Bout was rumoured a couple of months ago. Looks like it might happen, with Arum saying Foreman will receive a title shot and Kohl giving Dzinziruk the green light to go to America. Kohl is annoyed with Dzinziruk, who is upset and outspoken about fighting tomato cans in Germany, so he´s now fighting tomato cans in America, but Foreman should be his entry ticket into some bigger unification fights, maybe a rematch with Santos after he takes Alcines WBA belt. I just hope Saul Roman doesn´t KO Foreman. ::
Good. I've liked what I've seen of Dzinziruk so it's good to hear that he's making some noise about improving his competition. This adds a little interest to the Foreman-Roman fight...other than just the story of Yuri studying to become a rabbi.
I have really liked what I've seen of Dzinziruk....especially his jab. But I've been quite disappointed by his opposition. Good to hear he is questioning it and demanding bigger fights. His jab alone should take care of Yuri. Peace.
How is Sidorenko protected? He fought the current IBF champion Joseph Agbeko, he fought Ricardo Cordoba twice, who is in his prime, and has defeated Celestino Caballero. Plus Poonsawat, who just stopped former IBF superbantamweigt champ Somsak and will have a decent shot to dethrone Caballero. Plus he turned away the challenge from Tam´s close friend and four division champion Leo Gamez :: and has made two title defenses in Japan and France. I wish everybody at Universum was as protected as Sidorenko or Kotelnik. :dunno:
Speaking of Kotelnik, I see Salita is his #2. Maybe they can put Dazinziruk-Foreman and Kotelnik-Salita on the same card. ::
ummm...I think I'll fall back on them both being unknown. :: Or is Sidorenko also a two-time Nobel winner and former Time Man of the Year?
The Clottey-Cruz fight looked like it was stopped premature, though Clottey was clearly ahead and appeared to be wearing him down somewheat and Cruz would have likely only accumulated more punishment. Decent win for the IBF #1.
My reaction was similar, but mikE has already seen the light. :: Speaking of Agbeko...when the hell's he fighting next? I like him quite a bit and picked him to beat Perez. Peace.
So did I. Oh Sidorenko has another tough mandatory coming. That 22 year old southpaw from Panama Anselmo Moreno, who wasted Ricardo Vargas in a round and also holds a shutout decision victory over Felix Machado.
