    Never said his style will change, he will remain the type of fighter that keeps going forward no matter who he fights. However, he did show some very good improvements since the loss to Wladimir and that can't be denied. He's also not as slow as many people claim he is, he actually has decent speed and can throw combinations when close.

    About Vitali's ability to pull back I really don't know how healthy his back is, he relies on moving backwards a lot in his fight but after 4 years off with career threatening back and leg injuries I don't think he will be able to apply them as he used to.

    In training you're in a far more relaxed position than in the ring, that's where it all matters and where he needs to show those injuries won't harm his performance. He passed the training test with shining colors alright, now it's time to see if his injuries will affect him during the fight. As I said it's in the ring where the real test is, you can look like superman in training then perform totally different.

    You realize injuries can heal given time? Right? I do not think the injuries are going to be a problem. The guy just went through a good camp with no injuries. If they do happen you will hear no excuses from me Vitali has had plenty of time to heal.

    With the problems in Peter's camp that we now know about I see Vitali winning by KO early in the fight. If Peter is fat at the weigh in instead of being Danny Williams Part II it will be Kirk Johnson Part II.
