You're not taking into account that he has fought 24 rounds with James Toney, Lyle. You can honestly sit there and say he is the same boxer that fought Wladdy before C'mon!!
That's ridiculous. Peter has improved considerably and Vitali hasn't fought since late 2004! Peter has been consistently more active, and he is also the younger, hungrier fighter. Vitali is just trying to settle an old score for getting KTFO by Maskaev in the amateurs. I can't say that I blame him, though. And it's good he wants to redeem himself from a K.O. loss.
It's much easier for Vitali to take the path of least resistance and fight Maskaev. Why would he jeopardize getting KTFO by Peter? I guess that Peter can pummel his stupid looking milk-boy face in and then decide to retire for a couple of years while holding the 'EMERITUS' title. I doubt that he will do that, though. Instead, I think Peter will do his best to unify the titles.
