    Wladimir Klitschko will be stripped of his Ring title if he doesn't fight a top 5 contender before july next year. He already has a fight on November, so he is running out of time.

    His choices at the moment are Vitali, Povetkin, Haye, Adamek and Pulev. The only fight I can see happening is Pulev.

    Vitali will never happen.

    Haye rematch isn't going to happen anytime soon.

    Povetkin avoids Wlad like the plague.

    Adamek would be a horrible mismatch.

    Pulev looks like the only real option.

    Didn't Pacquaio hold the Ring Title at 140 for like 3 years without even defending it?

    No biggie. Wlad will destroy whoever gets put in front of him.

    I'm wonderin how much longer Povetkin can keep his WBA belt without fightin Wlad. Don't the regular champ only get 18 months with that belt before he gets forced to fight the super champ? Can't remember how long Povetkin's had that title.

    Once he stops duckin or has his hand forced, Wlad murks him. When Helenius gets back, he can get some too.

    Stripping Wlad of the ring title would be laughable, and I don't think either he or us, would give a damn.

    Why do people care about this Mope? He never brings an exciting fight to the table. Ever

    Yeah All Ring champs now have to face 1 top 5 guy per yr and schedule a fight at their weight every 18 months

    also they become more lenient on how to get the belt

    i like it cause now champs wont sit on titles...though Wlad tries his best to fight but a lot of guys wont fight him or he has already beaten them

    The Ring just keep confirming to me what a farce they are.

    The weakness always was that someone could sit in the belt or fight duds. Remember the LHW masters circuit of Tarver, Jones, Hopkins etc. passing around the belt between them all. That's always been clear.

    Thing is, they can strip someone, but do nothing to make fights. No fighter without rocks in their head will take a fight just to keep the Ring belt, especially if it will cost them their ABC belt.

    One good thing about this in my eyes is it might stop people confusing the Ring belt with lineal champs.

    I can't believe we're even discussing the Ring stripping someone. It's only a matter of time before we see them start assessing fees.

    Non Issue since Potevtkin is ready to fight him come march.

    Wlad vs Potvetkin in March is happening.

    We're just waiting for Boxing Domain to come on and make it official.:D
