Not Laun Kransiqi ... but Segei Liakhovich on April 1st.

Not a terrible opponent, but hardly mister deserving. Suppose its better than Valuev's 1st title defence.

Also, I thought Bubi's tongue was in cheek when he made a remark a few weeks ago to a post and he mentioned Axel Schultz - nope, the former world champion... err sorry I mean challenger is coming back.

He's 37 now, so thats a worry - but if he has kept a clean lifestyle and looks as sharp as before then I think he can make some impact, especially vs the smaller fighters where he can use his jab.

Hell of a pair of world title "contenders." One gets a shot after losing his last two meaningful fights, the other gets one off the back of taking a year off. And who says the heavuweight division is in turmoil?

btw - Beck has been removed as Valuev's opponent for the 1st from the boxrec sheduled - any significance in this?

What happened to Don Kings title tournament thing? All 4 champions are under his control now aren't they?

I know, it needs sorted out. If Klitscko beats Byrd which I think he will, then a natural re-match is Klitschko Vs Brewster, that also takes care of two belts the WBO and IBF and move on from there. If these wins happen, I'd like to see that re-match in the summer.
