    Easily.

    All four of the major belts could still be in the hands of different fighters.

    I get it, I just don't think it is a sensible way to look at the matter.

    Wlad has been dominant yes but we've had our fill. I'd rather have 4 guys holding HW title belts than Wlad. People could root for whoever they want. Look at the MW division. 3 or 4 champs and people know who they like,who is better than and who is worse than.

    Or look at the UFC HW title. That title is won and lost like every year but the excitment is what counts. People would rather have fun heavyweights than Clinchko grabbing and jabbing to a points win over some overmatched guy.

    We all would enjoy exciting close fights, where its hard to predict who will win prior and during the match. But those guys usually don't last long in the business. But for Wlad, ever since the 1st Peter fight, it hasn't been allowed to happen, by way of either a clear KO win or lopsided decision

    When an undefeated, former Olympic gold medalist and trinket title holder who's officially ranked either #1 or 2, depending on what you do with Vitali's inactivity, becomes over matched, It just shows how good his opponent is. How many yrs had it been since Povetkin last tasted defeat or the canvas anyway??

    You make it sound like Wlad has 61 wins but only 20 by KO. But the guy has stopped 52 out of 61. Wlad smacked the Iron jawed Wach around the ring for a UD, and chased Haye and Ibragimov for 12rds. He's had 4 UDs and 1 TD win in the last 12.5 yrs, going beyond he's two loses.

    ****, It took Ali 15rds to finally KO Wepner. If it were a 12rd fight Ali would be called **** and boring then, for carrying such an over matched sloppy bum.

    Well this should still be happening in the division anyway. The contenders should man up more like Chisora and the few other names and fight each other, thus drawing more interest in title fights the winners would be awarded with. There should be more Fury/Hayes, Arreola/Stivrnes, Pulev/Thompsons. Not Klitschko's fault they dont like fighting each other. And we already know who is better then worse.. Klitschko, and then everybody else..

    And rather have 4 guys holding belts, **** man , Wlad still gets **** for being the real champ, because Vitali holds the last belt

    Pulev says he needs two more fights before being ready for Wlad

    Pulev has been waiting for several years to challenge Klitschko for the IBF title belt and the Ukranian's victory over Povetkin means he will finally get his dream match in 2014.

    Pulev has never said he doesn't want to take the fight. If he said that he would be stripped of mandatory stauts.
    Wlad will fob off yet another worthy contender and repeat his Mormeck, Wach and Pianeta run.

    To be fair, seeing a weakness and exploiting it are two very different things. I'd like to see the fight though...there are not so many decent challengers left.

    Everyone thinks they see a weakness until they get in the ring. Then they end up on the floor or the receiving end of a wide points loss....

    Thats not the issue. The issue is people saying Pulev doesn't want the fight when he clearly does.
    Boystov has no business in the ring with Wlad.
    Pulev and Stervine should be next.

    When Wlad beats Pulev I wonder what tune Dinovelvet and company will be saying? they will probably call Pulev a "bum" and a worthless defense, Wlad just can't catch a break with these people... Also Stiverne is Vitalis mandatory, not Wlads. Pay attention.
