Wladimir is fighting a guy that is 14-0 while Vitali is fighting a guy that is 17-0 and you Klit fans STiLL are saying that they fight the best out there? In the last year, Vitali has fought Sosnowski, old a$$ Briggs and now novice Solis. Yet we never hear that he is handpicking his opponents. Wladimir has chosen to fight Chisora instead of Haye and you idiots trying to say that Chisora deserves a shot. Hahahahahaha. I can't wait to see who Adamek fights next, it'll probably be a guy who has a total of 8 fights, just so Adamek, who cherrypicks opponents too, can keep his streak going. Haye is going to fight Chagaev next and you idiots are now trying to say that Haye will lose to him too? Haye will KO him in 4-5 rounds, which is something Wladimir couldn't do, then Solis will lose a boring decision while Chisora will actually come to fight for about 3 rounds before doing something stupid like getting DQed. And yet you guys will STILL say that Haye doesn't belong in the same ring as the Klitshkos. Hahhhahshahah.
As best I can tell, both the K bros have tried to get it on with the top ranked opponents. Briggs was a fillin after Valuev was injured, Chisora was the only ranked contender willing to give it a shot, and yes, Adamek v Maddalone was a joke, but Maddalone KO1 Harrison EARLY. As for Haye v Wlad or Haye v Vitali, that's entirely in Hayes court. Wlad is open July 2, and so is Haye. I do think Haye beats Chagaev or Meehan, but not by stoppage. Either way, he could do so early in March or early in April and be ready for Wlad by July. A win win situation until the bell rings vs Wlad. I am a Klitschko fan and have been since 96/97, so of course I like him in that fight. But whatever the outcome, the best man will win. But you gotta understand that for the most part, the Bros honor their word, and if that means Wlad honors his agreement with Chisora so be it. The man stepped up when NOONE else would, and you gotta credit DC for that. And he does have that punchers chance. Wlads defense is penetrable and if DC can get in there, land several bombs, he could be the next HWCoTW. We'll see in April. As for the Bros fighting handpicked opponents, madatories are mandatories, and I don't see Haye letting Peter or Rahman or Briggs step in for his failed negotiations, but rather Audley harrison, who either of those prementioned guys takes out in the first minute of their fight. Show me ONE hitter that Haye has fought at any weight. Just one. And Mormeck dont count, because he's an accumulation fighter. Show me one guy with one punch power such as Briggs, Peter or Rahman or Mercer or Sanders that Haye has fought at ANY weight class, pros or ams. There are NONE, because he is a cherrypicker to the fullest, and a chicken in the most literal sense of the term.:hi:
I'm no fan of either Klitchko, but collectively they've cleaned out the Heavyweight division. Other than Haye and Povetkin (who both pulled out of fighting the Klitchko's) what other viable opponents are left for either brother to face? Adamek? Adamek is way to small for the K brothers and he will get crushed when he fights one of them. Very silly thread.
they ARE the best out there. They don't fight the best out there cause that would mean fighting each other. They fight the rest.
Was Sosnowski a mandatory? Briggs? Peter? Chisora? And if they made better contracts that didn't involve fighting their brother then maybe guys would fight them
they havent cleaned out anythin. their still fighting bums,thier still predictable,limited,boring and scared fighters. with all thier size and power you think they would have confidence to fight the very best and go for the KOs as soon as thier over matched opponents cant get on the inside. klitschkos can not be criticised by klitshcko fans,apparently thier perfect boxers and perfect people who are always respectful with thier fair and galiant behaviour,shown by thier "perfectly respectable" contracts. and thier brilliant for continued fighting on home turf,and fighting over matched opponents,fat opponents,past it opponents,in experienced opponents with no popularity,opponents with no poor and no skills who cant even come in shape,and thier attempts to fight dangerous opponents before they are experienced enough to be a major threat.
They are amongst the best out there. Don't blame the Klitschkos for the fact the HW division is so ****.
