    Valuev's camp already said that he was going to return in May.

    Vitali made 15 million for beating Solis! He has lost maybe one or two rounds since his comeback. If his body holds up well, and he keeps winning this easy, it will be hard for him to retire.

    I would like to see Vitali KO Haye or Adamek, give Byrd a very quick re-match, then go for Povetkin to finish out his career.

    Of Course, if Lenny wants to come out and play for the re-match he promised the press, even better :)

    see the truth is that as much as vitali has declined, imo, he is still good enough to greatly improve his standing upon retirement.

    Think it will be a big loss when Vitali is gone. Always in shape and shows up to fight.

    If/when he decides to hang 'em up, it will be a terrible loss to the HW division.

    This is a man who took over the reigns straight after Lewis retired as the Man at HW. Then he is sidelined for nearly 4 yrs due to injuries, only to come back at whip the guy holding his WBC belt -- with no tune up fight -- and has destroyed every one of his opponents ever since.

    VK, we want you to stick around for as long as you possibly can. The division needs you. (as if he'll ever read this post). :-(

    Understandable - the guy´s 40.

    Hope that he faces Povetkin before retirement days

    Easy knockout, but not as easy as Solis' was! LOL! Solis is a sore loser, a legend in his own mind!

    Valuev, Adamek, Chegaev, and Boytsov in my opinion. Each bring a little additional flavor to Vitali's resume, and shouldn't be too hard for him to beat.

    I want Wladimir, specifically, to fight Haye, though.

    Id love that fight and Vitali would destroy him and stop him. Valuev isnt hard to find and Vitali would land on him with enough regularity to get a stoppage late.

    It would be an interesting fight and on top of that Vitali would be the first to stop him and really punish him.

    His conduct was hard to read. There are no doubt dozens of incidents that filth has gotten away with, some probably far more reprehensible. Oner seems like the type who in addition cries ethnic discrimination when anyone reports/confrons him on his repulsive conduct. The very idea of that guy having any real power or influence in this sport is stomach turning.

    I tried to get that sponge bob..... the damn thing has its own security:lol:

    Solis is done as far as Vitali is considered. If solis' knee is as bad as they say (ill give them the benefit of the doubt) ..IMO, No way Solis will be back before Vitali retires
