    Guys like Carl Davis Drummond, Matt Skelton and 46 year old Holyfield are getting title shots. Arreola is a new contender and maybe he could wait longer, but it's not a joke if he gets a title shot.

    Povetkin will get his shot eventually.

    Haye chose Vitali.

    Haye was lineal, ring magazine champ and had 3 belts at cruiser so he was undisputed champ.

    Haye would easily beat Arreola, however Arreola may lucky punch Wlad and Ko him, becoming world champ, Haye cannot beat the big man so he wont be its not fair!

    Of course you don't follow the sport very well. I never said that Povetkin was scared of Wlad. He simply got injured and had to pull out of their fight. Povetkin's team stated directly before Wlad fought Rahman that they were going to take their time, and recover completely before fighting again. They even mentioned the possibility of fighting a tune-up first. If you followed the sport more closely, then you would know common knowledge such as this... however, I am not going to fetch info for you just because you aren't up to date. Wlad isn't going to sit around and wait on Povetkin to be ready, when he can stay busy cleaning out the division. Wlad actually fulfilled his mandatory by fighting Rahman (because he was the next highest rated boxer available to fight), giving him 9 months to fight his next mandatory, which is going to be Povetkin. So... you are complaining that Wlad is squeezing in a fight against another undefeated top contender in between now and 9 months, when he fights Povetkin? Obviously you aren't a real boxing fan... just another member of the "Hate Squad".

    I believe it's more like Vitali chose Haye. :deal Vitali has the belt, not Herbie Haye.

    Look... Wlad is just as much an Undispuated Champ as Haye was. Just because the Ring mag screwed up and didn't place Wlad in the top 3 of Ring mag after beating Peter, before he beat the #1 ranked Chris Byrd, doesn't mean that he isn't the true Champ. The actual definition of being undisputed is having the WBC, WBA, and IBF titles. However, I never held much into that these days, because winning all of the titles is too time consuming, and almost pointless due to the fact that half of the champs in each division aren't Champion material. I do believe that Haye was the man at Cruisweight... however if people are going to hate on Wlad, and act like Haye was the man when he didn't hold all of the belts... then I will play right along with them and point out the flaws in their logic. All of the belts are ******ed, even the ring belt. The people decide who is the real champ, and everyone in the world knows that Wlad is the true Champ of the heavyweight division. The Champion makes the belt, the belt doesn't make the Champion.
