While we were eating, Benton said, "Bobby, what's up with Foreman and Tyson, how come they're not fighting each other on the 16th? Isn't that the fight that King was trying to make?" He said, " Georgie,You'll never believe this but, ****in' Tyson is scared ****less of Foreman and wants no part of him. I was there when Don was trying to make the fight. He was telling Tyson that Foreman represented huge money, plus he was old and slow and would be no problem. Tyson got up and screamed at King saying, 'I'm not fightin' that ****in' animal, if you love the mother****er so much, you fight him!'" This story got circled for years now. I heard it was debunked. Does anyone have info on this?

Adamek actually also has a decent chance against Vitali. Adamek's got a very strong chin, he's good speed...some power and has excellent body work. Vitali is slowing down. I feel stylelistically Adamek would do better against Vitali than Haye but Haye stylistically i feel would beat Adamek. But that fight would be HUGE if two Klishko destroyers get it on. I'm actually hoping for that eventho I like Vitali alot more than Wlad. And would you root for Haye or Adamek?

I'll give Wladimir credit for one thing; he is the only boxer who is honest about his height. He is a solid 6'5. 6'6 in the morning because people shrink during the day and grow at night. Didn't he say 6'5.5'' in the morning and 6'5'' in the evening?

I just checked the heights of Adamek and Haye. Haye at boxrec is listed at 6'3'' Adamek is listed at 6'1.5'' Can this be? Adamek looks taller and Haye looks smaller. Does someone have any other info?

Despite of the outcomes, I personally would like to see Haye vs Adamek.

f*ck that ho. I hope she rots in hell.

It's now estimated that 60% of rape accusations are invented by women. With basically no or negligible penalties even if the woman ("rape princess") gets caught lying. We live in a matriarchy, women are the most padded group in society and feminism is a hate speech religion. Additionally it's actually feminism that PRODUCES rapes because 80% of rapists have been brought up by single-parenting mothers, although single-parenting mothers comprise only 8% of parenting. Single parenting mothers (mainly the merit of feminism) are the root of crimes, mental illnesses, poverty etc and dozens of studies have proven this again and again. Feminism kills.

Notice that Wlad is not modeling himself after Ali, Joe Jeanette, Evander Holyfield or even his own brother. If Wlad would model himself after LeLe he would throw more uppercuts and punch himself in the face like Lennox. If Wlad would model himself after LeLe he would listen to his mom and retire ("No Mas Mamma") He knows Lennox is the greatest. Thats the benchmark he is trying to reach. Hmm, last time I checked Wlad overtook LeLe's record already, e.g. number of world titles won, number/length of belts, KOs, fights... It's rather the other way around: LeLe won't return because LeLe knows he would have to model himself after Wlad.

Lasts 10 rounds against a live cruiserweight opponent. Manages to hurt him in the 9th round. Still has speed, power and stamina. It shows you how much advanced he was at his earlier carreer that all his opponents. Truly shows how much of an ATG he was. No, it only shows that American boxers are only as great as Eastern Euros allow them to be. That would have happened to him much earlier had Eastern Euros boxed back then. Shows again how "Golden Eras" were "Fool's Golden Eras".

This might sound like a troll question but im honestly unsure what would happen if a boxer during the middle of a fight needs to go urinate because he drank too much water or whatever else. 1) What do you think jockstraps are for? 2) Why else do you think boxers would be called "bums" or "stinkers"? 3) Muhammad Ali himself did it quite often, hence his slogan "Float like a fly" (= relating to flies circling around poo), "Stink like pee" (= relating to urine).

