      I believe Brock has a great chance of tearing up the HW division...He hs all the tools to do so. I hope he steps it up from his last performance. He really looked slugglish..He will beat Wald very convincingly...I then hope he looks to uni the belts..

        Brock, I don't think has the umph deep down. He's a smart fighter; but not spectacular. He's got power; but no real killer instinct. He's the "Boxing Banker". You ever seen a hungry banker?

        I think Wlad should stop him within 5 or so; and Liakhovish would beat him too, probably by a later round stoppage. But, Brock could outbox both Maskaev and Valuev; but he wouldnt' stop either I don't think.

        So, the answer to the thread is......no.

              the best odds for wladamir on the web are 4-1 favorite.

              i bet 1000 bucks on him to win 250, and thats the best you can do

              if you bet 1000 on brock you can win upwards of 4000 depending on your bookie

              best odds for wladamir are on pinnacle sportbook

              brock doesent stand a chance, put your money on wladamir and let it earn some interest. brock is not as good as chris byrd, nor is he as tough as byrd where he can survive after hes been down.

                McCline was never a hard puncher. Maybe with his bulk he is an average puncher but P4P he hits about as hard as Chris Byrd. McCline is a nice guy from what I've heard but he is not championship material and will never be more than a solid B- gatekeeper.

                  the punch he put brock down was nothing more than an average shot

                  brock was leaning and off balance and got caught, he got up cause the punch wasnt even hard to enough to really hurt him, it just woke him up and without the KD he probably would have fought a ***** ass fight all the way through.

                    That's the way I remember it too.

He was beating the larger McCline all over the ring and was close to putting him down in the final seconds of the same round. The round was scored 9-9 because Brock actually won it even with an early knockdown.
                      Is that the same McCline who Wlad mopped the floor with?
