90 minutes of build up, 3 minutes of posturing and a buckled leg, glad it wasn't PPV, or Haye vs Klitschko, it's a shame because this could have been a nice little upset to the brothers
said to nolly earlier that Haye and the Klitschko brothers are the only heavyweights that actually bother getting in shape. Solis was in pathetic shape , he had more rolls than Greggs. I can't believe that the Germans lap up their fights when they only ever fight has beens or overhyped fatties
The thing that annoys me more than anything is the fact that none of the governing bodies will make the brothers number one contenders for each others titles and make them face each other.
thing is even when Tyson was dominating the heavyweights the division was still of some interest , now there is no one coming through outside the three champs.
Fortunately there are plenty of other decent fighter throughout the divisions and as you say nolly the light welters are really making things exciting right now
what happened imo was when eastern bloc fighters got the ok to go pro they started to dominate and there styles of upright boxing styles dont really sell it to the boxing fan,black heavyweights from us have receded because there is more money in us football and basketball,a real shame i think the 80s with witherspoon and thomas had some real characters,haye and one of the brothers has to happen to keep it alive. Nothing coming through
my old trainer a charlton fan i believe trains tom dallass,looks good but they all get koed before long,hopefully not him he throws nice but a touch stiff
