After the Klitchsko-Williams fight this moron goes on radio and totally rips on Vitaly and the fight and makes it seem like Klitchsko is one bad fighter.What was this guy watching?Granted the fight was no classic but give Vitaly some credit he did his job and did it well.Sugar's attempt at humour was also sickening although Mr.Valvano gave him more than just a courtesy laugh.Once again the media is just too darn afraid to compliment a white heavyweight becuase they might be accused of racial bias.

I recently told a friend about Klitchsko and that he was a heavy weight champ. Guy never heard of him. And he's a fight fan. No surprise though. Remember all the people that said a white heavy weight champ would energise the fight game? Guess not. I have not heard one word on the guy in the mainstream press. They figure if they don't say anything maybe he'll go away.

I think the way boxing could be energised would be if you had an undiputed heavyweight champ who is white but he needs to be American.Tommy Morrison could have filled that role perfectly.Currently Joe Mesi might be the guy if he ever gets back.
