    .....Keep in mind that Wlad is always in good shape and he just came off the Peter fight so he is probably primed. I guarantee that Manny and Wlad would have jumped at it. It could have been similar to the Lennox/Johnson fight changing to Lennox/Vitali on short notice.

          yeah, i actually went to them.....

          lara looked bad, it was a clear cut loss, im not sure what his future is.

          banks won, but he fought a bum, im not sure if theyre having trouble finding good prospects who are willing to fight him or what.

          a fighter to watch is anthony dirrell, he is a super middle, he is the brother of anthony dirrell who i believe won a bronze medal in the last olympics. he knocked out his opponent with a vicious left hook, im not sure he is even better than his bro but he is fun too watch, a little ****y, needs to be taken down a peg or two.


          also, an amatuer named isiah thomas fought on the card. he is 16 years old i think, i heard he just won the world junior championship in the heavy division being the first american to do it it a long time if i understand correctly. steward says this guy is a lock for gold and a big time heavyweight prosepect

            Hey, you know how to use private mesages?

            Back to topic..

            Yeah, I just don't think Lara's heart is in this anymore..

            He been doing this for SOOOO long and has been over hyped sooooo long ago, from what I hear, wasted talent..

            I looked at Banks's record, he has like 6 or 7 consecutive first round KO's....At least he gets 1st round ko's

            I really hope this guy makes it huge!

            Andre and Anthony Dirrell! These guys are awesome!

            Man, I can't wait to come there and watch themm all fight
            In a few years, you will see me fighting in the Joe Louis Arena and The Palace

            Do you think Kronk has a good future?

              There is NO WAY Wlad would have been ready to fight on a week's notice.

              You're day dreaming with stars in your eyes as usual.

              And why is it that all you nut huggers keep asking this "Why doesn't Wlad fight Rahman"? question over and over?

              King has been looking to get his hands on this title for some time, and has been in a battle with the Klitschkos, who seem to have been doing everything they can to keep it from his.

              Why on earth would King turn around after just getting it and allow Wlad to take it?

              There is NO WAY that's going to happen.

              The only title fight Wlad will get is Brewster or Byrd.

              And as much as you'd all drool over him geeting a walk in the park against Byrd (who's got no chance to crack Wlad's chin), Byrd just fought a mandatory in Williamson, so he's not due to have another mandatory enforced right away.

              Which leaves Brewster.

              If anything, Wlad will get a chance at a rematch with Brewster, which is by far the most dangerous fight for him of anyone that holds a title.

                bozo is right.....maybe....

                in a nutshell the heavy division is dead now that don king has the belts. but......

                i think you may be underestimating Byrd's desire to get paid and get the **** out of boxing..... plus its no secret that he hates don king. im sure if he lost hed love nothing more than for the belt to be turned over to a non-king fighter.

                  No, because the best Money for Byrd is if he participates in the PPV's set up for the pending tournament.

                      Byrd has already said he won't go back to Germany.

                      And there's more than 450K for him to be made in this tournament. That mandatory was on show time, and wasn't even promoted by King.
