    Can Rahman Beat the Euro Champs?

    Now that Hasim Rahman is the only American heavyweight champion out there, how do you think he would go up against:

    Wladimir Klitschko

    Nicolai Valuev

    Serguei Lyakhovich

    And which one is the fight that defines the division in your opinion?

    If you ask me, once Rahman beats Maskaev, Wlad and Sergei should get it on, then Rahman vs whoever beats the winner would define the champ at HW.

        Valuev....maybe. Klitschko stops him and Liakhovich busts him up on the way to a UD.

          Most likely he would beat Valuev, unless they fight in Germany and it goes 12 rounds.

            I just pray that Rahman loses. The belts would then all be held by Europeans. Love to see Yanks in shock and awe of that.

              That would be weird. Wont happen though, I doubt Maskaev could beat Rahman this time around. And hopefully Valuev's luck runs out.

                No Shock and awe here. Amercans have gotten soft. We held the heavyweight throne for 120 Years, give or take...and seeing the Euros on top might acutally inspire some American fighters to put the damn junk food down, get there asses in shape and dedicated to actually learning the craft and then Win the title back. There is no glory but through suffering and most American fighters who are fortunate enough to make it into the limelight have become fixated on it and forgotten what it's all about. Let the Euro's rule for a while....see if that doesnt' prick their (US Fighters) pride.

                    Its worrying. Rahman looked excellently contiondioned (that spelling doesn't look right) for the Toney fight. Just hope something goes wrong. I really want Europe to dominate the Heavy for a good few years-leaving the Americans to battle it out for something like the IBO belt.
