Who should fight a Eliminator for shot at Wlad?

[Vincent Gottschalk]

There as been a lot of talk of Byrd and Brock fighting a eliminator for shot at Wlad, bad idea I think:-( Though I think there should be a eliminator for a shot at Wlad I don't think those to should fight each other for it.:nono My pick would be........

Hasim Rahman vs Sergei Lyakhovich

Who would you guys pick for a eliminator for shot at Wladimir?:huh

[Shpion]

I personaly prefer Rahman, so we can finally see him getting KTFO into retirement.

I can see a fight set up with Golota in less than a year $$$.

[MrMagic]

Well, neither Hasim or Serguei are noticeable.
I'd say, this kid.. Chris Arreola fights someone noteworthy and puts himself in poisiton for a eliminator.

Please! Areola first needs to fight and beat a Top 25 fighter before even thinking about an eliminator let alone title shot.

Virchis/Arreola vs Laikhovitch or Valuev

[MrMagic]

He is ranked #10 by the Ring.
And from what I have seen he's got some tools, let him fight Virchis, like Stinky says. AND then get a title-elim.

Damn, I knew it. This fucking Ring Magazine puts un undeserving fighter into their Top 10 and there are people ready to jump on his bandwagon.

[H .]

Valuev vs Liakhovich :yep

[MrMagic]

Damn, I knew it. This fucking Ring Magazine puts un undeserving fighter into their Top 10 and there are people ready to jump on his bandwagon.

:lol:
I wouldn't go that far, Im not implying he's ready for a title shot, Im only saying, if he fights a guy noticeable.. he could get himself ready for a title-elim :good

Why, he said lets him fight Virchis first then elliminator.
Its alway a good custom that up comers fight each other
before get to title shot position.

[Vincent Gottschalk]

:hey I think Holyfield should fight Corrie Sanders in other old timers fight:yep

[Shpion]

:lol:

Well, fighting puffs like Derek Berry 12-8-1 definetly does not help this cause.

But fighting Virchis before getting to eliminator position is right way.

[C Money]

Maskaev vs Peter or Chagaev vs Ibragimov:good

Wlad should only be chasing the other champs and REAL resopect at this point. Outside of those two?? Corrie Sanders would be significant so that Wlad can claim to have beaten every opponent he faced similar to Lennox lewis.

The rest of thw Hw's should be squaring off vs each other to move up the rankings and show worthiness of a shot at the top. Another eliminator involving Wlad and a non-belt holder other than Sanders is a total waste of time.

I am not quite clear about your question but what is wrong with Virchis?

[MrMagic]

Looked like a statement to me :huh

[C Money]

He's trying but the other "champs" won't step up. Well, actually it's more about the promoters/managers not stepping up...

The only camp that I feel is serious about unifying - even with Wlad - is Ibragimov and his people. I really hope Sultan beats Chagaev b/c I feel he is serious about unifying with Wlad next year.


I meant no discredit to Wlad and believe that he's willing to face the other champs. IMO, he should be extremely vocal about the situation and refuse to entertain other "eliminator" discussions.

That would be nice, but unfortunately Ross Puritty ([Only registered and activated users can see links]) would have to come out of retirement...
