    you must be having a ****ing laugh....

    vitali vs lewis was entertaining no doubt, but primarily because lennox came so out of shape, and had no choice but to fight VERY aggressively against vitali in order to hold him off.....

    vitali did NOT pivot, or show great movement against lennox, who was able to tag him, despite being extremely tired and disillusioned in the fight.

    i do agree that they possibly avoided valuev, simply because of the size factor, i cant see any reason why they shouldnt have fought him, it would have been the biggest fight in the division before haye made his move up, particularly in germany.

    I would just like to quote the lyrics from SNV's song "Bless the funk in your trunk" off his latest record, funk double album, "SNV's Funk dat Crunkercut":

    "I got the fake doctor to the left of me and the fake doctor to the right
    I got the fake doctors' women in my big funky bed, you see...aw-aw-aw-all night
    I said...funky funk and bless the funk in your trunk
    I said...funky funk funk funk

    Whooooo! Ain't gonna take that slave contract
    Voidtali and Voidimir ain't got no tact
    A whoa, whoa, whoa
    All they do is act
    whoa, whoa, whoa!

    Fake doctors ain't got no funk
    No, no, no
    But Hayden and Natalia, bless the funk, I say, bless that funk, that crazy funky funk in their trunk! Whoooo!"

    Niko was a threat earlier in his career. He was a lot faster back then. That's why they did everything in their power to avoid him. The Klitschkos aren't the only ones. People make careers avoiding serious challenges. That is just boxing. It is a business.

    Joke that they ducked him, yeah. But even funnier as to the reasons the jokers give for it.

    Size?

    GTFOH.

    Niether brother has ever had trouble with guys their own size or bigger. Kirk Johnson is what 6'6 280, Jameel MCline has to go about the same. Briggs is no midget. Gomez is about 6'4.

    Yeah, Valuev is the largest HW champ in history, but both brothers have fought guys comparable in size/skill/weight.

    Matter fact, lets check Valuevs biggest opponents, and their skill level. Aside from the common opponent, McCline Valuev fought Mivrovic and Levin(who just got KTFO by Helenius).
    And watch the Wlad fight vs McCline and the Valuev fight. Wlad's was far superior and beat a WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY better version of JM.

    Valuev had a chance to win the WBC, and abandoned it even though the $$$ would have been more than he'd won in his defences!:lol:

    :rofl Briggs 3-4 inches shorter than Voidtali. Kirk Johnson 6'6? :rofl:rofl:rofl Try about 6'2. 4 inches off. Not too much exaggeration there. Gomez is 6'3, at best. "
