    2003 - Ruiz fights Roy Jones Jr. and Hasim Rahman
    - Vitali fights Lennox Lewis and Kirk Johnson

    2004 - Ruiz fights Fres Oquendo and Andrew Golota
    - Vitali fights Corrie Sanders and Danny Williams

    2005 - Ruiz fights James Toney and has time to fight again
    - Vitali fights an injured thigh and back and has time for only one fight
    "he has time to fight again" and ill bet he is feverishly deciding who he wants to fight next!

    if vitali hadnt been injured and he fough rahman in april (like scheduled) he and ruiz would be even on fights right now.

Dude wins, and that's all that counts in the Sport of No Excuses.
      Ruiz fought once in 02

      Five months later
      2005-04-30 241 James Toney

      Check Brewsters activity. Lewis only fought once a year for his last few years. You've already made a BS excuse for Byrd. Vitali isn't doing anything different than the other guys. The only difference is YOU! You are bias against him

        The worrying about his cut was ended after he beat K Johnson. What does the cut have to do with anything since then?

          Lennox was training for Kirk Johnson, Lewis slacked off and one of his plans was to use his weight to lean on Johnson and tire him.....

          Vitali couldnt take out an exhausted Lewis with clean and crisp shots (Lewis had no defense that night).

          Fact is Klitschko was preparing for a better opponent when it came down to fight time.....


          Lewis=God <-Straight shooting the truth.

          Vitali with the rest of the heavyweight division is garbage until I see one of the 4 champs defend their title against one another.

            9 out of your 10 predictions bite you in the a$$...

            Why do you keep embarrassing yourself with your inaccurate predictions. (See I didn't say anything insulting this time)

              That wasnt so inaccurate before the Barrett fight...

              Rahman is ****ty one minute he looks great the next he looks like garbage....But then again he only looks good against mediocre opponents...

              Rahman looks A class versus B opponent and C class against A opponents...

                I'll let his inactivity slide if he was doing it to make sure that cut is good and healed. Look at this inactivity.

                June 2003 - Lennox Lewis (awesome opponent in horrible shape)

                -- 6 months to earn title shot--

                December 2003 - Kirk Johnson (decent opponent in horrible shape)

                -- 4 months to get title --

                April 2004 - Corrie Sanders (weak opponent in horrible shape)

                -- 8 months to make voluntary defense --

                December 2005 - Danny Williams (weak opponent in bad shape)

                -- 9 months AT LEAST to face MANDATORY opponent --

                ?? Hasim Rahman (strong opponent, ?? shape)

                look at that plan when its all laid out. Klitschko fought often early because he HAD TO, then once he got the title, he slowed down big time. the cut is perfectly fine by now, so MAYBE Vitali is trying to hold onto the WBC title until Wladimir gets lucky and wins a belt...won't happen though

                I tried REALLY hard to post something positive, but these Klitschkos are as phony as it gets, sorry guys. I tried
                I think your words make sense but I would not call them Phoney although they are pretty weak , I will give both Klitchkos some respect if they both win their next fights against some good fighters , Peterand Rahman respectively until then mmmmmmmmmm........ I misss Lennox.

                    Lennox Lewis was supposedly 7 pounds overweight for this fight, Kirk Johnson was 25 pounds overweight. Why do you insist that Lewis was in horrible shape? The pace of the fight with Klitschko was close to 100 punches thrown together by both fighters in each round.

                    How many fighters who are 6'5+ and weigh +250 pounds dont get tired at such a rate?

                      I also cant believe that Valuev has 30+ years of age and is still fighting nobodies.
