You think so? He better win real fucking clear with the fight in Germany. Not to mention Vitaly doesn't lose very many rounds, or at least he didn't used to. I really can't see Peter winning a decision. Maybe by KO, or cuts though.
i forgot that it was taken place there, you have a good point, i dont know about cuts, maybe some kind of injury from klit, i mean how can i pick him and he hasnt faught in so long.
If it was the Vitali we knew, I'd pick him in 10. Peter is just the type of guy he'd do good against. Now, I have no idea. And furthermore I refuse to make a pick before the official weigh-in, after we see that Vitali won't injure himself stepping down from the scale

Peter should be able to beat Vitali simply because he is healthy and younger. No way could I pick Vitali who hasn't fought in 4 years and postponed fights because he couldn't get through training camp.

Didn't you hear Peter's explanation for this? "MY EAHDRUM WA BROKEN AND I'VE LOSE TWENTY TWENTY FIGH POUNDS DURING THE FIGHT"
can only make a prediction assuming that Vitali comes back the same fighter he was a couple of years back.....if that is the case, i expect him to control the fight from distance, and knock Peter out sometime between rounds 6 and 9
Yeah, that's really the only question mark - and it's a big one. Vitali hasn't been in the ring since 2004. A lot can change. This is a tough one for me because Klitschko is pretty unknown coming in. I want to pick him, he was and probably still is way better, but isn't there a chance he'll look like he doesn't belong at all?
Of course it's a big question, and a real possibility that 'tali could get in the ring and just look like a rusty, clueless oaf. But in the majority of cases, when a fighter makes a comeback fight, even after a few years, they at least resemble the fighter they used to be to the tune of about 50% right? Unless of course they are 50 years old. It's not the sort of fight you'd want to bet on, but Vitali should still have what it takes to beat fat little peter. Just watch the McCline fight.
Peter is utter dogshit- so long as Vitali comes back at even ONE percent the fighter he used to be before a succession of fractured pubic hairs and other such telling injuries ruled him out for years and years, he should be able to beat the crap out of Sam with ease. Frankly, I hope he does just that. MTF
my sentiments exactly. If Brittly shows up on fight night, it means that he's 100%, at which point I give him 100% chance of winning.
