    Surely he has more than enough time left to squeeze another fight this year? :think

    Yeah, against Arreola, but Arreola said no thanks.

    Bönte was saying there was no US fight possible this year. They are trying to get Mitchell to Germany, HBO interested.

    Can't believe Arreola/Boytsov/Povetkin all wont fight him...

    Really it's unheard of in HW boxing.

    Probably because he's waiting for Vitali to retire, so he can fight for the vacant belt.

    imo possible opponents for wlad:

    1. povetkin (he will duck wlad)
    2. Pulev (could be possible)
    3. Arreola (he said officially no)
    4. Fury (he wants to fight him late 2013)
    5. Mitchell (to green)
    6. Jennings (to green)
    7. Abdusalaev (to green)
    8. Helenius (imo he is ready and would give a very good fight, but injured and out till mid 2013)
    9. Chisora (will get raped by haye)
    10. Haye (wlad won't fight him again)
    11. Price (to green)

    he should fight pulev in november in germany
    and then make an all american tour next year and take in march arreola, in august mitchell and in december jennings.

    It depends on whether he is hired out for another Birthday party.

    these are the top contenders to the Klitschkos, and it really shows how weak the HW division is. If Wlad can't get a good opponent, he should at least fight everybody he can get into the ring. He should fight every three months. It's not like he took a lot of punishment in his last fights. At this point, Wlad is wasting his prime. Why not fight Pulev, Mitchell and Price this year?

    He ****ing should. Raphael made a good point on ESPN. Why fight twice a year when you are killing everyone? He should be fighting 3 times a year. I feel he will fight once more since this year has been super easy thus far.

    Surely he needs time to recover after his gruelling war with Thompson?
