    While i agree he is intimidating, and i think he will win, im sure if he lets peters get going he may be dropped or even stopped, the long lay off must surely have an effect dont you think?

    Also what will it say if vits KOs peters about the state of the HW divison,he what ever people say is one of the top 3 men, so im torn i always like the brothers, but can see him winning is not good for the scene in a way, better if peters wins and proves he can fight

    This factor is what separates the two brothers...Vitali has a serious mean streak...if you **** him off, you are in serious trouble!!

    Vitali was always known for that, this is why he always had more fans than Wladimir I think. Personally I'm a fan of both but Vitali is the man who got me back to watch boxing when I took time off after Lewis/Tyson. His performance against Lewis was something to remember and all the discussions after it.

    I remember after that fight at work on Monday people that did not even follow Boxing were talking about it. It was an exciting fight and in my opinion was the last really exciting fight in the Heavyweight Division. I hope tomorrow's fight is the same way the Heavyweight Division is due for an exciting fight.

    Yeah, I remember the discussions VERY well, that fight right there is what got me to find ESB and back to watching boxing full-time. After Tyson lost to Lewis I just had no desire to continue watching to be honest but man that fight was so awesome I couldn't help but come back and now I'm stuck once again. Vitali just gave it his all and his size/attitude is what got many fans to DEMAND a rematch. Then came the Kirk Johnson fight which everyone I knew was looking forward to and most of those I know are casual fans who kept asking "When will Lewis give him a rematch?". Awesome days.

    Me too, but I would admit that Lewis was smart enough to admit he's too old to get in a fight like that again as he had no desire anymore.

    This place has been crazy enough already, it's going to be insane come the fight tomorrow...guaren-damn-tred that the server crashes at least once.

    If Vitali wins the "Vitali is an ATG" threads will be plastered about, if Peter wins it'll be "Vitali sucks!" by the dozen.

    As far as I know Vittili could not take a warm up fight and remain "spare" Champ, there fore the cut of the purse would be different and he could not force Peters to fight him for a year more...

    Vitali is a natural fighter. Wlad is a natural athlete who fights.

    I've always said this is one of the most intimidating staredowns I've ever seen. Vitali and Wlad have such blank faces when they stare at you. There is no fear, no uncertainty in their eyes ever.

    No reason why Vitali would fear most of his opponents. Wasn't he like a multi time world heavyweight champion kick boxer before? Outside the ring he'd probably finish most of the guys he's faced with one kick to the head.
