    That statement is valid for his whole career except of the fight against Lewis.

    By the way, James Toney is available to fight. In which fight do you think Vitali will make more money: Kevin "the dangerous" Johnson or James Toney?

    well, great list that is you give as better opponents. All rising stars with atleast 90% chance of beating Vitali...

    Valuev is Don King's property. Wont happen unless you sign to become his ***** for the next 10 years
    Maskaev; An over the hill, chinny, slow, lumbering plodder. Give him 95% chance to beat Vitali..
    Rahman; An over the hill, chinny, slow, low on gas, plodder. Give him 94% chance to beat Vitali..
    Tua; Well, actually David would make a good fight, but you better give him 5 tune-up fights before throwing him in for his last chance for glory. Give him 99% to beat Vitali..
    Toney; As Toney is now slowly nearing his boxing maturity, he deserves a chance to face the much shorter and lesser conditioned opponent. That is offcourse if Toney stays away from the donuts, burgers and the juice. Anyway, I will give Toney a 100% chance to beat Vitali in any pre-fight face-off. Will be smart too, to **** Vitali off. I am afraid James wont find the words that easy after the fight..
    Golota; I think Golota has lost all his rights to a championship fight, dont you agree? he will after all find a way to disappoint 40 million countrymen for atleast the 4th time if he would accidentally give Vitali trouble.
    Povetkin; Was being outboxed by Chambers for 5.49 rounds and looked a mess afterwards. Should not engage with somebody who likes nothing better then a forwardcoming, powerless, short opponent. Fight would be cruel and exciting, but better feed Povetkin to Wlad, who is somewhat scared of people who try to stand on his toes all evening and subsequently will hug Povetkin to death by command of his trainer
    Eddie Chambers; Well, tbh Eddie deserves a chance. He went and got where he is now he hard way. Eddie should we kept faaaaar away from Wlad because Wlad loves people who try to box with him. Eddie would outpoint Valuev by 12 rounds to zero if his stamina holds up. I agree that Eddie is the most deserving for a title-shot.
    Odlianer Solis; If that is the chubby Cuban i saw a few years ago in Germany, then be warned; Talented=Yes. Motivated=yes, as long as motivated means wanting to become rich the easy way (rich=more burgers). Too fat for his health=Yes

    Getting a good match-up in the HW division isnt that easy as you say it is. With both brothers holding belts and Don King in the mix options are limited

    Did you mess up the percentages or is it just sarcasm?

    I got carried away by the thought of Maskaev or Rahman beating the **** out of that bum VK...

    I am aware they actually have a slightly lower chance, but still, far over 90%

    This is a joke, right? You can't honestly believe this. Vitali fears no one. He is an atg, like it or not...he just beat a very dangerous and undefeated fighter in Chris Arreola. I don't see anyone that you mentioned giving Vitali a serious fight. Sorry, dude!!

    OK, Johnson may be not a dangerous opponent for Vitali. But most of the list you provided are either busy right now, faded, or mandatories for Wlad.

    Vitali destroyed the WBC belt holder and the WBC #1 Gomez and WBC #1 Arreola, so the top dogs of that ABC list. Now he goes for #6 and proves he is willing to stay busy before he has to retire. I appreciate that, even if I'm not too excited about this fight.

    I agree, I'd absolutely LOVE Vitali in the ring vs. Valuev, and it's a shame Vitali didn't continue the negotiations, instead picking Arreola. But "ducking"...?

    I think the exact percentage you are looking for is 92.5

    Maybe you just hate him too much, maybe you need to take a **** actually?
    How could Vitaly win a belt without beating Peter ... isn't that justified enough? :lol:
    Then how you can question acheivement of Sanders who knocked out his belowed brother?

    As for achievements of Solis ... what are they?
    Chambers and Povetjkin are interested in fighting Wlad not Vitaly, they have mandatory spots against him.

    You may have only a case against Rahman or Maskaey but seriously .... really Rahman and Maskaev belongs to a great boxers who will shine on Vitaly's record?

    I'm surprised that John Ruiz is not on that list.
