IBF heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko, recognized as the best heavyweight in boxing, predicts his rematch with Lamon Brewster in Cologne, Germany will be a very tough fight. Brewster, well behind on all three official scorecards, came from behind to stop an exhausted Klitschko in the fifth round of their 2004 meeting. [details]

Funny how Wlad talks the talk while other champs are walking the walk and make unification possible. If he's not interested in unification, he will lose his credibility faster than Briggs lost his title. -
I havent reall ever watched Brewster like that before to judge how good he is. But I do know how good Wlad is and if he 'thinks' it will be a tough fight than is damn well could be. I still predict Wlad Ko in later roundsComment

Wlad says he's been trying to unify? With who? What fights was he trying to make?
Brewster will give everything he has; he has a very big heart. He's also been out of the ring since April of 06. Tough 1st fight back...
I'd like to see him try what worked against Golota - come at Wlad right away, see if something lands, and if it does, try to score even more KDs than Corrie Sanders got on WK...
What I think is more likely, though, is Brewster getting battered consistently and TKO'd midway through the fightComment

"Klitschko Predicts Tough Fight Against Brewster"
I think Wlad is selling tickets and I don't think it will be a tough fight at all. I think it will be a total mismatch. I pick Wlad to win by KO in rd. 4. Who wants to bet?

Wlad is content with this 'pretty boy' image he has over in mainland Europe.Comment

Why can't you guys get that none of the other champs want a piece of Wlad.
Wlad, in the perspective time, tried to unify with Valuev and Briggs. Both lost their titles WHILE he was already preparing for the Brewster fight, and this is not in Wlad's nature to call out fighters WHILE he is already preparing for another fight.
It's so easy to blab around that Wlad is ducking, but I don't see other champs calling him out or even expressing a slight interest in fighting him. But this is a typical boxingscene response to put down a fighter without much evidence, just on a bare thought.Comment

I don't think Steward will let Wlad make the same mistake he made last time vs LAmon

I don't believe for a second that Wlad is not contemplating unification sometime in near future; I think that he's just wholly focused on the task at hand called Lamon Brewster. This fight is probaby one of the most important in Wlad's career and he's taking no chances in any interuptions in his mental focus. Having said that, I think that this fight will be a huge 'mismatch' as was his fights with Brock and Byrd...Comment
