WTF!!!!!!!
Klitschko out till 2008!
Going against his original plans, IBF/IBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko will not enter the ring for the rest of 2007. According to Die Welt, the reason for the long inactivity isn't the hand injury suffered in his July 7 bout against Lamon Brewster, but a combination of 1) a lack of available opponents for a big money bout, 2) HBO, to whom he is under contract, has apparently already blown their budget. As a result, Klitschko's next world title fight will likely not be earlier than February 2008.

will you take that 25,000 point figure and trim it down to 11,000 points and put it on brock winning if the fight happens?
It's a deal, I'll bet 11,000 on Brock winning vs. Chambers only if their fight takes place within the next 6 months.
Heh, you never liked him.
Just so to make it clear for you guys, there will be no unification this year:
Iggy is fighting Holy
Maskaev is fighting Peter
Chagaev is sick(liver problems) and is definately done for the year.
I was just starting....is what I said...
After Valu lost, I somehow believed that this guy was going to assert himself as the dominate force in the HW division. Now he simply gives the other guys a chance to do so...
I will bet 25,000 points that Wlad's next fight will be with Chagaev, as long as Chagaev will not get stripped of his title because of illness (or delay to get Wlad to fight him).
I know Chambers is your boy (from the picture in your sig) but I honestly don't see him getting past Brock.

i think one of the things in the above mentioned will happen (hopefully) this chagaev sultan unification bout really got hw fans hoping. It's been a long decade since titles have been united and goddamn chagaev. I'm gonna put this out there, Wlad's probably going to wait for the IBF eliminator to end and fight the winner which will be Eddie chambers no question. I think Tony Thompson is a very good boxer however doesn't have the power for Wlad, i see him as another calvin brock. If he weren't to fight the winner of the tournie on his next fight, vladimir virchis or maybe valuev but probably virchis would fight Klitschko. Virchis loss by UD most likely. Sultan's gonna fight Thompson or Dimitrenko and could lose to Thompson i'd like to see that fight.

i dont think chambers will win the IBF eliminator, i really think its just a huge step up for him as all involved are tough fighters.
im glad to see others who like tony thomspon, i think he is clearly the number one american heavyweight and i look forward to him getting a title shot against ibrag if wlad doesent land the fight.
i think valuev is the only non-title fight that would make enough money to interest wlad and HBO. virchis interests the hardcore fans, but i dont think HBO would be happy about it

when ruslan chagaev dropped out of the unification fight ibragimov could have very well said "fuck it i want wladamir klitschko i want to prove that im the heavyweight champ" instead he says "hmmm evander holyfield looks like the crustiest old bastard on the list i think ill just take him on and justify it with a bunch of horseshit cliche shit about how hes a legend"
the problem with this division is that nobody will say wladamirs name above a whisper theyre all scared shitless of fighting him and are blatantly going out of their way not to fight him
wlad should knock out james toney and shannon briggs on the same night and donate gate to charity
Shannon Briggs can go jump off a friggin bridge I don't want to see that gotdamn wrestler anywhere near a boxing ring ever again with his "gassed midway through the 1st round" stamina, yea I know he has asthma and that's what makes him look like crap, Wlad would dance around him peppering him with jabs and hooks all night, and shannon would sit there and eat them up walking like frankenstein not throwing anything back for fear that he might loose his remaining energy, and I like Toney but that would be an ugly fight and we all know why. Watch, Wlad will probably fight the winner of the Holyfield - Ibragimov fight, and I guarantee you the Unification bout will be with Wlad having 2 belts and Chageav being stripped and Peter having 2 belts, probably summer or end of next year, lol all speculation :ugh:
......That's a shame as Wlady has been on a roll and I would like to see the momentum continue. Oh well!!! It better be a big one if he makes us wait that long to see him beat someone up.
Who really is there???...nothing of interest to me.
He should let a couple of the other Bum champions fight each other...then perhaps the winner of that.

Brother like Brother...
He hasn't uni'd crap, but theres a lack of opp's out there....Just when I started to like the guy he pulls some crap like this.....
Wlad has an exclusive with HBO..
#1 HBO does see any opponents for him to make $$$ (we all know Wlad Vs. Unknown will not bring them any money)
It would be nice if he could fight Toney.. Still want that fat ass to hit the canvas (great chin)
#2 HBO Budget for the year is done.
