Klitschko-Mormeck: Jean-Marc has the power to KO Wladimir
By Sean McDaniel: Few boxing fans are giving 39-year-old Jean-Marc Mormeck (36-4, 22 KO’s) much of a chance to beat IBF/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko (56-3, 49 KO’s) on December 10th at the ESPRIT arena, Düsseldorf, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany.
Mormeck, with his short arms and big power, he’ has the perfect leverage to make Wladimir pay for every missed punch. If Mormeck can connect with a right hand or a left hook to the off of one of Wladimir’s misses, it could be all over.
I don’t imagine a scenario where Wladimir will punch himself out like he did in his fights against Lamon Brewster and Ross Purity. This is more of Corrie Sanders type of situation where Wladimir goes into the fight without any respect for Mormeck’s power and runs into a big shot from the Frenchman while winging shots.
The one good thing that Wladimir has going for him now compared to in the Purity, Brewster and Sanders fight is that Wladimir knows how to hold when he’s hurt. He may need this if Mormeck connects with one of his power shots.
Another problem for Wladimir is that he’s facing a guy much smaller than him in this fight. Mormeck is really only 5’10″ if that, and the 6’6″ Wladimir is going to be fighting at a height that he’s not accustomed to. Wladimir is going to be in a strange situation where he’s punching at a height that ‘s not really used to and that’s could be a big disadvantage for him. As long as Wladimir uses his jab and fights on the outside, he’ll be okay but if he’s throwing left hooks and right hands, Mormeck can get him.

jean-marc has no chance to beat wlad …these words that you read everywhere just a part of boxing politics that he must told but this guy know better of us there is no chance for him…
haye also had the power! but cud he ko waldamir????
What a rubbish fight this will be. Won’t waste my time watching that!
Mormeck-French- No career-What a HOOT!!!!!
What is more pointless, the fight or this article not sure. Maybe they both are?
This is a wrongly made mismatch.,Another small man going against a super heavywieght champ./
Wlad is like Tyson. Nobody wants to get in the ring with him. If he wants to stay active ,then he has to take on all commers and that is the mark of a true champion.
How does Wladimir consider himself heavyweight champion? We all know there is only one heavyweight champion.
Is this article a joke? He might of had notable power about 10 years ago. Haye took his best punch, got up and KO’d him in his prime. Mormeck has no chance!
Mormeck might have had power once, does he still have it? If he does the hard part will be to get near wlad
@Andy. I have nothing bad to say about Wladimir. He always was a great human being, a gentleman, a great role model for young people, a great sportsman too, he behaves himself like a man has to. Respect to Wladimir, he deserved.
No one will fight Wlad,he has a right to earn while he can.The fault lies with the lazy fighters inhabiting the rest of the division.Oh and Mormecks got no chance.
Instead of accusing Wladimir for fighting that hopeless French you better accuse Povetkin for not having balls between his legs. Or that stupid guy Boytsov, or that Killer of the champions Helenius, or Warrior Arreola, or that cheap talker Fury. Wladimir KlitschKO is a real deal, he IS a Fighter, he IS a champ. Why those so-called contenders are not calling him out?! Answer my question?! Give me some options to choose for Wlad to fight at the end of this year instead of Mormeck!
Yes Morm has no chance against Wladimir but at least he wants to step in the ring.
Consider this – Povetkin, Arreola, Helenius, Boytsov, Fury have refused to fight uncle Wlad. The first boxer that agreed and was highly rated was Mormeck. Wlad has NO BODY to fight for a voluntary defence. At least the champ will remain active with the Mormeck fight. Will become 57-3 (50 KO’s). It is definitely a boxing greatness.
@Andy.
First. Lewis never had the balls. He always was a cheap talker. And he biatched out of Vitaliy. Lena Lewis is a cowardly biatch who talks sht about Vit and Wlad all the time. “I would KO him, i could do this and that” this is what Lena talks all the time about KlitschKO bros.
Second. Wlad-Mormeck fight is not a great contest, I agree. But Mormeck is not worse than what Lena Lewis has fought – Botha, Rahman, Tua, Grant. You can easily add Mormeck on that list.
People relax, this is just a keep busy fight.I think Wlad is just staying sharp until Dimitrenko vs Helenius gets done, then he would want the winner of that.And as a poster said earlier , Povetkin does not seem to want a fight with either Klitschko,Ustinov has a fight lined up already and is promoted my k-2 (klitschkos promotions)so that fight may never happen.Tyson Fury,Price Boytsev,Wilder,are all really green and need some more fight(hopefully against each other)Chambers,and Thmpson alrady have been knoecked out by Wlad,and Aerrola said he wants to fight Wlad in 2012. so not a lot to choose from
The French and Mormeck the perfumed one what a HOOT!!!
why doesnt Wlad stop boring everyone, reitre for a couple years, let whats around at the moment mature then comeback & beat them all -that would make him closer to being a legend
Wladimir is fighting a guy out of the second row, so what? This is not somewhat unheard of by any means. Some people will complain about the fly on the wall. Why don’t you guys just sit back and enjoy the show instead of belly aching and moaning about every little thing. In the end it does not matter who Wladimir or Vitali knocks out, a knockout is a knockout.
@andy, who else can wlad fight?? Haye dont deserve it, Povetkin clearly has no interest. Helenius, Fury, Price, Wilder and Perez are no where near ready for him and wont fight. Dimitrenko dont want it. already battered Thompson & Chambers, Arreola aint done much since losing to Adamek. Valuev and Solis are innactive
I know what your saying but youve got to think, is it him whos picked a bad fight or is it everyone else that dont want to fight him, giving him no other option but to look further down the ladder for a stay busy fight.
I believe what the guy s writing, we gonna see Wlad vs Sanders 2, Sanders was the big great underdog as Mormeck is now -Wlad gets knocked out by Mormeck
Another Lamb to the slaughter
A LOT of fighters have the power to KO Wlad, as his chin isn’t that great.
It’s getting into a position where you can unload of bomb that is the difficult part.
It’s virtually impossible to get past his jab.
I’d love to hear what Anonymous thinks about Wlad (greatest champ ever) taking on a chump like Mormeck. He’ll call Lennox Lewis a girl’s name but at least he had balls. I have to say I lost a lot of respect for Wladimir for taking this fight, I mean come on there’s better heavies out there….
Fighting at a height he’s not accustomed to? He’s been 6’6 for a long time. I think he’s used to fighting from that height. Wow….
At present there is no boxer wins Wlad.
haye could ko both guys even wiith a broken little toe haha
without haye the divison is dead sorry guys you no its true and the upcoming and best fighters like helanus fury price wont fight the klitchkos so we just have to wait till they retire for the divison to become watchable again
Just when you thought this site could not put out anymore nonsense, they drop this article on us! Haha, well done 24!
Maddalone said Adamek had much more power than other guys he ever faced (Morrmac, Holy) so how is taht possible that frenchman has the power to ko Wlad and every one says Adamek has no power???
mormeck has 22 kos in 40 fights.all of the kos came at light-heavy and cruiserweight.no kos at heavy.
corrie sanders on the other hand was a heavyweight his entire career and hit extremely hard
Yeah so does your Mother
cannot stop laughing at the french fruit.
Has he bollox
I just don’t understand this fight at all. – Haye beat Jean-Marc, and now Wladamir is fighting him. – A simple case of mismatching.
