    I attended Wlad Klitschko's Training Camp Today

    And I might return a few more times before it's time to wrap things up on Feb 17. I interviewed Andy Lee, Emmanuel Steward, and Wladimir and had a blast. I watched him spar with a couple KRONK guys, hit the bags, and interact with the fans. In this one pic my GF took of me interviewing Wladimir, he almost look amused at my small stature. He probably thought I was a little kid.

    My favorite part was having Joey Gamache show me a few moves and talking boxing history and technique with him. Gamache is one of the nicest people you'd ever meet in boxing. I have a full article coming out soon, so stay tuned to BoxingScene.com for this story and more.

      He was in remarkable shape, he always is really. I was surprised because he looks so small compared to Jameel McCline and Hasim Rahman, who are the biggest heavyweights I've ever seen. Wladimir looked incredibly sharp and it was clear that he was focusing on cutting off the ring and pushing his man to the ropes with the jab.

        Did he spar Andy Lee?

          I'll give Wlad alot of credit. I thought he was done during that time period where it seemed like everybody was dropping him, but he stayed with it and returned to the top.

            True, he always comes in shape. Seems like he's gonna try and pressure Sultan and eventually go for the KO. Nothing against Sultan, but I really think Wlad will put a beat down on him.

                  Considering a comeback against the winner of Peter-Maskaev. He was supposed to come back a few months ago against McCline but got injured again.
