    Vitali has been named the replacement for Kirk Johnson on June 21. It was confirmed by Manny Steward, the trainer of Lewis. I can't wait to see this fight. I think it still might be on HBO instead of PPV.

    June 21 as in 2 weeks. Are you sure, that seems almost impossible.

    It will be on HBO rather than PPV and Lewis will destroy him. Klitchko is all hype.

    I agree, but its probably a better fight than K Johnson at least. "It will be on HBO rather than PPV" - thats cool.

    VK was already in training because he was going to be on the undercard that night.

    Vitaly is the weaker of the two brothers imho. i'd love to see LL get his ass handed to him though.

    I've always wanted to see what the Klitschko's could do against some major American competition. All of the sudden I'm actually interested in a boxing match again.

    :cool:

    Yeah it doesn't look good for Vitaly, since the better brother, Valery, got his ass handed to him in 2 rounds by a washed up South African tomato can a few months back.

    Prety good fight.

    I was rooting for Vitali and it look like he could have won. That was one nasty cut over his eye though. Lennox was still talking trash after the fight as usual.

    All I want to see is a rematch.

    The brother is called Wladimir and he would kick Lewis' old ass any time. He just didn't take that South African tomato seriously at all, which was a big mistake.

    Vitali was winning that fight. He had a REAL chance to win. Lewis looked HORRIBLE! Roy Jones Jr. would murder this guy if he fights like this. Rematch for Vitale then Lewis Roy! Thats what i wanna see
