    Boxing is a global sport empty sack.

    i am well aware of that but Chisora is awful and not a World Level fighter. It has been proven time and time again.

    Okay. Vitali beat Peter for the WBC title. Peter in 2008 is in no way, form, or shape, the lineal champion! Peter was no. 2, but Vitali was unranked for being inactive for so long! Neither was Juan Carlos Gomez, or Chris Arreola in 2009 lineal champions or numbers 1 or 2 when he fought them.

    Wlad became the heavyweight king, and number one on the planet, in 2006, in Vitali's retirement. Wlad didn't automatically become number two just because Vitali beat someone Wlad already beat three years previously.

    So in order to be the real champ, Vitali has got to beat Wlad after his comeback, which he hasn't done so. So Vitali remained number 2 all these years, finally dropping out of the rankings altogether for inactivity in 2013.

    Besides, Sanders in 2004 was no 3, Vitali was no 1, and Christ Byrd number 2. So that fight was between no 1 and no 3, not 1 and 2. So if we make an exception for Vitali and Sanders in 2004, then a fight between Wlad and Chagaev, numbers one and three in 2009, should be for the lineal crown too!

    Anyway, in October 5, Wlad is definitely number 1, and Povetkin number 2, with Vitali retired or inactive, and Haye too.

    the WBC is the original real title, all others are crap...

    Vitali has the only valid strap...

    i'll bet all my vCash crap that Povetkin lands a beautiful over-hand right and a nice left hook combo-platter on
    Waldo's fragile mandible and he crashes to the canvas like a rag-doll shot with an elephant gun...

    and the new WBA, WBO, IBO, Ring Mag, WWF, WWE, Super Pooper Champion....

    Opie Taylor ....errrr... I mean... Alexander 'Sasha' Povetkin!!!!

    if only Ginger Boy had a Mullet!!!!!

    Vitali put Shannon Briggs in the emergency room...

    Briggs defeated George Foreman...

    Foreman defeated Michael Moorer...

    Moorer deafeated Holyfield...

    Holyfield KTFO 'Iron' Mike Tyson...

    it's irrefutable....

    btw..

    WBC is the only legit title...

    Vitali owns it...

    Vitali destroyed Danny Williams right after he owned Mike Tyson...

    game over...

    Waldo can only worship Vitali's strap...

    I hear Vitali allows baby brother to spit-shine it sometimes...

    I agree with that. But he was closer to the lineal crown than a **** to **** Chris Byrd who lost to a shot to shitter Golota 2 years earlier, and Chageav, who was banned from boxing outside of Germany. HBO even rejected to air the fight.
    How can either one of those guys hold or pass on the lineal HW Championship of the world?
    You dont win lineage through vacancy. This is why k2s tag teaming has been a stain on the division.

    With the two bros both still being belt holders, and refusing to fight each other, its muddied the water as to anything being concrete or irrefutable.

    Not just "these days", that problem has been there for quite a while.
    Good example in the heavyweight division were the Tyson vs Spinks fight, in wich Tyson was defending his undisputed heavyweight title while Spinks was the lineal champion who didn't even have a minor belt.
