Vitali Klitchsko: does Peter even have a chance?

[El Kabong]

I think people are quick to judge Vitali just because he's never been knocked down they think he can take anything.

When I compared Vitali to Holyfield the purpose of that was "At what point do you say, if I keep fighting with this injury, will it cost me my career?" ...Holyfield screwed his shoulder up, in the first round vs Chris Byrd and he ended up going the distance and you could say because of this he lost his next 2 fights, one by stoppage to JAMES TONEY!

If you want to see fighters get maimed or seriously injured then fine but some guys do think long term and live to fight another day. Vitali stood in there vs Lewis with a sliced up face and even then people call him out for having the fight stopped when he had NOTHING to do with that stoppage other than being cut.

You are all too hard on Vitali's 2 losses. I think he should stay retired but hell if he decides to fight again, I see no reason he couldn't compete with Sam Peter if not totally whip his ass
