Vitali Klitschko has NO respect for Bermane Stiverne

    Stiverne has fought and won two eliminators to get his line for a title shot. He has called Vitali out and Vitali has ignored him.

    IF Vitali's next defence is NOT Stiverne, then I have SERIOUS question marks. It's a no brainer, any next opponent that is NOT Stiverne is just damn silly.

    I think Vitali COULD lose, not will, but COULD. His mind isn't exactly all in Boxing anymore and Chisora took him the distance while giving a competitive fight.

    Vitali is filthy rich and is preventing Stiverne from putting food on his table.

    Vitali knows that if he doesn't rematch Charr, his resume will be tainted forever.

    Who cares, David Haye is taking over the division when the Klits retire, bums like Stiverne won't get a look in.

    I'm a Vitali fan but the whole situation with Stiverne has been embarrassing. If he doesn't fight Stiverne next then it's very hard to defend Vitali's decision.

    For me personally the only other fight that would be acceptable would be Haye as their fight has been talked about for years and Haye would provide a big payday. But Vitali would have to relinquish the title if he took this route.

    Vits shows no respect for the sport. If he were taking on better fighters this could be excused, but he isnt.

    Mauricio Sulaiman has accepted Klitschko’s request to wait until November 30, 2013 to issue a full statement regarding his future in the ring. There is every indication that Klitschko will fight again, hoping for an early Spring bout in March or April, against Stiverne- his mandatory challenger. K2 Promotions managing director Tom Loeffler acknowledged Vitali’s statement and agreed that this is where Vitali stands at the moment. Stiverne’s promoter, Camille Estephan of Eye of the Tiger Promotions, took the mic and accepted this timetable.

    From what I understand, Nov. 30th is the date Vitali asked for to confirm that he is able to fight his mandatory fight with Stiverne. In other words, this must be according to how well his injury has healed. Vitali will knock Stiverne out. Vitali knows Stiverne, has seen his fights and is not concerned about knocking Stiverne out. I also read that Stiverne was late to the convention, but that Stiverne and his promoter agreed. There will be a fight in early spring, and it appears to be OK with Stiverne and his promoter..........

    Isn't he running a presidential campaign right now? I think that maybe, just maybe, fighting Stiverne is the last thing on his mind right now...

    As for why the WBC doesn't strip him??? A mystery to all of us

    Because Vitali as champ brings in more in sanction fees than any other fighter could come close to making.

    from what i heard charr and stivernes manager got into a huge heated argument over the last day or 2 at the conference, aparently they had to be separated by a 3rd party before it got physical....woner what it was all about......wish i could read more about it somwhere...



    edit: stiverne is no longer with king, he is soley with estephan now....there was talks of don king trying to put a fight together for stiverne but estephane has stated don king no longer has any pull
