    "Today, the Klitschko brothers dominate because they have no worthy opponents. Chisora slapped Vitali. How can you do that to the champion? If I was there, I would have hit him, but Vitali is too honorable for that. It would be good to see a fight between Haye and Klitschko. I do not [put my stock] in the ratings. Haye should be a contender to Klitschko, because he knocked Chisora out," Lewis said.

    Telling it like a Real ATG. :hat

    Lennox Lewis is right.

    And Vitali said he will fight the winner Haye vs. Chisora.


    IMO Vitali should never mentioned Haye again after Wlad won. But Vitali did and now he should stay behind his words and fight David Haye.

    Wlad is dominating because he has no worthy opponents..... except he already handled without too many problems the guy Lewis thinks Vitali needs to fight lol. If Hayes not a worthy challenger (which must be the case, Wlads only dominating because there are none) then what difference does it make?

    So, bull**** opinions aside (that wlad is only dominating because of unworthy opponents), I agree that Vitali should fight Haye if hes going to continue fighting. If not, it really does look bad on Vitali. If he decides to quit I would applaud that as its time, hes no longer what he was and hes ancient in boxing terms.

    But if hes going to hold on the his belt, and keep fighting, he should fight Haye.

    Yes. I agree.

    Much better to fight all comers and top ranked fighters like Charr, Shannon Briggs, and Sosnowski did to get their shot!

    Because we all know losing to Wlad means an auto loss to Vitali and vice versa.

    Is there any reason to think the fight won't happen. We all know how greedy Bernd Bönte, I have no doubt that the fight will be announced in the coming months.

    He didnt beat a dude. He beat the dude that dragged Vitali into the deep waters. Two superstars fight common opponents so the fans can compare the fights, and help set up a megafight. Its just supposed to be made, period.

    Vitali cannot possibly fight another no name like Charr. He has to take this fight or risk being a figure of ridicule.

    Lewis won the fight and was old, no need to rematch. How can you morons compare that to Vitali not even giving Haye a chance in the first place?

    Vitali has tried to make the fight in the past and Haye was not so interested...now when Vitali has a foot out the door he expects Vitali to cater to him and do him a favor and give him a pay day

    Vitali is in his 40's he doesnt need to do the run around like Haye put the two of them through for the last few yrs...whats to say Vitali doesnt ask Haye to fight him and then Haye does his usual routine and doesnt get in the ring and drags it out

    my opinion is that Haye had his chance, Vitali was more than willing and now he wants to retire

    Vitali is in his 40's has beaten all comers after a long layoff and is at a logical point to retire, he has been a 3 time beltholder 1 time Ring champ, and has made plenty of money with his health intact and is able to pursue further things in life

    Haye should go after Povetkin or Adamek or maybe even a Wlad rematch
