Can Vitali be the same after 4 years out!

[Master]

It is risky, but he did see his brother outbox Peter and Vitali has a better chin so he probably thinks he can nick a decision in Germany.

I think with his injury problems a warm up fight could see him out of the game for good if something go's again, so taking on the best available opponent(imo) for the fight makes sence, but its a huge risk!
not sure who I think will win but sliding towards Peter...

I don't think he can be the same, but thats not to say he can't be effective.

In saying that Peter should beat him. Vitali has had such problems with injury in camps that Peter would be foolish not to rough him up and capitalise on Vitali's ailments.

VERY tall order for Vitali, props to him for taking it but like most above said, a warm up fight wouldn't have hurt.

4 years will take it's toll on anyone. Vitali should be no different, fortunately for him if his skills and reaction have diminished by 50% he should be on par with most of the HW division.

I'm not real high on peter....but he's gonna knock vitali's head off.
