    Also, I just boxrec'd Wlad and I noticed that the WBA title he just won was something called the "WBA Super World HW Title." WTF is dat? Please tell me the WBA did not just make up another title so that they can have two hw champions. This wouldn't be unusual as they have 3 mw champions ffs...
    Yes.

    But this is good, it may mean that Wlad won't have to fight Chagaev again.

    The WBA will likely have two of these three fight for the regular title: Chagaev, Povetkin and Mormeck.

      Wouldn't be surprised if they pulled that crap so they can add a paper champ. Most likely Povetkin or Helenius.

        It is an amazing acheivment, two brothers from a place like Ukraine holding all the HW belts and utterly dominating a scene that for a century was the preserve of North American fighters. Wlad looked pretty imperious in there, far from robotic.

          Good article, I can't believe though that some very sad bitter ppl actually tried to question the fact that Wlad dominated that fight even if he was not able to ko Haye.

              Haye had a good game plan and had the tools to win but did not pull the trigger when he created opportunities with his feints

                  Some haters always come out of the cracks like ****roaches after every Klitschko win.

                  Some funny quotes from Dan Rafael's twitter here:

                  @danrafaelespn No toe injuries here as Ola Afolabi scored sick KO1 of Terry Dunstan on Klitschko-Haye undercard: http://*******.com/6y7cqtx #mytoehurts 21 minutes ago

                  @danrafaelespn RT @oldstylin: @danrafaelespn In honor of Haye, you should withhold your weekend recap until Toes-day... 32 minutes ago

                  @danrafaelespn If you missed my Klitschko-Haye postfight column,
                  check it out toe-day: http://*******.com/6ay8xow #mytoehurts #boxing about an hour ago

                  @danrafaelespn Flipped on HBO & see replay of Klitschko-Haye. Right at point of show where Haye is coming out to 'Ain't Toe Stopping Us Now.' #mytoehurts about 2 hours ago

                    Now Wlad and Vitali must face each other....no other fight holds any meaning.
