Ok, Haye does not want to fight Vitali or Wlad, right now or mabye never, who knows. At the moment we know he does not want this fight. Povetkin does not want to fight Wald after us (the fans) waiting for 2 years. Valuev does not want to fight Vitali, (Info on this) He was offered 1.5 M then 2 M. 1-1.5 M is the payday for him when he had the belt, he wants WHAT to fight without the belt? Peter steps up to fight Wlad, think Peter is KO'D within 6-7 rounds, but, unlike others listed above Peters will get in the ring at least. My question to you, if the top fighters below the champs (including 1 champ Haye) will not get into the ring with you, what do you do? Who do you fight? Should these fighters that are running not see there rankings go WAY DOWN! I see this as being bad for boxing, a definite black mark. What do you think about this? I would just like your honest thoughts on this and boxing. :huh
If Valeuv and King won't accept, Vitali should take Adamek, or Briggs, I guess. Wlad is merely taking Peter, who is the next in ranking line after Povetkin was swept aside by governing bodies. So that you can't question. With the only good (Haye) and decent (Valuev and Povetkin) opponents refusing to fight, or to accept decent offers, there is not much left for them to pick from.
Adamek should definetly get a title shot against one of the brothers soon because he deserves it and it could be a bit more competitive than the klitschkos recent fights.
I think the IBF should have another 4 man tournament... Or EIGHT.... Leave the top 3 out of it since Peter is the opponent and Adamek could be a future opponent... So... Chagaev #6 Boytsov #4 Dimitrenko #8 Mormeck #9 If 8 Jonathan Banks #10 Chris Arreola #11 Solis #13 Derrick Rossy #15
He should try to fight the winner of Adamek/Grant. If not available former champs Briggs, Holyfield or Toney would be marketable if the fight takes in the States. As for the WBC rankings, they are worthless, nowadays, any good promoter can MAKE $$$ his non ranked fighter enter the top 12 within an eye blink...
Vitaliy KlitschKO - Kolya Valuev, if he/Don(ald Duck) King does not agree, Briggs Wladimir KlitschKO - Smauel Peter, next year Adamek in case he wins against Grant.
So many seem to want Vitali to fight Briggs or Toney. If Vitali were to fight them they would get knocked out quickly, then the haters would cut Klitschkos down for taking easy fights. Hell, Klitschkos are fighting the best top ten fighters out there. Haye is is hiding after his bout with diarrhea of the mouth! Povetkin is in hiding. They know how good Vitali and Vlad really are, unlike their fans.
Only losers who go by names and have no clue about where these two hasbeens are actually ranked. I would lose plenty of respect for Vitali if he takes either of them immediatly after Sosnowski.
