    They're not siamese twins ffs. It's a different fight and should be treated as such. If Chisora was to somehow pull of a miracle of miracles and beat Wlad twice than he should not be forced to fight Vitali straight after.

    Although he is boring to watch, he conducts himself well, doesn't try and shock to sell tickets, very classy,

    Also good that he wouldn't compare himself to fighters of the past, as this place would have imploded of he said he could beat a prime Gary Mason

    Watched the interview and the Sky guys almost looked like they didn't prepare, some of the questions where awful, can Derek Chisora knock you out :patsch

    I think thats pretty much the entire reason behind Chisora getting the title shot, it gives Wlad a chance to get under Hayes skin on UK TV.

    If Wlad really wanted to get in Haye's face he should have gone to England to fight Chisora

    I can think of about 60,000 reasons to have the fight in Germany instead.

    Wlad seems like a great guy. I was glad to hear him say he wasn't going to fight Jones or Holyfield. He was very respectful to everybody they mentioned with the exception of Haye.


    The bit where he was talking about Haye Valuev was hilarious.

    Thought Wlad came across well, spoke well considering he was giving an interview in what is his 3rd language.

    i dont see the big deal with the reamtch clauses because the klits are the big names in the division anyway and if you beat 1 it would just be natural to fight the other 1 anyway ots where the money would be

    Exactly, Haye et al were complaining about the clause that you have to fight Vitali next but why wouldn't you want a UNIFICATION FIGHT next?

    If you're tied into a contract to fight them you can't make the same demands that you could if you were a free agent, I'd imagine.
