    They kept talking about how Klitschkos love to fight green fighters before they are fully developed and I kept wondering who were these guys? I remember when Wlad wanted to fight Chisora many people that was the case, however, he never did so that was a moot point.
    You guys have any opinion on that?

    They definently would love to get the fight now. A lot of people would say "They proved they can fight tall fighters by beating the best in Brittian".

    Not sure where this non-sense is coming from. The Brit commentators complain when the K brothers fight somebody 37 years old as "an old man" and "out of his prime". When they fight someone 26 years old they complain the opponents are "too inexperienced" and "not battle-hardened".

    And if the opponent is 30 years old they complain that the opponent was "badly injured" or "had a broken toe".

    Kinda sick of this moaning. They ought to complain that an opponent is **** when he's ****, but they're just always picking on the age factor (instead of skills) and that's just stupid.

    Solis and Kevin Johnson were young and inexperienced. Solis had LESS than 20 fights and Johnson had just a few over 20. And the Klits were offering fights to the super green Povetkin 5 fights ago as well as Chisora 5 fights ago.

    Forgot about Solis. Wasnt he a mandatory?
    Edit: he was :http://boxrec.com/media/index.php?title=Fight:1457652 read bottom sentence
    And are you kidding me about the other guys? Klitschkos fought them when they were not champions.

    Povetkin was a mandatory and Wlad had to fight him. Solis was a mandatory when he beat Austin.
    I believe Kingpin was too. Chisora was the only one and Wlad didnt fight him.
