    Makes no difference if he stays or goes the HW division is dead and has been for a long time.

      If I was in his shoes and so close to setting such a monumental record/records in terms of beating the historical Joe Louis marks of longest reign and amount of title defenses, I would push through to get those if I possibly could...as long as he physically and mentally feels good, there would be really no point of stopping now after getting so far after 10 years.

        He became lineal Champ after Chagaev he's a long way off Louis's record. Being a title holder in todays era can't be compared to when it was 1 belt per division.

          A title is a title, nobody is talking about lineage here. Only butt hurt detractors bring that up.

          Besides Louis' opponents were garbage, and he fought each month, Wlad in many ways has surpassed him on many levels.

            I just want him to knock down this current crop of US/UK hype jobs so they can join the others on the "always ******, just kidding when I said they'd win" list. One more wave of epic dream spoiling.

                To a certain demographic of butthurt people in one country, it's dead. HW fighters are doing great globally.

                    Only a fan of a fighter would claim being a title holder is the equivalent of being the undisputed champion (which is what Louis essentially was). Klitschko isn't going to beat Louis's record unless he defends another 16 times. Good luck with that. Wlad's opponents are garbage but instead of bum of the month we get 2 bums a year.
