Vitaly, you can't quite now!

Yeah, if he's able to, then why not? He could fight for another two or three years beating down whatever competition that's left, and if it'll do his legacy some good, then I'd like to see him carry on.

However, it may not be that easy to do if your hunger and love for the sport is dying down. He is 40, after all. And he does have political aspirations - the secret that he was probably referring to in his post-fight interview with SkySports.

 

Vitali should fight Haye and then retire. It looked like he was fighting a child out there tonight. I say fight Haye, retire, and let your younger brother shine.

 

The only heavyweight to make 27 of 27 (T)KOs

 

Vitali needs someone to knock Wlad the **** out again and then he destroys him and then then retires.

I wish the heavyweight division was not so **** but it is

For the record I think if Vitali and Wlad fought Wlad would lose a brother...





And gain a father!

 

His opponent list is just as good as many in the past. I always hear it was a weak era but that is the same old story when you have a dominant champ

 

k lets take a look at this resume.

Solis -Fat, never done anything in the pro's
Briggs -Old/never very good
Sosnowski -Who?
Gomez -Short/fat/nobody
Sam Peter -Fat already exposed
Kevin Johnson -Fat

I could keep going. With this list of oppenents, we've established that Vitali has dominated the most fat mother ****ers ever. Not one ATG, not one person who would even be considered a top 200 HW ATG. It's not his fault of course because there isn't anyone around to fight, but that doesn't make it a great resume.

He's a top 20 ATG HW anyway IMO, because of his dominance and that he's a H2H nightmare, but his resume is not great at all.

 

Solis, Gomez and Adamek are his best wins, but coming out of four years inactivity, and a few surgeries, to beat Samuel Peter that decisively, after NO tuneups.......that ranks up there among his best, as well.

That said, I think we'll see Haye get his chance, next. After that, who knows, but as long as he's dominating like this, why not keep it up?

If he starts to barely pull off wins, or starts taking more punishment, then retire, but not when you are steemrolling everyone as he is now.

 

If Vitali wants to quit I'm cool with it, he's got nothing left to prove.

 

Yea but every win against a good opponent at the age of 40 is worth a lot more than beating the same level of opponent when he was prime. A few more good wins now won't do his ATG ranking much harm :deal

 

True but they won't boost it either.

The guys training ethic is amazing, he could fight until he's 45 and still be undefeated. If their was a solid opponent/challenge out there I'd agree.

Maybe rematch Solis to show the world he can dismantle the guy then call it quits?

 

Sanders 38 years old, flabby, dangerous for a round....
Peter- biggest win ever? Mascaev king of the human knockout
Briggs- "earned" his shot by fighting 5 cans...NONE ranked in the top 50
Hide- a very good cruiserweight
Adamek a very good cruiserweight
Gomez a very good cruiserweight
Norris a very good cruiserweight
Arreola - biggest victory? handing jamile mccline his 10th loss
Kirk Johnson- good win over a guy that was at least there because he earned it
Kevin Johnson - disgraceful... whats kingpins biggest win?
Solis- good win- thats how you deal with a fat ass....get out out and out quickly
Williams- good solid win...williams was dangerous..but failed miserably
Donald (1 win in last 3 fights, now 1 win in last 4)
Sosnowski - hes probably not the toughest guy on his street,,,,talk about a padded record...haha..
sonowski is so good... he lost an 8 round dec to zuri laurence..who had 14 losses in 2008, after he didnt win a round vs vitali, he knocked out a guy with 12 losses...loser of 9 of 11) in 1 round..... then gets knocked out in his next fight...super win the dragon was

 

I love Vitali n will suffer from grave depression when he does retire. I hope he gives us at least three more fights...
