To beat the younger Klitschko and become the first French World Champion Heavyweight, Jean-Marc Mormeck will have to defeat the odds and surprise the Ukrainian theoretically superior in almost all areas. An impossible task ... But impossible is not French!

It is not necessary to be crazy to believe in the victory of Jean-Marc Mormeck ... But it helps! When advancing to the ring of the Spirit Arena in Düsseldorf on Saturday night, former world champion light-heavyweight will perform a task at least as difficult as that on which his two predecessors only broke the teeth .


Like Georges Carpentier and Lucien Rodriguez, he will go and fight in the cave of the champion. Even more than Carpentier and Rodriguez, Mormeck will suffer a significant physical deficit. Carpentier was too heavyweight and not spent by the category of "cruiser" that did not exist at the time. However, the day of his fight with Dempsey, he moved to his ideal weight (78 kg) making less than 8 pounds to the champion, which does not prevent him from suffering a KO in round 4.
Heavyweight genuine low tonnage, Lucien Rodriguez appeared very frail face Larry Holmes in Scranton in 1983. He had, however, that five pounds and a few hundred grams lighter than the old sparring Ali before whom he bowed to points.Mais almost 30 years have passed and templates are no longer the same. With the Klitschko brothers, and others, boxing is back in the era of super-heavy standard gauge which is around 2 meters and 110 kilos.

It's probably a dozen pounds and a head that will exceed its champion challenger in Düsseldorf. But reducing the difference between the two men jockey for these considerations would be to forget the boxing itself ...


For theoretical gap in boxing between the two men did not weaken! Wladimir is younger than four years as Guadeloupe, but it has a much greater experience with 50% more fights and three times as many world championships, all achieved in Heavy unlike the challenger.
Technically, the champion knows its size advantage with his arm before and rarely misses an opportunity to punish his opponent with his right hand at the slightest mistake. Finally, unlike boxing most basic of its elder, Wladimir has a technical background that gives it a great comfort on every shot!
What to do to reverse such a mountain? What advantages has Jean-Marc Mormeck? First, the challenger will necessarily be noted that Klitschko does not like back. Each time a challenger manages to shove, the Ukrainian lost the bulk of its resources and its effectiveness.


Secondly, the list stops there, Wladimir does not appear with the mental strength of his older brother, and perhaps the only point that really outperforms the Mormeck.
Add to that a rating that ranges from 12 to 20 against in a bookmakers, a U.S. preparing replaced by an internship Insep, a shortage of sparring size XXL and you have all the ingredients to witness the defeat of logic French, or the biggest upset in boxing hexagonal since the victory of Rene Jacquot of Don Curry or that of Gilles Elbilia Land Nino LaRocca. A feat that would be worthy of history books
