Was Vitali really ducking Rahman, by wanting Maskeav instead?

the problem with that is, to us it might look ****** for Vitali to duck Rahman, but you have no idea what was going on in Klitschko's mind considering Rahman is the man who KO'ed Lewis. I think it was dumb of him to make up all those injury excuses instead of just saying he didn't want Rahman. Vitali would have won anyway, but he ducked Rock.

Hell no, if you think Vitali retired because of Rahman's boxing skills then ur ******...

4 different times he pulls out for as many as 3 different injuries and he begins campaigning for mayor the next month? I don't think so...

vitali defintately was ducking rahman, just becuase rahman lost doesnt change a thing, this thread is ****** and the conclusion already been established. ive seen vitali interviewed asking does rahman really hit that hard after the meehan fight. and after that vitali never fought rahman ducked him on three separate occasions. rahman sucks but is a beast and can punch .. the klitsckos are soft and dont like to strand up to any man bigger then them

I agree completely. We aren't saying Rahman would win, we are just saying Klitschko ducked him.

I found it hard to stomach that people genuinely believed Vitali would duck Rahman, and find it less so now. There were actually people believing Rahman - a man for whom the word "mediocre" was invented - would beat Vitali.

Let's not forget the real reason why Vitali retired... his body just couldn't take the strain of going eight rounds with Danny Williams. Vitali's body is all ****ed up and he's gone back to the Ukraine... whereas Danny is still beating contenders and enjoying his cakes. Ask yourself, who really won that fight?
