The 35-year-old Ukrainian will defend his titles against Mormeck in Duesseldorf, Germany on December 10.

LOL Mormeck's wearing a turtleneck. . . Haha, only thing worse than that is a scarf. . .

Wladimir is building up his fanbase in France. . . Really wish he was fighting somebody else, though. . . Oh well, when all is said and done NOBODY . . . LITERALLY NOBODY will be left!

WHen he breaks Joe Louis's record for HW title defenses he will get the credit he deserves. . . But the haters will find some way to discredit him. LOL imagine what Wlad would have done to Joe Louis. . .

This is a terrible fight. There is really nobody else for Wlad to fight at this point so I guess it's good that he's staying active rather than just waiting. I give Mormeck very little chance. His best days are way behind him.

my prediction: jab, jab, jab, grab, jab, jab, grab, jab, grab, jab, jab, jab, BOOM! Steelhammer.

Mr T. is going to get clobbered


i know wladimir has fought nearly everybody already and none of the fights have been worthy of a second go


but chambers, thompson, and chagaev REMATCHES are all better than this fight. and they were stinkers and not competative.


christ almighty. it's one thing when you send a no hoper out there to get blasted by young mike tyson in exciting and quick fashion

it's entirely something different to send a no hoper out there against wladimir, who literally goes the first few rounds without throwing more than a handful of power punches


perhaps the intention is to create something for the highlight reel before he heads to america to take on 25 lbs lighter (and still next to no - hoper) chris arreola in what is almost guaranteed to be a fun fight. if chris shows up at 225 he will at least make wladimir work and perhaps even take a few punches

hell, not only is evander holyfield a big name, he's a rougher task at this stage in his career.
this mormeck fellow is a career cruiserweight. he fought for six years as a LHW.
he barely beat fres oquendo. he lost rounds to vinny maddalone. his biggest win is TIMUR ibragimov and even that fight was close!
he's almost 40.

stay busy wladimir..
but for what // who?
who is after arreola? helenius? he looks decent but he has sixteen fights.

i dont think the klitschkos have much left to prove and thus not a long time left in boxing

he would have ruined his trunks by getting blood all over them

i know you're a troll and ****, but really
this is a boxing forum. you shouldn't even be here if you're going to disgrace the sport with ***** like that

prime joe louis might be the best fighter to ever lace up gloves.
he's up there with 60's ali
robinson at 147 knocking dudes out and taking punches better than any man alive
armstrong weighing about 135ish and taking on everybody under the sun for world championships from 26 to 47 and even 60 where he got a disputed draw
135 lb duran on his best night
126 lb pre-crash willie pep
reportedly harry greb was on that level as well, but there's no film of the man fighting.


joe louis would knock wladimir out cold with a combination
real talk. probably within the first half of the fight. once he got his range figured out it would basically be over.

out cold and on the ground. if conscious at all, only slightly. i think the word is supine.

and i'm generally found around here defending wladimir and calling him a great fighter (which he is)

So, it is s disgrace to say that Wlad would beat Louis. But somehow it is not a disgrace to say that a 200 pound man would beat a 250 pound man with skills that also happens to be 5" taller. Okay, it makes complete sense to me??

Some people are happier living in the past and believing all their old heroes were infallible supermen. It's good for them because they know they'll never have to worry about being proven wrong. The truth is nobody knows what would happen in any of these fantasy contests.
