There is a big difference on who deserves a shot at Maskaev right now and who acording to the rules of being WBC World Champion Emeritus.It grants Vitali the right to become the immediate WBC mandatory official challenger if someday he would wish to come back to professional boxing.

I think Peter has more than earned his right to fight Maskaev and would like to see it take place.I think Vitali will help gain intrest back to the division but actually I believe it takes away from what Wladimir is trying to acomplish.I would like to hear what Wladimir has to say on the whole situation.
