Brewster seems to come out like a madman in the first 90 seconds of his fights, but once he settles down, he has average skills.
I can't get his fight with Kali Meehan out of my mind. That was a pathetic performance, not what you'd expect from a champion. Although, his 54 second fight with Golota left me wanting to see more.
As far as his character goes, Brewster's a good guy. One of the few class acts in todays boxing when so many boxers are showboating schmucks.
I wish his next fight was televised in the States.Comment

Originally posted by ThaGreatestJr.Vitali is not Wlad, Vitali has a chin, the only thing that stopps Vit. is injury or Drs calling off the fight, The way a dr. called off Vitali, is against Lennox Lewis, a great champ and a man who loses to suckers like Ettienne and Shufford is not great. V.Klitschko ,is not Wlad. Remember that.Comment

Originally posted by memorexi think hes a average heavyweight at best. if the heavyweight division had more vitalys in it, lamon would not be in the picture
Yes but there isnt...Same goes if there were a lot of Larry Holmes when Lewis was reigning he wouldnt have reigned....Vitali/Brewster are the 2 best heavyweights today by far. Brewster is far superior then a lot of the other heavyweights because of his will and power alone....Vitali vs Brewster would probably be the best damn heavyweight fight since Vitali vs Lewis which was the last great heavyweight fight.Comment

Originally posted by memorexhe has only 1 good victory and that againt wlad, in that fight brewster was getting his ass kicked and won cause wlad ran out of gas or something happened to him. brewster is very overrated by some ppl but not by me cuz i know what he really is a journeyman. and beating a washed up insane golota is nothing to be proud of
Albeit that Wlad was giving Brewster one hell of an ass beating but the fact that he was still standing and coming forward and STILL throwing punches warrants him respect...He took one of the best heavyweights best shots and didnt crumble...Brewster showed his heart in that fight and his power in the Golota fight. Brewster should get respect as being in the top 2 exciting champions.
Also the Golota statement would be true if he fought him and the outcome was the same if it was Golota's first crack at the title (when he fought Byrd) But what makes his win over Golota so damn credible is that the other 2 champions (1 who is regarded as 1st or 2nd top champ) struggled with Golota and won disputed decisions...Brewster didnt let that happen and that is why that fight is significant for Brewster because the other 2 champs hold disputed victories.Comment
