Wladimir Klitschko vs. Lamon Brewster II

"...he didn't take in the carbs he needed, and ended up without the sustained energy to make it 12 rounds"

Nah, the guy's a PhD in sports medicine fer pete's sake! He knows about nutrition, and he's always in tip top shape.

... I think Foreman may have been drugged in his fight with Ali...

I don't know anything about that, but the ropes were specially fixed up that night! Ali had more su****ious fights than ANYBODY!

I wonder if Wladimir will become Ring Magazine heavyweight champion if he KOs Brewster? I think based on his last three fights, all KO wins, already he deserves it.

No, you have to beat the Ring #2 or 'on special circumstances' the Ring #3. Brewster is #8, no chance of Wlad being Ring champ for at least three more fights.

Is that how the champion is decided by Ring Magazine? Their rankings keep changing - I thought Bryd rated was #1 when Wlad beat him.

Who cares about the ****ing Ring belt, that magazine is turning into a joke with their biased ratings.

It's ben a sick joke for many years. I'm surprised it's still in business. The info in it is worthless and several months old. I'd guess that it's mostly people who don't know about computers who are the only ones still buying it.

Anyone who knows me.. Knows I like Wlad.. BUT I will tell you.. PUT his Bible thumping aside.. Lamon Brewster is a Classy dude and I am sad one of these Guys has to lose..
It's very hard not too like either of these guys..

I am picking Wlad.. But I wont be as heart broken should he lose to Brewster then I would be anyone else..

I am anxious for the action to begin

Don't worry about it, Wlad's not going to lose. It will be a completely one-sided mismatch. Like the guy said, in the last fight Wlad won every second of every round up until the end - and now Wlad is a much better fighter, and Brewster, beaten up by Lyakhovich and with a detached retina (that the ref and ring doctor will be watching very carefully!) and inactive for 14 months, is most likely a much worse fighter.

My new revised pediction: Under advice from the ring physician Brewster's corner throws in the towel after round four.

Welter, that's exactly how I feel about it too. I like Brewster, he is a real warrior with a lot of heart and the kind of aggressive, exciting fighter we need in the sport of boxing. I hope Lamon does not retire after losing this one, he's a better fighter than almost anyone else in the division.
