    IDGAF who wins. I just hope we get a brutal KO, which seems very likely given the power that these two are packing.

      I got Stiverne winning anyway...just want to see a KO and then most of all I want a unification!!
      I agree with the first part. Tyson is the considered the youngest heavyweight champ when he beat Berbick, but Spinks was the lineal champ at the time. Not many make the distinction.

      He'll be at his best tonight though, I'm sure he's highly motivated and well-prepared.
      Yeah Stiverne is definitely ready to fight. He was really confident at the press conference. I'm going for Wilder, but it was obvious Wilder wasn't as confident, his words were running into each other when he was speaking and he had to take several breaks to catch himself. He also aborted the staredown early. It won't mean anything if he lands a bomb, but I didn't like it.

              Well its pretty obvious why. This fight has KO written all over. From all the experts, not one picked a decision. Plus people wants to see if Wilder is for real or hes just a hype job. Its a good match up and will watch it thats for sure

                  Actually think as bad as it was in terms of skill level Klitschko-Haye was the best. Never rated Povetkin highly in terms of skill.

                  I think Wilder gets found out and tonight isn't really competitive, his only opportunity is an early KO if it goes past 4 banking on Stiverne.

                    Serious? Wow thats bad. They should have done the fight in Montreal. I am sure they would have sold more than 1500 tix lol
