    The years may finally be catching up with Vitali. He's still very good, but he didn't seem to have the stamina in yesterday's fight he had for example against Arreola and Briggs.

    Should Vitali retire?

    Yes. Considering the injury, he fought very well.

    At least 3 more WBC defenses before VK retires, I hope.

    He aint got nothing left to prove.

    One more farewell fight and say goodbye as a 3 time World Champion.

    No. He didn't look bad at all, he just wasn't quite as fluid in his movements as he'd been in past fights like the Arreola fight.

    Yes, once he heals he'll still have a few fights left where he can still put on a clinic and dominate ANYone out there.

    So why retire just yet? Its not like Chisora as able to take adavatage of a one armed VK.
