    How do you think things rattle out. Does Wlad unify? does Peter somehow become a multi defense titleist? Does Wilder ever grab the WBC title?

    Shannon Briggs becomes relevant again

    I don't know, I think he finds his Vitali like beating somewhere. Whether that is by Wlad or someone else I have no idea.

    Wlad unifies is my guess.

    Wlad unifies the 4th belt. Fits in the wbc mandatories along with his other Mandos.

    Wlad would unity all the titles and KO Wilder in 2015. Although Wilder's team would probably wait and don't push him for ttitle shot at that point. In that case Wlad would lose to Tyson Fury and Wilder would win vacant WBC belt after Fury relinquished all his belts.

    Sam Peter might make a few title defenses. Many others who lost to him might get a title shot vs someone else.

    Heck, Charr, Vitali's last opponent is one of the world champions now.

    The biggest question would seem to be how soon would Don King look to put Peter back in with Wlad? I don't see King being overly eager to lose his titleist . And at what point would an Eddie Chambers or someone of the like knock off Peter, who could be outboxed if he didn't land a big shot.
