        its not about the resume. its about selling tickets. you need another
        name fighter to make the fight sell. tyson beat holmes who was shot
        he also beat a past prime michael spinks.

        people would rather see a faded legend than a bum in there
        against the champion

        thats why vitali is missing the 'superfights'. the guys he's fighting
        against are nobodies

            VK and Wlad regularly fill soccer stadiums and for all I know could be top 5 draws in boxing world wide.

            What "superfights", those are the best guys available to fight. The division has been cleaned out.

                Difference between Foreman and Toney is Foreman was winning fights and was relevant. Toney is neither.

                And selling fights? I think you vastly overestimate Toney's drawing power. His last fight wasn't even televised on TV. It was supposed to be, but then they didn't even show it because of how crappy it was.

                No one really cares about toney anymore. He hasn't done anything in the HW division in years. I know it sucks, but he's old and past it. Nothing he could do. That's why he wen to UFC for that fight, to bring attention to himself. No one cared about him. He went to UFC and got a bunch of attention because it was boxing vs mma then got humiliated.

                And Vitali is hardly concerned with selling tickets he sells out stadiums every time he fights in Germany.

                  ha ha very funny

                  how can one fighter fill out a stadium

                  a boxing match should be about the two fighters

                  one fighter cannot sell out a 'boxing match'

                    Vitali Vs. Larry Holmes?

                    Or is he too young?
