Who will win: Klitschko or Rahman for the Heavyweight Championship?
I hope Klitschko wins. Tough that he's coming off his injury/surgery and this is his first fight and Rahman does have KO Power. But if anybody can win it and overcome this it's Vitali. He's a true Warrior and Champion.

the fight has been postponed due to klitschko sustaining a severely bruised anal wall in a household accident, or maybe he sprained his knee like it said in the paper. either way the fight has been postponed and a new date will be set shortly.

Yeah, I heard that earlier today, he's sure had some bad luck with injuries lately. And after going through which will now be his 2 serious surgery to have to fight Rahman is tough.
I think he'll probably end up having to forfeit the Belt because he won't fully recover in time (within 90 days). Maybe his brother Wladimir with fight Rahman for his Belt if it becomes Vacant.

he retired today. the rehab would have been 6 months and he would have forfeited anyway. he said it was a tough decision but "i've been battling injuries more often than opponents in the ring lately"
sad to see him go. rahman inherits his title in 90 days

Yes this was a sad day when I heard about it, I almost wanted to cry, but I didn't. My favorite current boxer has retired, and I will miss him greatly. The Heavyweight Boxing Division isn't the same now or as competitive without him. Maybe one day in a year or so he'll come back? Maybe he can coach Wladimar in the right direction now to bring him to the top? I hope so.
