By Eric Thomas: IBF/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko (58-3, 51 KO’s) can’t afford to take chances against the hard hitting but primitive #14 WBA, #15 WBO contender Mariusz Wach (27-0, 15 KO’s) in this title defense for Wladimir on November 10th at the O2 World Arena, Altona, in Hamburg, Germany. Wach “The Viking”, isn’t anywhere close to being in the same class as the 6’6″ Wladimir in terms of talent and overall offensive weaponry and defensive skills. However, Wach has a powerful right hand and if he lands it flush, he’s capable of knocking anyone out in the division.

Being tall won’t be enough for Wach
