Assuming Wladimir beats Haye to also take the WBA title, he and Vitali will hold every belt between them. Should they be compelled to fight each other to unify the championship? Have they ever fought each other in the ring?

 

Sir Henry Cooper, of Ali knockdown fame among other things, has passed away. He was seventy-six.

One or both would walk away first. That's been said before.

 

You want to see a fine movie? Check out "Klitschko" which just showed at Tribeca Film Festival. Simply fantastic.

 

$54.99 tonight for Pacquiao-Mosley. A fight I'd love to see, but that's just not the type of money you toss at the TV screen without thinking.

Just about go time for tonight's main event.

And eff Mayweather.
