Why are you fans tolerating Wlad fighting a guy with 14 fights?

    Compared to Haye's opponents of late, Chisora is a step up

    It's not Wlads fault theres no compitition, and those who could possibly challenge him are afraid to.
    He's a pro fighter and he's fighting all comers. The guy with 14 fights is the only one willing to step up.
    A better question would be, why do fans tolerate the best fighter in the world avoiding his biggest challengers, and beating up women?

    Wlad spent a better portion of 2 years trying to secure a fight with Haye why should he waste any more time on him.

    Are you that uninformed? Or just a hater?

    Who else is there to fight? I know BoxRec rankings are debatable, but look at the rankings:

    1 Wladimir Klitschko
    2 Vitali Klitschko (not going to fight his own brother)
    3 David Haye (wouldn't take the fight)
    4 Tomasz Adamek (wouldn't take the fight)
    5 Ruslan Chagaev (already lost to Wladimir)
    6 Alexander Povetkin (wouldn't take the fight)
    7 Nikolay Valuev (injured - probably wouldn't take the fight anyway)
    8 Tony Thompson (already lost to Wladimir)
    9 Eddie Chambers (already lost to Wladimir)
    10 Samuel Peter (lost twice to Wlad)
    11 Chris Arreola (not deserving, already lost to Vitali and Adamek)
    12 Alexander Dimitrenko (Lost to Chambers, who lost Big to Wlad, not much appeal here)
    13 Dereck Chisora (accepted fight)

    Because Haye is fighting someone that would lose to Chisora and Vitali is fighting a 38 year old. Also, Adamek is fighting Vinny Maddalone.

    I don't like Wlad, I usually find him to be quite boring. However, I don't see any other options for the guy other than Chisora... It isn't his fault that Haye is such a coward.

    Chisora has a better heavyweight resume than Haye

    Probably better than not fighting at all. A champion who stays busy is always welcome especially one who has fought two absolutely legit contenders the same year. I reckon Wlad would even take a third ring-rated (not quite sure if Peter was Ring' top 10) contender for the december fight but the choices are slim.

    :lol:What the **** are you using the boxrec ratings for?:patsch
    If you use the ratings from the IBF, and WBO, Chisora is not even ranked.
    Bull**** fight against an unranked, inexperienced, and unknown opponent.

    Solis has 16 fights. Povetkin has 19. Haye has 25 (only 4 heavy bouts).

    Not really much of a difference when all is said and done. Nobody is denying Chisora is way inexperienced compared to Wlad, but at this point keep in mind Chisora is ranked 13th on Boxingrec. He's getting up there....he either gets his shot now or he will have to wait a few years...in which time he may lose a fight.

    Same goes for Dimitrenko I think...now is the time to fight Wlad. After this fight, Wlad should have his plate full going after Haye, Adamek, Povetkin, Mormeck, and possibly Tua if he beats Barrett. So neither Chisora nor Dimitrenko are likely to get another chance anytime soon.

    Anyone who condemns Wlad for fighting bums must have their small-brained head up their ass: None of the top vagina-packing HWs will fight him. None. Imbeciles.

    look at larry haolmes resume. he has 4 fights in a row against fighters with less then 18 fights. Leon spinks got title shot before his 10th pro fight. And number of fights means **** these days.
