His firtst two losses with Bowe were bull**** ( we can all agree on that) . He lost against lennox lewis just because he had many injuries; the day before the fight he didn't even go through any medical tests because he knew they would cancel the fight. 4 hours before the fight he recieved a shot to his leg to prevent his ankle from hurting during the fight. This made him drowsy and very tense; he said he almost fell asleep when lewis was entering the ring. Golota's loss to Grant was also bull**** because the ref wasn't supposed to ask Golota "Do you want to fight". If Golota didn't want to fight he wouldn't get up you retard. If the ref wouldn't ask that Golota would fight on. When Grant fell this is what the ref said "1,2,3,4,5,are you ok,7,8"; Was he trying to support Grant or what? Golota less the ring against tyson because tyson head butted him and opened a cut above his eye; Golota wouldn't last 12 rounds with that cut. At least the fight was chanced to a No Contest. We all saw Golota beat Ruiz; close fight but Golota won. Golota also beat Byrd; this iss why Golota should be 44-0-0-1 instead of 38-5-1-1
I will agree with you that Golota is very marketable BUT how do you figure he did so well vs Byrd and Ruiz who I might remind you are DON KING Champion fighters and Golota CLEARLY beat them both but lost on the scorecards....he knocked Ruiz down twice and Ruiz had a point deducted too! And Golota still lost...it's ridiculous to think that Don King wasn't involved in either of those losses for Golota.

Here is what I would think King wants 1) Byrd vs Ruiz with Byrd winning and going on to fight Vitali for a unification bout so King can earn more money because Byrd was the first person to really "stop" Vitali 2) He would want Golota-Brewster which he's getting and the winner to fight Vitali because A) Brewster beat Wlad Vitali's brother and has a chance to be the only person to beat both brothers (very doubtful) B) Golota vs Vitali would be a GREAT match up no one can deny it and this I think would make the most money for King.

The problem is The Klitscko's K2 promotions and King reaching an agreement for such fights
