It just seems unlikely to me that a guy who was preparing to fight the number 1 heavyweight is ducking a guy who hasn't fought anyone inside the top 30 and is the biggest cash cow in the division.
And at least this fight is for a strap. Browne might not be a world beater but he got Chagaev out of there so he deserves his shot.

Originally posted by bigdramashow View Postjust fight now ffs. Yeah i'll believe it when i see it if they fight in the summer. You really think wlads a good age for delaying fights lol, if he wanted to fight joshua hed fight him now, not when hes even older. I really dont know why people are giving wlad a pat on the back for this, its as if some of you dont actually want to watch good fights
You guys are so gullible & Hearn needs a few like you for his propaganda.. lol
Have you looked at what he even said 3 weeks back? The other titles were always a clause, it did not pop-up yesterday.. SMDH.. it's all one point with you...

Vlad could have fought AJ for the IBF championship & if he had won, he could have been on his way to unify & set records. That's a nice fairy tale, but the truth is, Vlad is done & he knows it. He'll never hold a meaningful belt again.

I don't like this for a couple reasons.
1) Browne deserves an easier shot LOL. He was done dirty and deserved an easier shot to get that belt back, because he won the title fair and square as an underdog in enemy territory. He deserves to be able to call himself a heavyweight champion, albeit for the minor version. Doesn't matter. Not 'word title challenger,' champion.
2) C'mon Wladimir, I understand you want a tuneup but holy shit.

Originally posted by Boxing Goat View PostLol @ somehow believing that Wladimir is scared to fight Joshua or other top heavies. He wants a WBA title fight and was willing to do it with Fury or Joshua (the best in the division) but they both fell through (assuming the WBA doesn't approve the Joshua fight) and it's not Wladimir's fault. From day one, he said the fight was a go if the title was on the line and even was able to get HBO to play ball.
Wladimir scared!?!?! Bahahahahaha!!!!

Even if we we're to assume Wlad was affected by the pressure of being a ducker or just disspleasing the fans in general he could always say "Brown now, but plan to fight Joshua in 2017", or something along those lines. It's incredibly easy in boxing to have an explanation for just about anything you want to do.
