OT: Combat sports

Its all good, saw some solid bouts and KO's in the welterweight, light heavy, and diesel division. Got a picture with Emmanuel Steward so well worth it. He looked at my Barca jersey peculiarly, trying to figure out what state and boxing school I was from

 

Is it bad if I don't know either of them?

 

Will Roy please hang up the gloves immediately? Nobody's trying to see one of the best p-for-p fighters ever die in the ring. We don't need a real life Apollo Creed

It's messed up.

 

He should have lost do Valuev but judges gave him the win. Did you see the sit down withMax Kellerman those two had on HBO? Man, watching Vlad struggle to talk back to haye in English was nerve wrecking.

 

Lol what? Klitschko actually was much better than I thought he'd be. Said he's a wannabe with flashy flash lol. 6:55 to 8:00 is epic, he should be in Terminator 5

I don't expect Wlad to talk to Haye at all on Saturday. Wlad will talk with his fists. I hope we don't hear of Haye after Saturday.

 

The staredown was cool but you can tell that Vlad was frustrated because Haye is very quick with his words and English is Vlad's third language after all.

 

He was much better than I expected. Pretty much owned Haye for at least half of this interview, you can pretty much tell who will win the fight.

 

4-2.

 

If Vlad avoids a ko in this last round he should take this by UD. I have it 7-3-1 to Vlad.

 

In the end I have Vlad winning seven rounds to four with one even.

 

Vlad wins a wide decision but this doesn't help boxing. We needed a Vlad ko or Haye win.

 

That was pathetic, HBO guys were comparing Haye to a soccer diver lol. Yawn...what a snooze fest. Larry Merchent owned Roy Jones, Jones tried to defend Haye looking for a 1 punch KO, and Larry said stop wasting my time lol!!!! Only the 12th Rd did Klitchko do anything significant. Was waiting for those 1-2 combos and got to see it in the 12 rd...great.

Klitchko inc. hold all the belts, totally wiped away everyone who stands in their path. Next up is the 2 of them starring in Terminator 5, nothing more left to prove unless they fight each other which their too doctorate to do

 

Wlad confirmed that he is the best heavy out there. I think the two will stay champs until retirement. Who out there is any good? Where are the young guns?

 

The only decent fighters out there who can maybe challenge the Klitschko's are Adamek (who Vitaliy is fighting in September), Povetkin, and maybe Boytsov. There are alos guys like Dereck Chisora who could be potential challengers. I think Vitaliy is gonna fight this next fight with Adamek. If he wins, and he should, he will probably fight David Haye cause apparently he wants to knock him out a lot. Then Vitality will retire and reliquish his belt. Wlad will fight someone for that belt. If he wins then Wlad will hold everything. He will defend the titles for some time probably till he's 38 and then will retire as long as nobody beats him.

 

Adamek's too small to pose any challenge really. Wasn't he originally a cruiserweight or something?

I see Vlad outpointing Povetkin to a wide decision.

 

Adamek, actually, spent most of his career as a Light Heavyweight (a notch below the Cruisers). His cruiserweight career was very brief - five or six fights, after which he moved up to HW..

I think Wlad knocks Povetkin out.

 

Yea I saw it. I swear, his last like 5 fights have just been brawls, no gameplan or anything and you can attribute that to his downright awful coaching staff.
