The Rahman Devastation Punch

[gridiron]

He did it once. Against Lennox.

And we are very aware of Wlad's chin? Ain't we?

So will history repeat itself?

I had looked forward to the Wlad vs. Povetkin fight this December? Two former Olympic gold medallists clashing for the pro World Heavyweight Title, can a match-up deliver any better than that?

Hardly. But Povetkin running the dark forests of Kursk turned into disaster, hopefully not bringing out the same disaster IF Rahman would connect with his "lucky punch" once again.

The Wlad vs. Povetkin gamble is said NOT being in question (at the earliest)until September of next year. IF Rahman connects with that lucky one, it'll probably force a return bout - and the Povetkin Sept. challenge will be shrouded in mystery ...

This is Wlad's most important fight. If he looses, the heavyweight division will fall into a all-time low. If he wins, the division still (artificial) breathes.

That punch was the mother of all flukes.

That guy is probably richer than all of us together because he landed one crazy bingo punch.

Rahman is decent but he's never been a world class fighter.

thats a major overstatement..he's slow,his power is way overated..rahman is a tomato can with a good jab

Rahman can't counterpunch I doubt he even hits Wlad.

Seriously I mean nothing.

Wlad fights so tall and so cautious and throws a jab just to stop the other guy from getting inside, Rahman will just stand there, right infront of him and get hammered.

I personally think David Haye should have targeted Rahman hw is so slow some of his punches come from the past.

When I saw the thread title, this is what popped into my head.....

[The Hammer]

He has some other decent wins: Sanders, Calloway, Pannell, Meehan and Barrett (somewhat younger versions).

Hasim Rahman is hot and cold - when he's focused and motivated, he can be be a fairly formidable opponent.

I think you have to say he is decent to be fair.

He beats like 85% of the HW out there, whether that is a depressing thought or not is up for debate. lol
