I like the guy, but you need to call it how it is & that is that Vitali has a severe case of cherry-picking here. He should have at least fought Povetkin or Chagaev. There's no excuse for taking on a guy who's best win is Devin Vargas.

....he was the WBC MANDATORY CHALLENGER so there you go he got his mandatory out of the way so he could have a free fight early 2010 before he has to fight the winner of Austin-____ (since Maskaev got KFTO).

The Klitschko's WANT to fight who the fans would like to see them fight but that's on the back burner now on account of the time Wlad and Vitali missed because they weren't able to fight for some reason that I forgot and now their mandatories have backed up.

Wlad's next 2 fights are set in stone: Chambers, Povetkin....unless Povetkin loses to Sam Peter and then maybe he gets a freebie but Vitali at least got his 1 mandatory out of the way AND Maskaev lost, so unless Ray Austin begs for a straight shot at Vitali we should see him have a fight of HIS choosing and not the WBC
