No, now we are treated to supposed "great" Wlad, not just losing to, but get stopped by a career journeyman, a chubby semi-retired fighter who would rather be playing golf, and a mediocre heavy with slightly less defense than a heavybag.
Well David Haye has made the HoF by achieving just 2 of those titles. Ironically, in Estrada, Golota and Arreola, Adamek has probably beaten better comp than Haye has at heavyweight {Bonin, Barrett, Ruiz and Valuev}
No...now we are treated to Wlad, Vitali, Povetkin, Adamek, Boytsov.....and not a Moorer or a Fatty Foreman in sight. Halcyon days, Halcyon days.:crafty::crafty:
Yes, I believe that drew guffaws of pleasure from Slapsie Maxie..............Of course, Arreola need not ponder a comeback opponent, as he is now BANNED from HBO.
You get a ban off HBO for using that sort of language. He already just served one for his language after the Vitali fight.
I certainly do. I hope somebody pops him the question,.. maybe Povetkin, with his WADA-binder, will become the most avoided man at heavyweight since David Haye.
That's not remotely a treat. It's like being sent to your room without supper. Ugh. And it's fun to watch you distort the truth by pretending Foreman was the dominant heavy of the time. And even old and fat, he was is better than all of the fighters who have stopped Wlad. No matter how you try to gloss it over and post pictures and repeat the tired "Halcyon days" like a parrot ...Wlad was stopped three different times by nothing special fighters. And the division is at an all new low for interesting fights.
HALCYON DAYS!!! BRING BACK THOSE HALCYON DAYS!!! So what are you saying mate? That the Foreman who was so UTTERLY flustered by a former 175lbr was fighting for the title despite him and Moorer not even being the two best men in the division? Doesn't sound very hopeful to me.
I was initially going with Arreola but after hearing that his was as fat as ever i switched my pick to Adamek by decision. Adamek aint great but he's not Brian Minto.
gotta give it to adamek generally puts on good fights and fights often, the hw division needs more dudes like him
What in the world are you talking about? Are you talking just to have something to say? You're not making an ounce of sense.
As Ive said before - just like lower weight fighters have to make weight, heavyweight fighters should be subject to a bodyfat analysis. There has to be a way to make that implementable. I honestly don't think anything else is gonna save this regurgitated dogs dinner of a division at this point.:shit:
Thanks. I thought it was just me. Sometimes Irish is so desperate for the last word that he ends up channeling qwerty. It probably sounded better in his head.
Warning: Historical revision in process. As if those were the most significant fights of that decade. ::
Mate those guys would fucking obliterate everyone outside the Klitschkos today. And frankly a couple of them would have a very sturdy shot against Wlad too.
To me, Chris Arreola is the second coming of Eddie "The Animal" Lopez. And I think he's peaked. He can't control his weight at all. He's just a gimmick at this point (like a little kid who gets attention from bigger kids when he curses). Once he stepped up to the world-class level, he's been coming up short and taking harsh beatings. He'll probably get a fight with one or two more young names. He'll do progressively worse each time. And he'll disappear. I don't know why HBO put all their eggs in one basket with this guy when they could've been showcasing any number of young fighters like David Haye, Oldanier Solis, Denis Boytsov, etc. They need to reinvest in heavyweights. Hold more Night of the Young Heavyweights cards like they did in the 80s and 90s. Put together a Boytsov-Sam Peter fight. On the undercard, showcase young guys like U.S. Olympic Bronze Medalist Deontay Wilder. He's 9-0 with 9 knockouts. He's only 24. Or England's 2008 Olympian David Price. He's 5-0, with 4 knockouts. In other words, try a little bit. The young fighters are out there. Don't just pick one and if you happen to select the one guy with no discipline who blows up like a balloon it's all over.
