Gets no respect from the media but clearly the best boxer around. Classy individual as well. A doctor who is an avid chess player and fluently speaks five languages (doesn't shy away from it, usually address various fans around the world after matches).

The media constantly goes on about how it's a weak generation of boxing but it was none other than Klitschko's older brother who scared Lennox Lewis into retirement.

The Klitschko brothers have said that they'll never fight each other but honestly that's the only way I see them getting any respect from the world media.

Wasn't a fight at all. I was truly pumped for this fight, Haye's trash talking was extraordinary, but he didn't back it up today. Everytime he caught Klitschko, he would back off instead of coming forward and continuing the punches.

And then the fuging flopping. Good fuging god man. I raged changed the channel so many times cuz I was so fed up with it.

After Stewart bitched the ref out, the diving took a nasty turn.

Haye was injured - he was very foolish in not postponing the fight.

As for Klitschko - he's a prime example of why the Heavyweight division sucks. He's boring and bang average. It's a super, super weak generation of heavyweights.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

      NHL Draft 2025

      By Rocky Davis · Posted

      Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
