Vitali Klitschko says he won't be fighting again

[Beanflicker]

Good idea. He definitely looked older and slower against Charr. He has nothing left to prove at this point in his career. There's nobody out there that would really add to his legacy (his brother already embarassed Haye), so all he'd be doing is risking "getting old" in a fight and taking a beating from a guy who wouldn't have lasted 4 rounds with him 5 years ago.

Vitali had a remarkable career. He dominated the division, he and his brother made history, and he has a Hall of Fame record.

Wladimir will no doubt go after the WBC belt once it's vacated and I'm assuming should all go to plan we will see Wladimir Klitschko vs Cris Arreola (providing Wlad beats Mariusz Wach) in the unification bout and after that Wlad will have his pick of opponents: Seth Mitchell, David Haye II, Tomaz Adamek, Alexander Povetkin, Kubrat Pulev, Tyson Fury, Odlanier Solis, Robert Helenius, David Price, etc.


Wladimir can make a run at Joe Louis' record of title defenses

Expected it! Watch haye (who was offered numerous contracts to fight vitali) go round calling vitali a ducker and a runner now lol.

Have a great retirement champ, when the dust settles ppl will appreciate u more. It's been a pleasure watching u. Legend!

Respect.

[Gandalf]

Fair play to me.

Hope he is serious about having a serious impact into a less than pleasant political system.

Best of luck to the champ in this new chapter of his life.
