    My grandfather whipped Texx Cobb, this is a fact. Said he had small feet, not unlike a woman.

    If Vitali announces anything at this convention it should be either that he has set date to take his mandatory defence against Stiverne or that he is going to retire. If he fights anyone but Stiverne then he should be stripped of his title. Stiverne has earned his shot at the title and Vitali has been a massive dick by pissing him around.

    It has to do with Stiverne's promoter Don King, who stood in the way of many potential Klitschko fights in the past (he wouldn't let his titleholders like Ruiz or Valuev unify with the Klitschkos).

    I think Vitali will have his farewell fight against Stiverne in Germany, Ukraine or the USA early in the new year.

    You cant just blame Don King. Yes, King is a scumbag and can be very difficult to work with, but the Klitschko's hardly have a great reputation for being easy to work with either - slave contracts and all that - and it takes two to tango. Plus, Vitali is the one who three times delayed accepting the purse bid for his mandatory defense then got the WBC to suspend it until 2014, it's fair to say that he's been a dick to Stiverne, and the WBC bumped Adamek over Stiverne back in 2011 despite Stiverne having won a heavyweight eliminator so they've not really treated him fairly either.

    Byrd didn't KD Vitali. Torn rotator cuff injury. How many sissy's come back to dominate the HW division to secure the WBC HW championship after a four year lay off? Vitali has never been down in his pro boxing career. Where is Chris Byrd today?

    Ali sure has hit the canvas. Little Henry Cooper walloped Ali so bad he sent him sprawling throught the ropes on ***** street while they gave him a lot of extra time and smelling salts to recover. Can you imagine the outrage if Vitali was ever knocked down, given extra time and smelling salts to recover?

    Ever see Frazier put down Ali in their first fight?

    If you gonna' label a fighter that is not "Iron Cinned" pick one who has actually been KO'd or even knocked down :good :lol:
