    Wlad will probably KO Rahman because he will be in fury mode to avenge the retirement of his brother Vitali got because of Rahman. I can't wait for this fight.

      he has a modest punch unless you have your hands by your side and say "here,,you go,,hit me" like lennox lewis

        Thats funny stuff there.
        Seriously, I dont think Vitali or Wlad have ever had that cross their mind. I bet by this time next year Rahman will be back to ESPN fights.

          rahman will get beat on his best day, Wlads quick powerfull right hand will put him to sleep same as Lewis did...

            there's so many belts out there - Rahman could give up his belt to fight for another if the price was right. I don't think anyone's in a real hurry to pay to broadcast the rematch since the first fight was fairly dull...

              Could happen the other way around. Rahman has a very long reach, good jab and excellent power in his right hand.

If Rahman is to win, he needs to jab with Wladimir. Wladimir's jab may simply outclass him, but Wladimir's vulnerabilities will mean he's gonna be holding his breath all night. Rahman's slow foot speed and lackadaisical temperment will make this a fight ready for Wladimir to win. I would go with Wladimir as a prohibitive favorite, but I wouldn't count Rahman out.
