I heard Sergei and Ruiz are fighting on 10/13. Anyone know if it will be on tv? Cant wait for Sultan and Evander.

[Stinky gloves]

"Current Top 10 Heavies" .. .so why do you list top 15?

I would drop down Thompson below Valuev, Gomez out of top 10,
McCall should be in top 10, Ruiz and Brock in top 15.

[ptrcKosage]

I meant to type Current Top 15. Jet lagged still I guess. My bad.
I forgot about Brock. He did beat Jamel awhile back.

[brooklyn1550]

In that case...
11. Oliver McCall
12. Calvin Brock
13. Alexander Povetkin
14. Evander Holyfield
15. Jameel McCline

On the Outside Looking In...
Eddie Chambers
Alexander Dimitrenko
Juan Carlos Gomez
Lamon Brewster

You caught me. I still like Evander, he is my favorite Heavy of all time. I don't like his chances against Sultan though. 115-111 is what I am predicting in favor of Ibragimov.

No, the worst may happen for Holly is a draw due to his inactivity.
I think he will UD Ibragimov or stop him in 8.

[ptrcKosage]

In Russia! I don't think the roof will let that happen.
Evander might pull off the upset. It would be sweet if he did.:happy

Hi,

Regarding Vlad Virchis, how would you rate his power compared
to say a Ron Lyle, Earnie Shavers or George Foreman?

I have never seen Virchis fight, though I have heard that he
is powerful.

Right up there with those guys. I saw like 5 of his fights on a DVD I rented in a videostore in Tver. The guy has minimal skills, but if he catches you :dead
Here is a link to Virchis vs Serin [Only registered and activated users can see links]

[Grebfan9]

Hi,

WOW!!! So, if he used a jab to set up his power punches, he
could really be a threat to the top guys.

Does it appear that Virchis has a good chin?

His best assets as a boxer are his chin and power. He will be tough to beat. He is a little slow at times, but can mix it up when he needs to.
