Great for boxing - Klitschko in SI

[SweetPea]

I always felt that boxing is just as alive as ever, its just that the media stopped covering it thus the casual fan stopped giving a dam. I mean there is still plenty of boxing happening, sometimes great sometimes not so great, so it can't be dead as is often proclaimed. Having said that it is always nice when boxing gets a few pages in general sports magazines like si, I read the pavlik article and it was rather good. I'm sure the next time I'm at the barber I'll end up reading this one...as for wladdy telling vitali to screw off I don't think he'd ever do that, and I do think he wants to unify but I also think he does want to fulfill their childhood dream of holding titles at the same time.

Yep, Wlad is still saying all the time that his ultimate goal is to have he and Vitali holding all the belts at the same time. If that can't happen, then Wlad wants to unify.

Wlad isn't going to get in the way of Vitali fighting the Peter/Masakev winner. Hopefully Peter can beat Maskaev and then beat Vitali. Then we'd at least have a chance at Wlad-Peter II in 2009, and we could have one undisputed heavyweight champ.

boxing should have a tag team division...klitschkos could own the shit out of it, have wladdy soften up the oponent with the jab for 4 or 5 rounds then have vitali go in and come out slinging and finish the job...Sweet pea if vitali is anywhere near his old self, which is doubtful considering he's been out 3 plus years, I just don't see sam beating him. Other than youth I'm not sure sam has anything on him, vitali isn't going to fight scarred and he will try to finish sam if he gets him in trouble. that's the difference between him and wladdy, he can eat a couple bombs and not worry to much about getting knocked out himself, question is can sam still eat em?