Klitschko has the upper hand in power but he can't box. 1) Sometimes power is all you need at heavyweight. 2) Klitschko...can't...box? :?!:

I was just browsing through Tyson's record on boxrec, I didn't know Mike fought 16 times in 1985 when he turned pro and like 14 times in 1986. He was basically 30-0 in only 2 years that's pretty impressive compared to boxers today who fight only 3-5 max. I know Ray Robinson more than 20 times in one year. name..............|Most.fights.in.a.year.(200x2)|Most.fights.in.a.year|Fights.within.first.2.years (200x2) Vitali.Klitschko..|10...........................|10...................|22 Wladimir.Klitschko|13...........................|13...................|24 Lennox.Lewis......|8............................|8....................|13 Muhammad.Ali......|4............................|8....................|0 Mike.Tyson........|12...........................|15...................|23 George.Foreman....|9............................|13...................|14 Joe.Louis.........|3............................|12...................|1 Sonny.Liston......|4............................|8....................|4 Archie.Moore......|1............................|18...................|0 Sugar.Ray.Robinson|0............................|20...................|0

WRONG! Adamek Vs. Haye is more exciting if they both beat the Klitscho's WRONG! Wlad vs Vit is more exciting if they both beat the Haye resp. Adamek.

Can't wait for the fight myself. I can't see Wlad doing anything different in this fight, honestly. He gasses way too fast, and knows his limits. Your prediction is that Wlad will gass against Haye?

I got a feeling Klitscho will get knocked out, It's just a matter of time before one of them gets KO'd . Haye will get to Wlads chin, unless Wlad actually KO's him early which i cannot see. So your prediction is that Wlad KOs Haye or Haye KOs Wlad? You could have said it shorter, I guess.

He wouldn't be able to live that down if he pulled out DId you watch RingSide? Haye refused to be in the same room as Wlad. Haye was sitting behind some wall. That's already a type of pulling out. Haye will have massive diarrhea during the walk-in.

This fight will kill off 50% of boxing scene's user base. Can't wait. Haha, not only BS. Also ESB. All the articles mentioning Haye have 300+ comments. It's unbelievable.

Can't wait. It's gonna be weird watching a legit heavy weight bout, it's been a LONNNNNGGGGG time...... When was the last time 2 hard punchers at real heavyweight (200x2) in their primes had a unification bout before Wlad came along? Never: http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/showthread.php?p=10764582#post10764582

I can't wait, I just hope Haye doesn't pull out again, he should take his beating in the ring. Haye won't pull out but he WILL have an excuse after his loss.

Haye is very focussed. He explains that he has been training since January, and wants to knck Wlad out. He was fat 2 weeks prior to Ruiz, you could tell he didn't care much. No idea how he lost that belly in 2 weeks though LOl! Possibly merely excess water.

Right now I'd say the people who bought tickets are the most scared. Haha, good one.

Yeah I think Haye looks a little edgy - its strange as he didnt seem to have any issues conducting the valuev pressers... i think the realisation of what he is facing has finally hit him I, too, think that his with-Wlad interviews are very different from his previous interviews.

It seems Haye has made his point and drawn wlad out into acting the way he is. IMO Haye has the psychological edge by taking wlad out of his comfort zone. Wlad's comfort zone is in the ring.

For those who don't know who Overeem is, he is a 6'6'', 270lb beast of a kickboxer/MMA fighter. That cr*p is a highlight clip? Oh, my god. This guy is slow. And he is already puffing in the 1st round. Forget it. Fish food.

Nice interview except for 2 things Gene Tunney was not a heavyweight but a featherfisted subcruiser (average fighting weight 174 lbs). It's ridiculous to compare such a guy to ultraheavyweights like Klitschkos Wlad didn't lose a round against Thompson. Even if he did it was far from clear.

Not quite sure what people are basing the shifting percentages during the fight on?. Is that supposed to be down to Haye's stamina?. It's based on Haye's non-existent defense. Haye WILL get hit really bad.

Ali is way too small to beat Klitschko and lacks the power needed to keep him at bay. There wasnt really anyone around at the time of Ali who was as big and athletic as Klitschko. Prime George Foreman (whom they called Big George Foreman) would be the bottom #3 lightest opponent of Vitali Klitschko. The division changed massively. Nowadays Light Heavyweights are what has been called "heavyweight" back then.

the rope a dope he formulated vs george is a classic strategy... And only worked against George Foreman because Ali's trainer manipulated the ropes before the fight, as he himself admitted.

I had a dream that Klitschko got knocked out in the first backing straight up trying to avoid a random Haye onslaught and got caught against the ropes with a single shot. You have dreams ... about... Haye???
