Vitali Resigns
Yesterday, Jose Sulaiman tells Vitali Klitschko to defend his title or relinquish it; the next day, Klitschko retires. "Hasim Rahman" is considerably easier to spell, but this development otherwise does nothing for the heavyweight division, since Rahman's been a pro for eleven years already: he'll cherry-pick four or five big payday defenses and then he'll be gone, too. The whole thing's an uninteresting mess. That's why Mus Mus Tail is throwing its weight behind Sinan Samil Sam, who at least has an interesting name to go with his decent albeit not particularly dignified record, and whose manager's name is better still. Go get 'em, Yosemite Sinan! We are with you all the way!
