    This fight is an IBF title elimenator. The winner of this fight get's a mandatory title fight against Byrd. It is Wlad's last desperate attempt to get a world title shot.

      i dont care whether u like or hate wlad, he got mad balls for taken this fight against an up and coming heavyweight.

      its do or die like sum1 said

      he looses- his career is pretty much over as far as ppl taking him seroiusly at all! cuz 2 losses recently, and a 3rd will be over for him

      he wins - hes right back up there, proves himself as a great heavyweight, and will put much of the questions to rest

          If He wins it was cause Peter was too young and inexperienced. Doesnt really help his cause.

          If he loses Petter is a superstar and Wlad is proably done.

          So whats the real reason he has taken this fight. He could easly have fought some other less talented Contenders and gotten a title fight.
          wlad thinks he can win and if he does hes back contending for a belt

            Because if he wins a lot of people will jump back on the Wlad "Heavyweight Saviour" bandwagon.

              I think it was Manny Steward that pushed him. I remember Lampley was saying, is Wlad ready for the bigger opponents. And if you remember every time Lampley or Merchant asked a question like this, Steward said he's ready now.

                This is how I look at it...Wlad has weak chin right? Right, Peter punches hard Right? Right. So basically Wlad would have to fight the perfect defensive and offensive fight to win in my opinion. Peter by 5th round TKO
