Who should Vitali fight next?

[Derranged_]

IMO it is in a fighter's best interest to fight opponents that the fans want most. It is fans who buy the tickets to the arena, order the ppvs, and who ultimately give the fighter their approval ratings. After months of speculation, injuries, and excuses on Vitali's next opponent, here we are today still having the same discussion/arguments on his next opponent. So, as fans of the heavyweight division and boxing in general, who do you(the fan) want to see Vitali fight next?

Either the winner of Barrett/Rahman or any of the current champs. Either would be a step in the right direction.

He should honor his mandatory in late fall, a few months after the WBC Interim title match.

For Vitali to capture the boxing community's interest again, he should fight the winner of Rahman/Barrett and then follow up shortly(2-3 months) with a fight against one of the other beltholders. Vitali should also go on ESPN's Tueday or Friday Night Fights, BDSP, and other sports shows to promote himself and get him name out there.

I voted for "Someone with a pulse"

Brewster because he usually enjoys beating on guys who beat his brother quite easily. O and maybe mcbride since he beat his god tyson.

Seriously Jose, I gave you a great list of "pulsating heavyweights (except for maybe Ruiz)," so who are you gonna vote for?

I want to see him fight,
Ali
Forman
Marciano
Louis
Lewis
Tyson
Holmes
Bear
Liston
Smokin Joe
and then Holyfield, All in their prime of course.

Because that's the only way the hater's will shut up.

Yeah I know I was being a smartass.

I think Toney is the clear cut choice

[hollister]

At first, I thought that he should fight the winner of Rahman vs. Barrett, but what if the winner isn't ready? So then I thought that he should fight Byrd, to avenge his loss. Then I thought about it and Byrd agreeing to fight him seems unlikely, so I voted that he should fight Toney, since Toney seems unafraid of him, and he'll most likely get more recognition for beating Toney anyway.
