I agree with Rahman. Sounds like Klitschko is ducking him, but at least its for money. Right now Brewster draws more money and interest. Thoughts?
Rahman, never one to hold his tongue, responded to Klitschko's Brewster talk in an open letter to the media – sort of like passing a note in class that everyone can see.
"I am writing you because it seems that you forgot about me, your mandatory challenger," Rahman wrote. "I must be the most invisible 6-foot-2, 240-pound black man on the planet. You have ducked out on me since April 30, June 18, and July 30, with varying excuses and injuries which I never quite believed existed.
"You have the nerve to call out another fighter when you have clear and present danger staring you in the face. But that is appropriate, because you better go down the yellow-brick road and get a heart before you step in the ring with me. I am an extremely credible opponent, so I assume that your constant avoidance of anything regarding the name Rahman is a very smart tactic. … I think that it is hilarious that some consider you a champion and the man to beat when you are scared to face me. Now you are suddenly able to fight in September? We can fight in August if you like."
