What's the problem of Prime Andrew Golota?

[goldenryan]

He was leading in the judges score cards in his 2 fights with Riddick Bowe before he was disqualified for excessive low blows in the later rounds.

Golota could have been a World Heavyweight Champion in the 1990's, if he was not temperamental and mentally weak.


First Fight Score Cards: | judge: Steve Weisfeld 67-65 | judge: Luis Rivera 67-65 | judge: George Colon 67-66 ~

Second Fight Score Cards: | judge: Steve Weisfeld 75-71 | judge: Shafeeq Rashada 75-73 | judge: Al DeVito 74-72 ~

He did better under Lou Duva, but early Golota was a biter and threw the low blow way too often.

Prime Andrew Golota had the chance to become a great European Heavyweight Champion in the 1990's, if he only had the dedication, discipline, and the killer instinct of the Klitschko Brothers.

Everybody hated wladmir and Vitali because they are currently dominating a weak era in the Heavyweight division, but they both improved their boxing skills after they were beaten by lesser fighters.

It's not their fault that the Heavyweight Division suck today.

They are dominating their opponents, and wladimir is now officially a Lineal Heavyweight Champion after beating Ruslan Chagaev.

I love to see wladimir and Vitali in 2010.

It sucks that both Prime Andrew Golota and Prime David Tua never held the heavyweight title despite being a better boxer than Nikolay " I robbed a 46 yrs.old Holyfield in Switzerland" Valuev, and Leon " I only had 7 fights, and I beat a past his prime Muhammad Ali" Spinks.

Valuev and Spinks are the 2 worst heavyweight champions of all time.

the man bites

Golota was a trashy fighter. Low blows and biting! And crumbled quickly when he faced Lennox Lewis. Bowe seemed to be damaged goods when he fought Golota.

killer instinct of the Klitschko Brothers

You were kidding here right?

First of all...Golota is an imbecile...it doesn't suck that he didn't become champion...he has no one to blame but himself.

David Tua was a powerful puncher...but one-dimensional. I consider him the modern era Ernie Shavers (another monster puncher who never became champion).

Vitali and Wladimir have said a million times that they will NEVER fight each other...so forget it.

Add John Ruiz amongst the worst heavyweight champions ever....oh...and Primo Carnera as well.

Vitali has two loses...against Lennox Lewis...he gave as good as he got...too bad that cut forced the fight to be stopped and award the fight to Lewis. His other loss was against Chris Byrd. But he was easily beating the tarp out of Byrd...but Vitali tore his rotator cuff during the fight...and had to quit between the 9th and 10th rounds.

In two weeks...Chris Arreola will face Vitali Klitschko for the WBC tile...it could be interesting...Arreola is a brawler and can punch (but he's always outta shape)...Vitali is still the favorite...the thing though is that Vitali is 38 years old...doesn't fight often...and it's going to be held in Arreola's backyard...Los Angeles. I mean...I'm still picking Vitali to win...but...you never know...

Worse than Rahman?

Rahman KOd Lennox Lewis...he gets my respect for that.

Valuev is a giant bum of the first degree...man o' man he sucks.

We need new blood in the Heavyweight division. Someone exciting, devastating power. Like a Mike Tyson.
