If Holyfield beats Iggy, do you think he will want a unification match? Perhaps the winner of Peter/Maskaev?
Willing maybe, but how can he if Vitaly is guaranteed a title shot at the winner of Peter/Maskaev and WBC International HWT Champion Oliver McCall ( or Juan Carlos Gomez) has also been promised a chance at the major title by Jose Suleiman himself? Wlad will be waiting for the four men tournement winner so that leaves Holy to take Iggy's place in facing Chagaev in a WBA/WBO unification that was to happen and didn't due to Ruslan's injurie.
i feel that a promoter has to make a unification fight i mean it's big big business if you do and it will make your fighters who havnt or wont get a title a shot at contenders. if chaga and iggy did unify then don king would have to unify to make up for loss of money. but it's an exiting time for the heavies all champions are busy and are involved where as a few years before they were just holding on to the thing that makes them famous now a fresh pool of talent is in. think about it in the early 2000 the heavies were byrd, lewis, vitali, tua, kirk, rahman,ruiz, brewster and holy now most of those guys are now at the end of there careers can take them. so a new breed of fighters have to take over (got to thats how it works out) and we have been saying it's such a weak division for soooooo long that guys who are natural cruisers,amatuers ex champions all want to take the prize.not like before when it was very stale. look at the new fighters most of them are smaller fitter beings before we were having old fat guys who thought brilliant no running to me if there is no wieght restictions.
