Maybe he can scream "Who Nex" before the fight!!!
Peter actually looks in pretty good shape in a photo on fightnews.com today. But Peter has regressed in the 5 years since they last fought (seems like just yesterday since I was there) and Wlad has improved immensely. Glad to see ESPN stepping up as more eyes will see the fight than if it was just on HBO.

ESPN also came to the rescue when the Vitali Klitschko-Juan Carlos Gomez fight wasn't picked up by HBO. It was shown on ESPN Classic.

He seems to be more thick than fat. Photos with his shirt off he looks in reasonable shape. It's been speculated that he is much older than 30 and is more likely about 35. This could explain his slowing down and regressing.

Perhaps the Klitschkos should start claiming to have Jewish roots and wear a hexagram on their boxing trunks. Then not only would they have all their fights on HBO, they be interviewed on Good Morning America just like Yuri Foreman was!

That is exactly what Max Baer did.
The Klitschkos have both become so great that they not only win every fight they win every round and they do it without even getting their hair mussed, and that's what will happen here again.
They say with a belly like that you only got two choices in life - whether to fasten your belt on top of it or underneath it.

Peter is fat. I hate when people claim that he is simply "thick." His weight balloons and he fought Eddie Chambers at 265lbs. He was in better shape for his last fight at 237lbs but that's still overweight for his height.
I say Peter comes into the fight at 230 lbs which would astound me. Wlad will be 240 lbs. Cant wait for this fight. Wlad always looks great in rematches. Just ask Brewster and the other supposed second great affeletic fighter he KO'd 4 years ago (can't remember his name).

I'm hoping Wald will call out Harrison after he beat's Peter almost to death, give him two million, maybe even a million five, too go to germany around the last of December for a bigger fight than Haye.
just to push Haye out in the cold with nobody to fight!
Waldimir's fans will understand....

Right, but Harrison is the only "Bum" Haye can make any money by fighting, and that's only in England!whiteathlete33 said:

Yes but he could also challenge Tyson Fury. That would be an all England fight and Fury is better than Audley Harrison.

Right, Fury is a better fighter than Harrison, so that's why Haye is not gonna Fight him, and it would be about the same money for Haye.Edited by: lostwhiteathlete33 said:

If Harrison were to beat Haye I'm almost certain he would look for a big money unification fight against either brother as he is almost 40 and doesn't have any time left in the sport. Also Fury isn't ready yet for Haye. If you struggle with the Mcdermotts of the world you can't win against even a paper champion.lost said:

Yes, if Harrison somehow manages to defeat Haye, he very likely will next fight a Klitschko.
But he appeared old and slow in his fight with Sprott, and lost every round up until the KO. Harrison turns 39 in October.

I see a methodical Wladimir from the opening round, using distance, jabs and well timed crosses.Sham u allwill charge early, stumble often and throw wild punches while displaying brain-damaged effects he sustained in their first fight.
Sham u all is older, less confident and easier to hit this time around and thus, Wladimir gets a knock-out (jab, cross, hook combo) between rounds 5-8.
There won't be any quitting on the stool or TKO in this one, Peter will be dreaming of life back in Africa while the ref counts him out.

Peter was a real threat last time, but now he's just a re-tread and Vlad is on a roll.
Somewhere in the third or fourth round Vlad gets Peter dizzy with a left hook, just as he did in the last round of the first fight,
but this time follows up with a right cross to end it.
