    Brewster will **** Byrd up if they fight.
    you're the one out of the loop if you think Brewster would beat anybody good. I saw the Williamson fight and Byrd easily won that. Saying any differently is just hating on Byrd b/c you think he's boring. Yeah he struggled way too much with Golota.

    Brewster sucks basically though. He's got power but not a single bit of skill. Only guy I know who always looks down at the mat and swings wildly. At least Mayorga looks at his opponents when he's hitting them. Byrd would easily beat Brewster I think.

    Brewster is one of the most powerful heavyweights, maybe the most powerful, but he won't last. He'll last longer than he otherwise would just b/c most heavyweights suck at the moment.

        you people dont get it. there will be NO UNIFICATION in the HW division. we havent had a HW unification match since lewis/holyfield 2 back in '99.

        after 6-7 years of no unification matches, doesnt that give you some kinda clue? like maybe "none of the 'champions' are really risk takers"?

            Eventually there will be unification matches. Not having a single champion is bad for boxing, bad for the promoters. Believe me, King wants one champion. So does every promoter wanting to promote heavyweights. If King has every champion, he'll gladly have a tournament b/c he gets the heavyweight champion any way you cut it that way.

              I don't really care who wins, so long as we have some fights! Any fight at all is a better option than waiting for Vitali, then wait again, then wait some more, then wait again.

              The guy is either too injury prone, not motivated to fight, or both. It doesn't really matter what the reason, the bottom line is that we aren't getting to see a fight.

              The guy should be stripped, as per previous agreement. When he's healthy, he can challenge for the title. In the meantime, we actually get some fights, what a concept!

                Only 4% of people are voting for THE ROCK. The man the KO"d Lennox with 1 punch!

                I can't believe that. *cough

                well maybe I can.

                  WTF are you talking about? There have been plenty of Non-Vitali heavyweight fights. And will continue to be so. Do you mean just heavyweight title fights or what? We've had some of those too. We got to see Toney beat Ruiz's ass. We got to see blind brawler Brewster knock Golota out. We had to watch Sam Peter manage to not knock Wladimir Klitschko out, and somehow not even win on points even though he got 3 knockdowns (not saying he deserved the win at all, he definitely lost).

                  That's not great but its decent. Tua will get another couple wins then be back in the picture. Tua vs. Brewster would be a good heavyweight match. Toney vs. any top heavyweight will be worth watching. We're going to get some good heavyweight matches next year. Will Vitali be in any of them? If he gets knocked out, yes.

                      I choose Other.

                      Or rather anyone but Wladmir Klitschko.
