Emmanuel Steward's New Year's Resolution
Emmanuel Steward's plan is to make Wladmir Klitschko the #1 heavyweight by the end of 2006. I don't think that this will happen, but ya never know.
Wlad had been written off by most fans after his KO losses to Lamon Brewster and Corrie Sanders. His tough win over Sam "The Nigerian Nightmare" did a lot to renew the boxing public's interest, and it certainly helps to be training with Steward.
I'm inclined to root for Wlad---hey, he's the only big-time heavyweight left with a PhD, ya know---, but the guy does have a glass jaw, and I just don't see him consistently beating first-tier competition.
