    You must have realised by now what the Klitschko's are like with contracts. How many fighters can you name who have had rematches with either of them after losing to them? Chagaev wants a payday and the chance to grab the belts- if and when he loses I guarantee there will be no rematch. With both fighters fighting out of Germany with the benefit of some dodgy officiating, I'd love to see which guy gets the token win on points if it goes to that. I plump for Wlad. Wlad by TKO in the 5th anyway.

    Lol, the IBO does not count. PLease do not lend weight to that PoS. I'm sick of seeing the IBO creep into recognition. 4 is more than enough already.

    Oh, I see what he means now though about if Wlad beats Chagaev he'll be Ring and probably lineal, although I think Vitali would beat Wlad... so lineal won't be agreed by everyone I am sure.

    Even so, Chagaev isn't even the WBA champ is he? infact, I don't even think its worth regognising that PoS either. 3 'champs' in one weight division? **** THE WBA.

    I agree somewhat about the IBO, which is why I said that belt counts for a ½.

    Wlad has done more at HW than Vitali at this point & he has more belts-period.

    Ruslan beat Valuev & Ruiz, both guys that the WBA can't seem to shake free of. Chag is the WBA champ whether they agree or not IMO.

    Lol at the half. The IBO is not actually a traditional belt at all. They just award it in fights where there is the most money to get their name out there. Ring belt for Wlad/Chagaev winner is fair... lineal title probably would not be agreed upon ever as Vitali and Wlad would never fight.
    Wlad has more belts but when you are defending them against shot to **** Rahman, they don't really mean anything. I think Vitali has done about the same as Wlad... just punish a load of fairly decent fighters, except he hasn't got brutally KOed doing it... he is the WBC champion so I think he should be the lineal title holder....

    You see where I am going? Wlad will never be recognized as the lineal champ if Vitali is around.

    True, but Vitali is 38 years old & probably only going to fight a couple more times then retire leaving the WBC for Wlad to win.

    This is why Vitali doesn't want to waste his time with Maskaev, a fight he'll get no credit for winning.

    To be honest I like fightnews.com for rankings, they're right more times than not.

    I've said this before, but this 'Hayelords' term is still amongst the most childish **** I've seen around ESB...which is quite saying something given all the insults between certain members.

    It's the kind of thing a 5-year-old would giggle themselves silly about.

    It certainly isn't for you brits to like, the more you complain the more effective it is
