Michael Katz: Lamon by KO in sixth

Friday, March 31st, 2006

The Wolfman can not endorse the White (a/k/a Big and Bad) Wolf. Curious to see how Buddy McMirt has changed Brewster.

Aaron Tallent: Brewster’s strength will prevail

Friday, March 31st, 2006

Lamon Brewster is the most exciting of our four heavyweight champions. Is it due to his power or the fact that none of his fights are sure things?

Alex Stone: Liakhovich is Balboaesque

Friday, March 31st, 2006

Sergei Liakhovich is Balboaesque. He’s got the heart of a lion, he’s tough, and he’s well… unknown. On top of that he has nothing to lose and everything to gain, which makes him a very dangerous opponent.

Zachary Levin: White Wolf in Deep-Freeze

Brewster needs to come out fast and furious, and gain Lyakhovich’s respect. The young Belarussian (he’s 29, a baby by today’s standards) is tough, confident and a better boxer than the WBO titlist.

In Boxing News: Klitschko Loses, Brewster Heats Up, Butler Pleads Guilty

Monday, March 27th, 2006

Former heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko’s career in Ukrainian politics might be over before it got started. His bold challenge for the mayoralty of Kiev, with no prior political experience, has been, according to early election results, a resounding dud.

In Boxing News: Hatton-Collazo, Tarver Star, Pass the Bread and Butterbean

Friday, March 24th, 2006

For those who hoped Ricky Hatton would fight Floyd Mayweather Jr., hold onto that hope for a little while longer, because it appears Ricky will fight New York southpaw Luis Collazo for the WBA welterweight title in Boston May 13.

How long Lord?

How long Lord? How long until You strike down Larry Merchant from the airwaves?
