Why Wlad Klitschko picking Toney is a smart move. IMO

[Dirt E Gomez]

2 - Should not be a difficult fight for Wlad

I'd much prefer the HW who's trying to unify and truly be champion to not take many easy matches since it hardly helps the division.

It is smart for him but the easy way just like against Byrd.He should try to redeem his lose to Brewster IMO......before Rahman KOs his ass.

I disagree...
Brewster just got an "L" in his last fight and is not a hot fight anymore. Brewster needs to redeem himself, not Wlad. Wlad is the one with the belt and is doing the right thing by concentrating on Unifying the division, while Brewster redeems himself...

Then the two of them can hit it off again.. Will be a MUCH BIGGER FIGHT.

If Brewster still had a belt, I'm sure Wlad would have been going after him, not Rahman.

CHAMPION : Wladimir Klitschko Ukraine

1	NOT RATED
2	Ray Austin	United States
3	Calvin Brock	United States
4	Samuel Peter USBA CHAMPION	United States
5	Sultan Ibragimov	United States
6	Chris Byrd	United States
7	John Ruiz	United States
8	James Toney	United States
9	Lamon Brewster	United States
10	DaVarryl Williamson	United States
11	Luan Krasniqui	Germany
12	Shannon Briggs	United States
13	Monte Barrett	United States
14	Paolo Vidoz IBF I/C CHAMPION	Italy
15	Ruslan Chagaev	Uzbekistan

Right, so they are going for the #1 spot. Ibragimov challanged Peter, but I think Peter is doing that Foreman tournament thing.

True....fair enough.

Wlad needs to rematch Brewster to prove he can beat an opponent whose style threatens him

[chidave]

I'd love to see Wlad-Brewster more than any other HW fight out there, but I see why he is taking the route he is currently. However, "if" Brewster beats Liakovich in the rematch, and Wlad beats Rahman/Maskaev..the fight becomes a superfight..it has everything.

[guru]

is brewster out with an eye injury or not??? if he is out, then why the hell bring him up as wlad's next opponent when its not possible...

[!! Mr. Soprano]

Because Wlad punched himself out and lost to Brewster in the first fight...
For now Breswter is the only hope for the haters...

If they fight again and if Wlad wins... who do you think they will want the Klitshcko to fight? I say Peter...

Peter put him down 3 times and Wlad needs to redeem himself as a legit Champion..

Blah Blah Blah.. it will never end

Its a good choice for Wlad because Toney has no KO power at that weight. Only problem I see Wlad having is if Toney comes in at a good weight and Wlad has to go at a high pace for 12 rounds. I doubt that happenign though.
