Vitaly Klitschko: Boxing fraud?

The only ones in that list you could truly call clubfighter are The Sauce and Charr. Everyone else was more or less a solid contender at the time Vit faced them.

 

CHEF who does the music for Klitschko youtube channel?? where does he find his music..hes worth every cent

 

its our photographer. Very talented guy

Michael Sterling Eaton is his name....michaelsterlingeaton.com

he picks the songs and such for all the videos when he edits them

I think the videos are great. really gives the feeling of what we are doing, camp, presser, free time or whatever he shoots:good

 

280-10-1 combined opponent record. incredible

 

Two points to ponder:

1. By the time Vitali recovered from his injury Byrd signed with Don King. King has always made it clear he will only allow his fighters to fight the brothers either in mandatory fights only OR if he gets options on the Klitschkos -- which business-wise is a no-no for K2. So your assertion that "Vitali never sought a rematch" is potentially missing the point. Maybe he sought it from a competitive point of view but boxing politics and business-wise it was difficult if not impossible to realize.

2. Didn't Booth admit that Vitali sent them a contract, but they wanted to fight Delboy first because the payday was very good? I remember seeing an interview earlier this year when he admitted that, but I unfortunately don't have a link handy.

 

:deal Boxing options have expiration. Universum exercised option to make Wlad-Byrd fight because Vitali was injured and recovering from surgery. Byrd was free of it all after that and signed with Don King. Clearly, rematching Vitali was not high on DK priorities since another lopsided beating would have hurt Byrd's career.
