Vitali's win bad for boxing?

No cant be Bothered

Not sure really. I mean he's clearly never going to fight Wlad so we'll have no unification fight between them but we havn't had a unified champ in over 312 years or thereabouts anyway so not too big a deal.

Besides as brothers if between them they hold all the belts then collectively they will have unified under the banner Klitschko which in a way is pretty cool and more unique than having a unified champ anyway.

It will make boxing history a bit more interesting imo if we have the Klitschko era where all the titles were unified by two brothers.

Also as much as I wanted him to get sparked yesterday he did look damn impressive.

It was a complete demolition job but unlike Wlad he wasn't robotic, he wasn't hiding behind his jab, he wasn't fighting scared.

It was very remniscient stylewise of Sergio Martinez's win over Bunema the other week I thought, Vitali looking super relaxed, his hands low, he just looked so confident and in control.


It will be interesting to see if Haye calls Vitali out now because imo stick Haye in with Vitali and he's getting retired from the sport, Vitali would absolutely murder him imo. It would be unpleasant to watch.........

I think the Haye v Vitali fight been similar to when Vitali destroyed Herbie Hide.
