And you're out of your mind if you don't think Sanders would fight Wlad again. Wasn't he calling Wlad out this time last year? It's amazing how that fight suddenly becomes one of the better ones when we (myself included) scoffed at it a year ago. This division gets worse every year.
Klitschko should fight Sanders

If people don't know how could Sanders really was, they can see his knockouts on Youtube. In his prime he never got the big fights and the big money because
1. lived in South Africa and didn't want to move to the USA like Botha (who he beat 4 or 5 times in the amateurs, I think)
2. None of the big names wanted to fight him for obvious reasons
3. He didn't really give a ****.

Before any of you boxing experts, considers Sanders as a viable opponent for Wlad, let me just give you guys an update on him:
After nearly a 2 year hiatus from the ring, Sanders returned in late 2006 to take on journeyman Colin Wilson (32-18 at the time). Sanders stopped Wilson in the second round but it was reported that Sanders was very out of shape and didn’t look good at all.
Sanders returned in May 2007 to face unknown Daniel Bispo(19-6) and scored a 10 round UD. Reports stated that Sanders’ broke his (left) hand early on in the fight and as a result was not able to KO Bispo.
Since then, the Sanders camp has been very quiet about Corrie’s injury and has not stated if and when he would be able to return to the ring. And surprisingly, they haven’t commented on Sanders as being a potential opponent for Wlad.
So basically, I don’t know if Sanders would be in any shape to fight Klitschko if he was even offered the fight. You would think that Team Sanders would ‘throw their hat’ in the race, with Klitschko seemingly wanting an opponent for a fall bout.Comment

Definitely. I'm surprised they haven't yet. Corrie must be on a golf tour and hasn't heard the news for a while. Because, like I said, you know Sanders would fight Wlad.Before any of you boxing experts, considers Sanders as a viable opponent for Wlad, let me just give you guys an update on him:
