    Okay, I'll say it.

    This is the biggest waste of TV time out there. Why the hell is Kevin McBride getting a title shot?? I understand that Brewster's injured and Sergei is trying to stay busy; but is it that damn hard to find a quasi-credible challenger?! GEEZ!!!

              MCbride did beat Tyson, and hasn't ost in 4 years. So i guess it's not too bad. I didn't notice that he was beat 4 times all by KO and 2 of the guys had loosing records. SO i don't see him having much of a chance with a guy who was able to go toe 2 toe with brewster.

                This should actually be good for some blood and bombs, but this has Don King written all over it.

                King just ruins divisions when he gets his mitts on a piece of the title. Who else wants to sign their life to King for a shot at Lyakhovich? McBride was probably one of the few with any sort of name recognition who would sign. King should just give up on getting all four titles and actually let Valuev and Sergei unify. Then he'd have the only unified HW champion and the biggest claim to being the real "champ." I guess he likes it like it is. I almost think he's keeping the titles apart for spite, now, since he couldn't get his hands on all four like he planned, so he's squatting on the ones he does have. Sad. The division could actually be very exciting if King were gone and the restraints were off the division and all the titlists and contenders could just get it on.

                  You have to be kidding me.

                  Sergei is on the same path Wlad is. By fighting bad people in a a bad era of boxing. McBride is a mere after thought.

                  I hope Sergei gets KTFO if he tries pulling a Wlad stunt.
