A pointless fight. The only fight that should be made at HW is Klitchko vs Peter
the tiger finally gets to get ktfo!
Thats the end os Wlads promise to unify then, his next two fights are pretty much booked.

Peter needs to fight the winner of Chagaev vs The Giant.

Why do they fight these fights that no one is interested in why they all know who we the fans wanna see? I could understand if Klitschko was coming off a grueling fight buts hes not.
Is it not obviuos Ron?

Because if they fight that will be another two of the belts unified which will only leave one more fight to unify them all.
This is simple. Everyone always talk about how the ABC belts dont mean anything. So why dont Klitchko say Im not fighting anyone but the #1 guy out there. Who cares if they take his belts all of boxing knows that he is the Champ of the HW division. So he should make them make the fight with Peter. Where is the Powerful Ring magazine commitee when you need them?

You one of the main guys that talk about how these ABC belts dont mean anything. So why lobby for that fight?
Who cares about the overweights? Quit watching them altogether guys!

No, there is no undisputed champ or ring champ at HW.

There are 3 guys laying claim to the title, Chagaev, Wlad and Peter.

Untill all these guys have met eachother it'll stay that way, that is how everyone is pushing for HW unification.

But in every other division there are fighters with belts that are not the ring champ. For instance the LW division.

Hopkins is the light heavyweight champion Ron, he beat Tarver and Tarver had beat Jones.

Lennox Lewis was the last recognised HW champion but he retired which fractured all the titles, nobody has went through and cleaned them up again yet so there is no #1 guy till that happens.
Klitschko is the number one guy.
Klit is the number one ranked guy but he hasnt proved hes the best in the division yet. If Peter could beat the Chagaev/Valuev winner then it would make Wlad-Peter II huge.
Klitschko is the number one guy.
Why because you say so?

As i said, the division is splintered, they can all lay claim to the title.
klitschko is the number one heavy.....no question. he beat the longest reigning champ in chris byrd. he may not be undisputed but he is the number one ranked heavyweight.
