    Meh, nobody. Especially not Arreola.

    No one. He will retire before someone KO's vitali (and I dont mean that as in he will retire before he fights a certain guy)

    Cant see anyone around now doing it, maybe someone will come out of nowhere and be capable but I doubt it.

    Vitali is 38. I would say 2-3 more fights at the MOST. If he can get the winner of Haye Valuev in the near future, I think he will stay active, if not, I think he will hang them up. IMO he wants 1 more BIG fight

    I was suprised to see Vitali stay fighting with noone else available but an Arreola.

    But I think he's hoping, as Chef confirmed, one more big fight. And Vitali, fresh from of a thrashing of Arreola, against the winner of Haye/Valuev (Haye) would be that last big fight he's looking for, before bowing out on top.


    But to answer the question, who has the best chance (you have to name someone), I say David Haye, by quite a margin. He's the only one with power and speed with which to be even remotely effective against Vitali.

    agreed. the ONLY way someone is going to knock out vitali is with sneaky power: someone who is quick enough to catch him when he's not on his guard. even then, it's a pretty ****ing small chance

    Only 1 small/minor problem they will never fight...

    I agree. The only guy with even a slight chance IMO would be Haye. But with how the WBA has the "circle jerk" of fights over and over, I dont see Vitali waiting 2 years(Chagaev #1, Ruiz mand, Valuev for rematch) to get the chance if Haye wins.
