    I always am rooting for unification, and as long as both Klits have belts, it's not happening. While I like Wlad better than Vitali, and would rather see him unify than Vitali, I'm still rooting for Haye. At least if Haye wins it brings us closer to unification.

      During the four years Vitali was away, there was no unification, so it's ridiculous to blame it on them.

      Don King will not let Valuev fight a Klitschko, and you know that.

        Germany has a history for corrupt boxing contests.

          I'll co-sign that.

          I've often wondered what German fight fans think of their officials. Were they as appalled as us when Reid was robbed by Ottke, or did they think their man won the fight?

              i'm sure they can't all be painted with the same brush

              like over here, some people thought Khan's win over Barrera was totally legit, and some people know how biased and out of order it was to keep the fight going until round 5 so they could give Khan the W, with no regard for Barrera's well being

                People keep saying that, and point to the gift decision Ottke got over Reid ten years ago, in a fight very similar to Dawson-Johnson.

                But it's not as bad as the US.

                  I'm not asking who you think will win, but who you WANT to win.
                  the jury has spoken.

                      Most people nowadays want a black heavyweight champion, while back in Jack Johnson's day, they wanted a "white hope"...

                      Prejudice has reversed itself over a hundred years.
