    Seriously , what's he gonna do ? He'll never unify all the belts because he won't fight his brother anyway so why bother ?...
    Or maybe he doesn't gives a ****?...maybe he and wlad are just satisfied , owning the hw division (like the williams sisters were at one point in tennis several years ago).

    or maybe , just maybe....Vitali feels that some **** is gonna hit the fan...maybe he's ready to come back (just in case his brother gets owned) , to save the day just like he did when Corrie Sanders tkoed wlad back in 2003...

    of course all of this is just speculation , nothing more...but i'm really wondering though.

    this is a stupid question. If someone says "here is a fight for a championship that you have a decent chance of 1. winning and 2. getting a huge sum of money" if you can make it in healthy why wouldn't you do it? Its a stupid question.

    It is no secret that they've wanted to hold titles at the same time... this is no secret. Why are you confused?

    He wants to take Peter out of the equation in case he knocks out his brother, simple as that.

    Why not? Why does any fighter come back? Why do lower level boxers even box?

    Exactly right. Fighters are will be fighters. They fight. And they almost always come back.

    Why would you really believe that? It's not like Wladimir hasn't already beaten Peter....................

    I swear, there's absolutely no way any of you haters really believe the **** you're trying to sell. No one can be that naive & stupid at the same time...................

    Four reasons:

    1. Money, title fights usually bring $$$

    2. Add to his legacy

    3. To make history as the only 2 brothers to hold portions of the HW title at the same time

    4. He'll be in position to unify in the unlikely event his brother loses.

    All valid reasons and there's nothing wrong with that.

    Wladimir is already half way to unifying and he probably feels he can beat the other 2 guys pretty easily.

    Peter is the only danger to Wlad, yeah he beat him before but it was a long panic attack of a fight for Wlad and with a referee in the rematch who might not be as tolerant to Wlads holding tactics it could be a bumpy night for him. Vitali obviously wants to protect him by removing Peter from the equation, the same way he disposed of Purrity and Sanders so that Wlad wouldnt have to face them again!

    Wladimir can box for himself. He does not need his older brother to do the job. Wladimir is a man of 31 years and goes his own way.

    The facts are that instead of facing Purrity or Sanders again to avenge his losses his brother knocked them out of the equation, as Wlad did with Byrd for Vitali so that he wouldnt risk having to quit again.

    That was in the past. Now Wladimir rematches Brewster and he stands for his own career. Wlad himself will do the job he has to do.
