[QUOTE=boxingking500;7890820]

excuses??????

you try to justify, eddie slamming Wlad down, cause wlad was leaning on him...

Idiot. You were obviously talking about excuses for their wins, and their opponents failures. I don't make that king of excuses.

Eddie obviously slammed Wlad down because he was leaning on his. But leaning or not, Wlad was going to win.

How old are you, 8 years old ? Leave boxing to grown-ups.

I thought Wlad had to fight Povetkin next since he's a mandatory, but now Povetkin manager says Wlad can have a voluntary defense first, WTF?

He's just fought a mandatory, so he can fight a voluntary next if he wants. What's so strange about that??

[Dave Rado]

Wow, Cant believe i agree with you.

Carnivore posting an objective post is one of those once-in-a-lifetime events, like seeing a full eclipse of the sun.

Povetkin is a mandatory for a different organization.

[B.U.R.N.E.R]

Povetkin is tailor made for Wlad. Fight Haye instead.

[Dave Rado]

You do realize picking Chambers to beat Klitschko or even last the fight shows what pathetic boxing knowledge you posses right.

Picking Chambers to win was silly, if true, but he was only a few seconds away from going the distance, so the rest of your post makes no sense.

[Dave Rado]

The issue was chin and power and Haye would have been sparked cold by Sanders at his peak.

Rahman didn't have the world's greatest chin, and he knocked Sanders out in Sanders' prime.

Povetkin must quit hiding or move out of the IBF mandatory position.

Well, if I'm a hater, I'm a hater who can back up what he says with arguments and facts. Klitards only back their ***** with their unconditional love for the Klits.

I have the right to dislike them, say why, voice my opinion about things that concern them, just as you have the right to like them and protect them the way you do by trying to discredit me and call me a hater.

If I were not to be taken seriously actually, you wouldn't spend so much energy replying my posts and trying to discredit me. OWNED

The fact that you don't like them doesn't mean much. I remember when Lennox Lewis was champ he was reviled by many, many American boxing fans. And that was before the Net was quite the cesspool that it has turned into today.

The fact is, the Klitschkos, like Lewis, are winners who have dominated their division for a long period of time. Lennox was called boring, a guy who just fought behind a jab and finished with a right cross. Wlad is often called the same (though I note that his KOs of Ray Austin and Eddie Chambers have come from left hooks). Both men are trained by Manny Steward. So it seems that many people don't like Manny's formula: but it works.

As for Vitali, suddenly he is lumped in with Wlad, but he fights nothing like him, and never needs encouragement to go for the KO -- and is trained by Fritz Sdunek, not Manny. Give Vitali someone who wants to fight, and it will be a good, exciting fight. I expect Sosnowski, who will at least show up in great shape, to give Vitali a far better fight than American fat boys Arreola or Queenpin Johnson did. Sosnowski will fight with courage and pride, and won't disgrace himself by crying when he loses or by landing a pitiful 5 power punches all night. American heavyweights today are a sad example of where the country is at as a whole: a fading empire living on memories of past glories.

This is it.. Povetkin vs. Klitschko isn't far away now. Povetkin is the toughest opponent Klitschko has faced in a long time, and probably the only heavyweight capable of winning a UD over either Klitschko brother.

M-m-m... Even if Povetkin manages to be very effective, he won`t get a decision over Wlad... NEVER! Unless they fight in Russia (which is very unlikely, IMO). After all, Wlad is a star, and Povetkin is just a contender...
