    Haters are always going to hate, even when presented with the facts.

    Vitali could NOT have fought Boytsov, because they have the same trainer. How would that have worked? Training with Boytsov Monday, Wednesday, & Friday, while training Vitali Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, & Sunday? LOL.

    But just look at the OP's title "Vitali Could of Fought Boytsov. Instead He Choose Sosnowski".
    That makes it sound like Boytsov wanted the fight, but Vitali went elsewhere. Absolutely NOT the case.

    I would have loved to see Vitali - Valuev, but King priced it out. So Vitali was left to find someone else.
    There's no one in the Top 10-15 available who:

    - isn't tied up with another fight
    - doesn't have a recent loss
    - hasn't priced themselves out

    So no, Sosnowski isn't the dream opponent, but he's the best for the current situation.
    At least the guy always comes into his fights in shape. You can't deny that.

    Boytsov is too green, don't think Universum would have put him with Ks. Yeah, he's probably better and more deserving, but so are bunch of others (e.g., Pianeta who had a draw with sosnowski).

    They are also young, way too young, and I'm sure their management is not crazy to send them to VK.

    Have you ever heard of them trying to get a shot? No...
    You are probably making up stories to make a fighter you don't like look bad.

    Ah well, with plenty of time on hand...

    There are three types of contenders.
    1. Povetkin. deserving, dangerous
    2. Chambers . deserving, no-hoper
    3. the rest. NONE of whom is deserving. Valouev, Toney, Dimitrenko, Boytsov, Tua, Solis, Chagaev...

    Sosnowski has little talent but at least he's always in shape and has beaten shopworn Danny Williams and Vidoz to win the European title. He has no shot but he's no fraud like Carl Davis Drumond or Owen Beck.

    :deal Basically. Give the hard worker a try. I see that either Sosnowski will be totally overwhelmed and stopped early or he will fight his heart out and try to be busy against Vitally. I can guarantee you that he will not be as inactive as Thompson or Peter were. Since expectations are so low, I have a feeling Sosnowski will likely surpass them.
