    Will he? He never lost it in ring and none has won it since he retired!

    Did he had it in press conference?

    Didn't notice it, maybe he did. This is a good question though since we don't have anyone in the division with the RING title after Vitali retired.

    This f*ckin' guy won a vacant title and defended it one time...and some of you expect him to walk into the ring four years later with the ring belt.

    Not only would that be a huge laugh, it would be a tremendous insult to his brother...who has a much stronger claim to that belt...even though it's not his either.

    Scar,
    if he beats Peter who is Ring #2 do you think he has a claim to it? He never lost it in the Ring but I know many question how he was Ring Champion to begin with...........

    The bigger laugh would be him beating Peter after a 4 year layoff.

    You never deal with the matter at hand.

    I made an excellent point on topic with the thread...and you retort with "...a bigger laugh would be."

    I was spot on with my summary of the situation, you offer nothing but more rhetoric.

    Please join the discussion...

    Good question, never thought about that. I think Wlad should have the belt right now, don't know why he doesn't have it. Wlad beat Peter. Wlad is much better than Big Foot and Ruiz. But, I think DLH doesn't like Wlad or something. Who knows.

    The thing is to win the Ring title you must be ranked in top 3 and your oponent too! When Vitali fought Sanders Vitali was #1 and Sanders #3 so they fought also for vacant Ring title!

    When Wlad beat Peters they both was not in top 3 I believe! And now to become Ring champ he has to beat either Peter again or Chagaev! (Or Ruiz v Valuev winner if Chagaev then is out of top 3!)

    No and he shouldnt have it either. The way he got it was foul in the first place

    I thought to win the Ring Belt it must be the top two contenders must fight?? Confusing stuff, but it would be unjust giving vitali the belt after a 4 year absence. In any case the ring magazine rules are that a fighter relinquishes the belt upon retirement, therefore vitali must win it back like any other fighter now.
