Everytime I watch heavyweight boxing on hbo,espn,or showtime they all say the same thing about boytsov when they show the rankings & they all say the same thing ...he needs to step up or he hasn't fought anyone,etc.... They are all right IMO.European boxing fans will probably disagree but he's been pampered & his promoters need him to start fighting name opponents.even a recycled veteran like Rahman,Briggs,tua,etc should be targets for boytsov not kevin montly,gavern,etc.those veterans are guys who need to be phased out & it should be guys like boytsov who do it...unfortunately his handlers refuse & when he finally steps up he won't be ready...ala dimitrenko

Why do you hate and discredit Eastern European boxers, Joe?
Did a Russian steal your girlfriend or something like that? -
I give Boytsov the best chance to beat the Klitshcko brothers...Comment

i agree, he has an exciting style and a fighter with his punching power is always fun to watch
but he's almost approaching 30 fights now, and so far all of his fights were carefully selected against opposition that does not test him.
some successful fighters already end their careers by 30 or less fights, and this guy looks like he's not even warmed up yet.
he needs to start looking at names like peter, chambers, dimitrenko, and even povetkin. arreola should be on his radar, i dont know how many more fights he's gonna have before he finally steps up.
i wanna see this kid against those fighters i mentioned, not later, now.Comment

Boytsov's promoters are choosing the path of least resistance to a hw title shot which will do him a disservice when he gets in with someone decent...Comment

I'm from a german background & growing up & presently many of my friends are ukranian.golota & adamek are polish & 2 of my favorites.heavyweight boxing is what I like but I just don't think boytsov has done anything yet.povetkin is one of my favorites as well because he was brought along properly.lennox is my all time favorite & he's European.I have no hate towards Europeans considering my family tree is all European.floyd Patterson once said European heavyweights need to come to the states & train to fully reach their potential...wlad was ok until he hired AMERICAN trainer steward,lennox did the same.better trainers,sparring,etc...American trainers are finishers.liakhovich & ibragimov hired American trainers & won world titles...get over this I hate European thing Tunney...didn't you have me on ignore?Comment

No humor,
I think he has the best chance out of all the other HWs to beat the Klitshcko brothers. I didn't say he will beat him but I give him the best chance out of everybody else.
I would like to see him fight Haye and then the winner fight the winner of Arreola-Adamek...
And, then whoever left standing and pick whichever Klitshcko they want to fight.Comment
