who ended the career of Mike Tyson last June, has been promised a bout with reigning WBO champion Serguei Lyakhovich.
Reports suggest the fight could take place in Boston as soon as August.
Lyakhovich recorded a shock of his own with victory over Lamon Brewster a few weeks ago, and is eager to make his first defence against the Monaghan man.
Lyhovich wins this fight by murder....
I guess there are worse "keep busy" fights Lyhovitch could take... like fighting my grandmother, whose been dead for fifteen years and probably still has better footwork than Mcbride.
Kevin McBride might be the best heavyweight of this era
Are you serious? I havent seen a single fight of him, not even his fight with Tyson. Is he really good?

i think that if mcbide comes in at 290 or more he wins easily. he was 286 for his last fight, looked great
:rolleyes:
This fight is a waste of time, Don King is an idiot. Once again he moves back progress in the heavyweight division. Liakhovich vs Brewster II is the only fight the fans want to see, but too bad Don King is not a fan.
brewster needs a lot of time before his retina is all healed up...
Brewster's eye will take time to heal, so it's good he's taking a fight, but this is a sad match up.
In his defense I think I heard Sergi say he wanted to fight McBride because Kevin ruined his dream of fighting Mike Tyson...
that isnt funny, Sergei will fight whoever don king puts infront of him and it just so happens that the guy is kevin mcbride...
I thought Liakovich was going to defend his title from Brewster again in a rematch?
i hope not now, maybe later, let the guy feast on some bums first...
what is it with eastern european boxer's dreams of fighting Mike Tyson...
first VK vs Danny Williams
now SL vs Kevin McBride
Bozo made that up, he is just a racist troll.
Sigh... this is why I don't give a shit about the Heavyweight division anymore. Seriously.
then maybe you should post in non-heavyweight threads..
:bottle:
just playin'
:p

LOL
Sounds familiar
Perhaps the win against Tyson now finally gives him a title shot but i doubt the money will be big since not many know Lyakhovich and most don't care about McBride .
