    On another well known page, Klitschko said, that Maskaev and Peter got no chin and that he steps in at Feb 2nd, if one of the two pulls out.
    I wonder who steps in for him?:D

    He feels to be in great shape and ready. But he will wait for the outcome of Peter-Maskaev, if he makes a tuneup or not....

    Yeah, great shape, that's what we always get told. Klitschko pulled out of his last 16 fights or so, so he shouldn't be talking like that about Maskaev and Peter. At least he got a good chin tho...

    retire vitali, outside of your nuthuggers no one cares anymore.

    he'll only complicate the HW division further.

    :good

    If he really wants to make a comeback, he should fight a mandatory (Tony Thompson), so that unification fights can be made.

    the older klitschko brother should shut up. he talks trash all the time but see the facts: he did not fight for years and at some point he does want to retire, at another point he wants a tune-up, then he wants the champ and now he is waiting what will happen when peter and oleg are fighting for the title that is worth the **** that the cows ****. moreover he wants to rematch lennox. vitali is so pumped up with steriods that he cant see the reality.

    Vitali says they both have weak chins, but would rather fight Maskaev. Vitali is pissed off as hell that Maskaev has been claiming he knocked Vitali out as an amatuer .

    I use to like Vitali, but all he does now is make the heavyweight division worse than it already is. Its not 2004 anymore, you have been out of the ring for almost 3 years doing the same thing Charlie Zelenoff does, claiming your going to fight and backing out at the last minute for whatever reason.

    I know that Vitali has no belt. But I want a IBF/WBO/WBA-unification, and that's impossible if the mandatories insist on their title shot.

    If anyone has the right to say Peter has no chin, its Vitali, who has never been knocked down.

    And I think his plan to take a tuneup, but also wait til the Peter Oleg fight must mean that he'll train for, and schedule his tuneup to where its very shortly after the Peter Oleg fight, so if one pulls out, Vitali can be already trained and ready. I asume that's what he means, so I would expect that his tuneup will be either the following week, or the week after that.

    Even though he has suffered two injuries, (knee tear and herniated disc, that's the only two injuries he's had) once he's healed and gets the rust knocked off, I think he'll still be the most dominant heavyweight out there. I hope he does fight someone like Thompson and then this builds up a mega fight between Vitlai and Oleg (after Oleg beats Peter, which is likely), cause there seems to be a bit of a disagreement between how their amateur fight ended. That'd make for a good WBC title fight, but also a rematch. That fight would be huge in Europe.

    He was knocked out as a kickboxer once by Pele, but anyone can be KOed by a kick. He has got a great chin though.
