Botha vs Holyfield for shot at Vitali? - Page 2

HaHa. How do either of these guys deserve a shot at any title?

With all the shit the WBC is doing, I wouldn't be surprised they would make this farce of a match up for the mandatory position. God, someone needs to kill the WBC president.

And then I read some bullshit the WBO is trying to have two interim champions at one time. TWO!!!

Yeah, Harry Joe Yorgey's promoter wants the fight with Angulo to be for an interim belt at 154. My guess is they're going to go down the same route of the WBA and make Dzindziruk Super Champion. I hope I'm wrong, but this is boxing, after all.

The headline should have said Botha Holyfield shot fighters.

Vitali got himself out of the Maskaev fight, I'm sure he'll get out of this fight too.

Holyfield has fought competitively and hs not been hurt in ANY of his recent comeback fights and basically beat Valuev.Enough with the "OMG hes going to die in the ring," crap.

Dzindziruk is getting stripped due to no defences is what I hear. He's trying to get out of his Universum contact and last rumour I heard was that he and Sidorenko was talking with Don King.

Vitali isn't Valuev. Holyfield is going to be battered for however long the referee allows it to go on.

Maybe, but right now I'd say that about the entire HW division against Vitali. I don't care for Vitalis style, but hes the best HW we've seen in a while.

If Holyfield "earns" a shot, good for him I say.
