    Like I've stated many many times, I just haven't bought Klitschko's act yet. He's had three loses and perhaps a lucky escape against TOS. He hasn't had any defining wins yet. He has not avenged one of his defeats or showed courage over any adversity in the ring. He has not become an undisputed or majority champion in a weak era of heavyweight boxing.

    Now is that racist or just telling it like it is? One guy even said he can become the greatest heavyweight of all time and you guys are the ones saying other people are unreasonable? Lennox Lewis just about gets into the top 10 all time heavies in most people's lists for goodness sake.

    What's happening here is Klitschko's hardcore fans are actually digging their own graves by making outlandish statements and nuthugging Klitschko to the extent were it becomes unpalatable to most normal fans. It's got to the stage that I actually want Brewster to beat him because of this when I wouldn't have given a damn otherwise.

    And this is coming from someone who thinks Juan Carlos Gomez is today's best HW.

    But hey, it's just a matter of oppinion.

      ww
      Yes, right after the fight the haters will be posting the comments you say...they will discredit Wlad because he's white. Racism against white people is just as ethically wrong as racism against black people...

        Exactly. What people don't realize is Lamon Brewster beat Wladimir after a long layoff the first time and Sergei Liakhovich beat him after a 16month layoff. Excuses will be flying late saturday afternoon. Even Brewster himself said sparring regularly minimizes ring rust.

          don't care for much of what you have to say anymore. i already knew werewolf was a racist idiot, he's proven himself time and time again. i'm always glad to add some more to the **** list lmao. ***got. gran torino is on the brink of exposing himself, he's always been suspect.

            and as far as the topic goes, was it not white people who created the term great white hope? that's my understanding of the situation, so you won't see "great black hope" in the headlines until someone black says it. i know it would make ww happy to see the headline "great black hope", what he doesn't realize is that he will always and forever be the "great white dope" lmfao.

              I said ring rust wouldn't play that much of a factor. Even Brewster himself said it. With regularly sparring so he won't use any excuses. But most Klitschko haters will bring out every excuse in the book.

                  I agree. When people start talking about Tyson they always start by saying "when he was young" But his late 80's era was weaker than today. I think Klitschko could beat Spinks,Bonecrusher smith,Berbick. Tyson couldn't compete with the top two guys of the 90's Lewis and Holyfield. IMO the 90's was better than the 70's but that's my IMO.

                    Who are the people you're saying are racist though? I certainly hope you're not referring to everyone who happens to criticise Klitschko otherwise that's an absolutely ridiculous statement to make. For anyone to make a sweeping generalisation like that just shows that they're paranoid and probably a racist themselves. I couldn't care if the guy is white, black or his balls are blue, but I'll state an opinion and in this case it's disapproval of klitschko's so-called fans and the fact the guy has a hell of a lot to prove.

                    In all honesty, there's a few of you who made complete idiots of yourselves in the Roy Jones thread yet you're saying other guys are racist. Are you racist because you picked Klitschko over Jones when just about any other sane boxing fan wouldn't? There's an element of racism in every race but to use it as a stick to beat everyone who disagrees with your views is very dirty tactics and is very insecure.

                    You know what fellas, Klitschko himself would probably be ashamed of some of you and not agree with you in the slightest. These Klitschko threads have really been pissing me off because it seems the guys who are talking about racism are racist themselves, it's like these people who always talk about gays, ''*** this and *** that'', they're usually gay themselves.

                    You're acting like a bunch of whiny little girls, and racist ones at that probably. Mr Klitschko will get praise when he earns it with blood and guts like anyone else.

                      Klitschko IMO will win saturday so he should get some respect by beating the last guy that beat him. I'm a fan but I'll say he's not the blood and guts(Gatti) type. He usually blows people out. Or passes out like the first brewster fight
