Vitali Klitschko To Resume Political Career

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

It appears that WBC Champion Emeritus Vitali Klitschko (35-2, 34KOs) is moving away from boxing and heading back to the world of politics. Klitschko announced during a press conference that he intends to run for office to become the mayor of Kiev. [details]

maybe he can go into a field where he can actually enter and stay there without pulling out.

or is he going to be winning the election with half way to go and then pull out?

[Derranged_]

That’s a good point TS; but I wonder, if Vitali pulled out of the election at the last minute due to low ratings in the polls, does he think that they’ll postpone the election?....

[Thread Stealer]

he thinks he can cut in line when he comes back from a postponed election.

i'll be serious for once. vitali leaving boxing again is a good thing. him in the hw division was only preventing progress, he was never really healthy enough to be fighting anyway.

people like holyfield dont do themselves any justice but vitali needs to move on. on his day he is good, maybe better than good, but his body paid the price.

Well As Long As He Does It For The Good Of The People Of Kiev Fine,sucks Though He Was Pretty Good.

Vitali should announce his retirement from boxing. He can't be going back and forth all the time.

Nice job delaying the Peter/Maskaev fight a year, and coming back just to get injured again. Seriously this time he should stay retired. It's unfortunate what happened, but the guy needs to let it go.

I am a Vitali Klitschko fan.. but I don't want him to fight... he should let go...

I mean I understand the reason he came back and pulled the Emeritus card is because Wlad wanted to unify with Maskaev and king said, I'm not gonna watch the WBC to go a Klitschko. Maskaev has to fight the mandatory Peter (Even though the WBC rules allow for a unification bout over the mandatory)

So King killed the unification.. vitali came out and said.. I'm the Emeritus, WBC will belong to a Klitschko one way, or another...

Anyhow, this is water under the bridge and just proves that Vitali would do good in politics. Just leave the politics out of boxing.

Best of luck.. your fights were fun.. just stay retired.

Vitali got TKO'd by Danny Williams for three years and has been ducking him ever since.
