Does Vitali Klitschko deserve an 'easy' farewell fight?

[TGD]

A champion should go out on his shield.

[BattlingNelson]

If he's satisfied with his middling, mediocre resume than sure.

It's not like any of those contenders would have an impact resume-wise anyway.



As for the question, I think that Vitali at 40 is entitled to do whatever he wants.

[BattlingNelson]

He's had nothing but gimmes for years now. A tough fight would jarr him.

Who of those mentioned is tough enough? Povetkin? No. Haye? No. We've already seen that he is only in there for the paycheck. Helenius/Pulev? No. A win over either would be classified as a win over a novice.

[chav]

He's got a pretty weak resume anyway, why change it now and fight someone that could dethrone him in his final hurrah

[Jedi Vader]

He's had 40+ farewell fights so another one won't hurt him.

Yeah, you're right. Like I said, he should just fade away. One less paper champ and maybe Wlad gets the recognition he deserves afterward.

[kokingbill]

Helenius would be a very easy win for him Iin a going away fight. Aggregiously overrated guy with a skullet who got schooled by chisora. I liked the match for Kiev. Hardest part would be training.

[Capaedia]

Yes. As long as it's actually a farewell fight, and not just another of his 'defenses'

[S. Saddler 1310]

wasn't Charr his easy farewell fight?

[damuttz112]

He's been having farewell fights since Lewis.
