Vitali Klitschko wants to return to the ring

[Mike Tyson77]

Id pay threw the nose to see Vitaili fight his brother or a rematch with Lennox.

Klitschko VS Klitschko, i think Klitschko would win

[Mikie]

I guess if he is serious about a come back, where does anyone rank him?

nick saban said he wasnt gonna take the alabama coaching job at least 30 times.. on ESPN, ABC, NBC, CBS

vitali just isnt interested in the attention those 'rumors' create, i dont put a whole lot of stock into his actual denials...

Vitali is not Nick Saban

I think Peter should get his shot against Maskaev and if Vitali comes back, he should look for a warm-up fight before jumping in the ring against one of the top fighters. If Vitali can get a warm-up in by late April/early May and Peter gets his shot against Maskaev in April, then Vitali can look towards October for a fight against Peter/Maskaev.

Did anyone every REALLY doubt that he would be back?

He blew out the knee and the type of injury that he sustained takes a minimum of 12 months rehab. He didn't want to seem like he was inactive for over a year so he said he would retire.

This way when he made him "Comeback" it would be a bigger draw. The man has a lot of gas left in the tank.

i think v klitschko would totally ruin peter in about 9 rounds

Why? He's never run from anyone else to my knowledge and he's technically a better fighter than Peter, who's pretty easy to hit.

Not to mention, he doesn't have the legs for running from Peter.

This actually seriously pisses me off. Vitali has always picked his challengers too carefully. Both of his last two fights before retirement were against mediocre journeymen who had one big victory so the public was fooled into taking them for legitimate challengers. I am talking about Corrie Sanders and Danny Williams. Now that the WBC title is being held by another mediocre journeyman coming off a big win, he is all of a sudden ready to come out of retirement. Everyone wants a shot at Maskaev right now. He has recent early round knockout losses to Kirk Johnson, Lance Whitaker, and Corey Sanders (the 300 lb whale who did the recent exhibition match with Mike Tyson). He had Hasim Rahman's number, but there are about 15 heavyweights even in today's heavyweight division who could beat him. This guy even inspired Bernard Hopkins to consider going up to heavyweight to beat him and then get to call himself a heavyweight champion. All of a sudden this guy gets a title, and here's Vitali!

Peter's camp had better protest the hell out of this, because once Vitali beats Maskaev he sure as hell won't be giving Peter a shot at the title. No way. He'll probably issue another challenge to Mike Tyson or maybe the latest one win wonder will have come up by that time. I could definately see Vital Klitschko versus Evander Holyfield happening.
