    With the many threads out here now about no opponents left, the brothers looking for scrapmetal as opponents like Dimi and Chisora (even freakin' Mormeck was opted), Vitali fighting the GAOAT (Greatest Asthmatic Of All Time) and the real contenders having a running competition with eachother it looks to me the K brothers are now the most ducked/avoided boxers in the world.

    Certainly now the concensus "most avoided fighters" have actually signed for a rematch.

    It does seem as though the guys who should be calling for a fight are just going to sit about waiting for them to either retire or lose due to age.Haye and Povetkin should be ashamed.

    It is a fact that a lot of guys have been ducking wlad, say what u want about him he cant get people to fight for the ring championship. That doesnt happen often in history.

    Teke Oruh called them out! Klitschkos should stop ducking African Prince or vacate titles! They can run but they cant hide.

    I think its funny when these fighters talk and they say the division is wide open but yet they wont step up and take a klitschko fight! David tua would rather go waste another 6 months on monte barret than take a shot at the hw championship! What is he fighting for?

    C'mon, fighting Wlad is a career high payday for most of today's HW, if they don't fight him, it's proof enough that they really are affraid of him. I can understand why people avoid fighting PW, not because he's dangerous but because fighting him earns ****!!

    He saw a great chin in Peter destroyed big time, and has his own chin cracked last fight, the ****er is affraid...
    Fighting Wlad makes him remember fighting Lewis except he will get KO'd this time...

    :good

    Here's a thought... How 'bout Wlad vs Nonito on a 220lbs catchweight. :think
    All Donaire has to do is go on a " Toney Burger Diet™ ", and we have a fight on our hands! :bbb

    Noni will make it to about 180 and fight Manny Siaca, then claim Klitschko ducked him at CW and nobody wants to fight him.

    The truth is that KlitschKO have really hard time finding worthy opponents willing to fight them. No one wants to get beaten badly for 30 minutes and then KOed.

    No. True K2 promotions is very hard to negotiate with but they are not the most avoided boxers today.

    I'd say they're not just the most avoided boxers today, they're two of the most avoided boxers of all time. I don't remember the last time a heavyweight champion had to issue challenges to try to get opponents. Who in his right mind would turn down a career-high payday AND the most prestigious belt in boxing? Even Tyson had an easier time getting opponents.
