The champion has returned after four years in retirement. In 2004, WBC Heavyweight Champion Vitali Klitschko had to give up his title because of a right knee injury. In order that Vitali accepts the stripping of his belt, WBC named him Champion Emeritus, meaning he can fight for the championship anytime he is ready. They predicted that it will be less than a year before the champion comes back. But a year passed and Klitschko is still injured. After two years, they have dismissed the champion. Nobody thought that after four years and now 37 years old, Vitali Klitschko will have a shot at getting his title back from current champion Samuel Peter tonight, October 11, 2008, at the O2 World Arena in Berlin, Germany, which will be shown on live broadcast video at the US on Showtime.

Vitali Klitschko has a 35-2 Win-Loss card, with 34 KOs. That should spell doom for the power puncher Sam “The Nigerian Nightmare” Peter, who has a 30-1 card, 23 by knockout. As you know, his only loss came from Vitali’s younger brother, Vladimir, who currently holds the IBF-IBO-WBO Heavyweight belts. If Vitali wins the WBC belt, then the world of boxing has the two Klitschko’s as its top champions.

Here are some videos of the former champion on Youtube.
