I hear that Vitali's next opponent will be a tough contender with a legit shot to win

    Despite all the bad blood if Haye beats Valuev he'll end up getting a fight with one of the Klit sisters sooner or later because it just makes business sense. But for now you can hardly blame the Klitschko's for the lack of decent fights out there.

    Once Wlad recovers he'll take on Chambers and Povetkin in a short period of time, but that leaves no-one but Wlads scraps for Vitali like Tony Thompson.

    :patsch

    How embarrassing of you to actually compare the former undisputed champion Joe Louis' comp/resume to Vitali's? That's disgraceful. Utterly disgraceful. Holmes comp is still easily superior to Vitali's - however he seemingly avoided some fighters and never unified the titles. However, 48 in a row while having the 2nd most title defenses. And of course not being like the Quitter Vit Klit.

    Larry fought some seriously dreadful opponents, you can't deny that. So did Joe and that's why he fought the bum of the month club.

    I wish Vitali or Wlad would do a "bum of the month club".... because that would mean heavyweight title fights twice a month!

    I do think with the relative ease in which they have been beating opponents, fighting more often should not be a problem. Without credible challengers, Klitschkos will need to rack up defenses to reach greatness through numbers and longevity. They can do it to.

    I love how Arreolla was the divison savior before the fight and after he is a nobody. Makes no sense. Same thing happened in every other klitschko fight the guy is a machine before and afterwards he is a chump.

    I think part of the problem is that Vitali came out of retirement. He knocked off Peter, Gomez & Arreola who were some of the better opposition available for Wladimir to build a better legacy.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm a Vitali fan too, but having 2 Heavyweight Champions splits the talent pool in two.

    I'm all for them making history as the first brothers to hold portions of the title, but at the same time but eventually Vitali has to retire and let Wladimir finish what he started.

    I still think there are a few good fights to be made with up & coming young fighters like Povetkin, Chambers, Boytsov, Solis, etc. Just as we have some of the old gaurd still around such as Tua, Briggs, Ruiz, Rahman, Toney, etc.

    It doesn't automatically disqualify an opponent if they lose to 1 brother either, but it does take some of the excitement out of the match knowing 1 bro already KO'd the guy.

    .............and then there's a winner of Valuev vs. Haye, that could become interesting regardless of who wins.
