I hope those sources are reliable because not only is this great news for Peter but also for the integrity of boxing altogether.

I for one am ecstatic.

This is the correct decision, and Im glad it has come to fruition.....Peter deserves his shot. Vitali can wait and should face the winner ;)

CC backatcha for siding with the good guys. ;)

Good. Vitali should definetly take a fight though, instead of just sitting around and waiting for the winner.. I wouldn't have any problem with him getting a shot at one of the other belts, to be honest.. Peter is the only fighter at HW who has actually deserved to be a mandatory... If Vitali could get a fight with Briggs or Valuev that would be perfect. THen we'd have a real unification bout if he fought Peter.

this is awesome. I cant beleive something that should happen actually is in boxing. Well after Peter destroys Oleg he can take care of the Kilts ,,LOL did I open a can of worms??? O0

I thought he took the money..... ???

I just cannot envision Vitali sticking around and I imagine this will have annoyed him tremendously. I am curious as to whether he will be back at all now....lets wait and see...

Well if he doesn't come back, then it's just as well.. Because all that says is he would have likely retired after beating Maskaev anyways, and never had any intention to stick around and defend the title. Would definetly like to see him back, but you do have a point I didn't think of.

Thanks for the update, BXNY.

This is wonderful news!


I think I'll go shadowbox around the living room
:thinking2:

what a result.

peter did deserve it and finally got his shot.
