The only way i could see a win for Rahman is if he doesnt stand directly in front of Klitschko and not let him control with the jab. if Rahman can slip and move and get inside with his hard right hand then he has a shot

I'm rooting for Vitali as always! I've been a fan of the Klitcskos for ages, and I'm not a huge fan of Rahman.
I think Vitali's got it, don't really see Rahman pulling this one of unless he does what he did to Lewis.

Between Rahman's bad training habits and chin and Vitali's bad defense, there are too many indeterminable factors in this equation to pick a winner with any sort of accuracy.

I think it is easier to go with Klit but the thing is whenever hes been in with an A class guy he has found a way to lose. I wouldnt be suprised to see Rahman win it even though Klit is a big favorite in the eyes of many.

My problem is that Vitlali has never beaten a better technical boxer than Rahman. Especially one that can hit. And Rahman is going to have trouble against anyone who can take his punch, hit hard, and hit throw for 12 rounds.

Youre right this fight is an enigma. Its not really a good matchup for either. Plus we know that you dont necessarily have to KO Vitali to beat him. We'll see.

In that case become a hitman,

I would like to see Rayman take this convinsingly but he will probably be on the canvas before the nights out, between his loopy shots and klitskov's reach I don't see him taking this

Klitschko will jab his face off and stop him late or win a big points decision. I do think Klit has genuinly improved as fighter over the last 2 years and I can't see anyone beating him for a good while as he seems to have a rock solid chin as well.
