Vitali's got nothing left to prove. If he fights Haye it's a little bonus to his legacy, if not so be it. Haye and Chisora are clearly top 10 for those without an agenda.
If Chisora beats Haye, it'll be Wlad fighting DelBoy not Vitali. Vitali will likley fight Chambers instead or maybe Mitchell if he ready by December.:think
Sooner or later Vitali will have his 'Lewis moment' in the ring. He'll notice he can't hang around with the younger, fresher and more hungry opponents much longer. I actually thought he realized that during 2-3 of those rounds vs Chisora when Vitali looked really old and slow. Then they said he had an injured shoulder. Taking that explanation with a grain of salt really.
Hugely overrated fighter, poor technical ability, abysmal footwork and no notable wins on his record. He'll be remembered as a Lewis opponent and someone who quit against Chris Byrd. He will be remembered by some. He won't be missed by anyone.
The guy was out for 4 years because of injury came back and without a tuneup fought Peter and made him quit on his stool and got his old belt back. He is 9-0 in his comeback and has lost very few rounds. He has an Iron Chin and is very awkward and hard to hit. He has had a very good career and made no telling how many more millions in his comeback. I would love to see him fight Mitchell in September but there is no way Golden Boy allows him to do so. Vitali is an exciting fighter and the Division will be worse off when he is gone. A Mitchell fight in Staples Center in September would be a great final event.
Same, best fight that can be made in the HW division. Find out who is 2nd best HW in the world right now. Sorry but it's due to Vitali looking older and slower that makes this such an interesting fight, for me Haye wins but it can go either way.
That's because Haye "retired" and won't be in any ratings until he returns. And do you think would beat him outside the Klitschkos? Chambers? Sasha? Adamek? Helenius? lolololololololololol
Povetkin beats him easily. Adamek & Chambers are light years ahead of Haye in technical ability and both have better resumes. Helenius, in good health, not he one armed version we saw against Chisora... would be 50/50. Depends on how much running Haye does in the fight and where the judges are from. The guy has done zip at HW and you Brits have this delusion that Haye is some master boxer with lightening speed and Tysonesqe power. It would be funny if you weren't so dead set on believing it. Saying it over and over won't make it true. The guy is a fraud who has already been exposed.
