    Rahmans holding isn't even really his "style" like a Ricky Hatton who likes to get inside and rough people up. He doesn't even do it to avoid punishment. His holding seems to purely based on his fat ass needing to rest every 20 second of every round.

    Rahman could always suprise. With all his dissapointing outings he is basically intact. and if he did manage to beat vlad who,lets face it, is not mr stability... then Rahmin could claim to have beat two of the best heavies of this era. He has to know this and Rahman is not stupid. If I am him I work my ass off fof this fight and give it everything... he could build a legacy if he wins this fight... it becomes Rahman the man who drew with Tua after a debatable loss, rubber matched with Lewis and beat Vlad after Vlad's brother bitched out and ran away from him....

    Its been do or die for Rahman and he has another chance now... Gotta love boxing!

    Klitshcko will wear and eventually knock out Rahman.

    Is Bowe fighting? If he is I hope he dies of heart failure in the ring.

    Vlad would be scared to rematch right away. He would pull a Brewster and maybe a sanders. I.e. lets wait til Brewster is a one eyed shell of his self... Corrie Sanders is almost as fat as a wedding pig... so in a few years Vlad will no doubt avenge that loss.

    I liked the billing for Rahman/Maskaev II when that fight was made: "America's Last Line of Defense" :lol:

    I bet Rahman's trainer was disgusted with him.

    254 is not good for Rahman, not good at all. He's cashing out.

    yeah I am totally going to recend my prediction, after I saw how much Rock-head weighed he is going to get smoked, 254 is way too big and he really is past it, you would think fighting for the Heavyweight Championship of the world would motivate you to be in shape but dayum...:nono:

    My official pick is Wlad, but I'm really hoping that Rahman KTFO's him hard.

    Yep, the only reason Rahman kept on his shirt at the weigh-in was because he didn't want to intimidate Wlad anymore than was already the case.

    Should be a great end to just a wonderful year of HBO boxing.

    I thought you guys were joking.... No fucking way no fucking way no fucking way. He really came in at that weight?

    If he did they should call the fight off and give Vlad a decision and not pay Rahman. No fucking way.
