By Joe Harrison - In 2008, the heavyweight division had some interesting developments. To begin with, Wladimir Klitschko defeated Sultan Ibragimov to unify the IBF and WBO heavyweight belts. He is the first heavyweight to become a unified champion since Lennox Lewis [who officially retired in 2004]. Wladimir brought hope to the boxing fans everywhere who were dreaming of an undisputed heavyweight champion. At the time, the other title-holders were the WBA champ Ruslan Chagaev, and the WBC champ Samuel Peter. Many wanted Wladimir to face either of them, and attempt to unify three of the major world titles. Unfortunately, this would not happen. [details]

The 2 headed monster, my ass!
Klit bros. are exactly what's wrong with the heavys.All opponents have been hand picked losers. Ali,Lewis,Tyson, the list goes on an on, have never been laid out with a jab or quit on their stool! I can't wait for all the crap to end. Sooner or later they are gonna have to leave europe to truly prove to everyone just how weak they truly are. I won't even mention the other belt holder by name,but the dude looks like they found Sasquatch and shaved it. Lets face it world, can you truly look anyone in the eyes and say they are the best without cracking up! But alas I fear that won't happen. Not because there is no talent at heavy,but because the euro mob that holds these so called CHUMPS won't let their cash cow dry up! Put that in your pipe and smoke it.Comment

Wladimir and Valuev should schedule a fight on Feb. 7, the same day as Chagaev's fight, since neither one broke a sweat in there last fight, if they are serious about unifying. Doubtful. They could have fought Dec. 13, despite what they say.Comment
