Let's face it, heavyweight boxing is pretty much rock bottom at the moment. I LIKE Byrd, but his style is more made for chin-scratching technical appreciation rather than genuine excitement. Ruiz goes without saying.

For me, there was only really two men who made for exciting fights last year - Vitali and Tyson. Whatever you think of these guys, they're rarely dull, are they?

Yet does Vitali ruin things, gate-wise, by being so damn respectful to his opponents? People don't really want someone to see "He iz very gud opponent, yu know?" people want "I think he's ****, I'm going to smash him to bits". Even after watching Danny Williams painfully get battered over eight one-sided rounds, Vitali's still there. "He haz gud chin, big heart". If he'd have gone "I thought he was a Limey blimp and I slapped him around like a rag doll" it'd have made more headlines, surely?

Well Vitali did show some of his mean side when he said those words what will go down in history. "Got any excuses tonight, Roy?"

and "He destroyed my dream of fighting Mike Tyson.."

id be funny as ****ing hell to see vitali call peopel **** in american, he he he he is **** u know, not very gud fighter u know, iz knock him out in 1 round cause he is no not gud u know how i know? cause i watch him he bad horrible fighter, i am best and lennox lewis is ***** and no not rematch me

Yeah, Vitali was all up in Jones' face at a boxing gathering and he had that crazy smirk on his face and he said something like, "Zoo you havfe any excuzes tonight, Roy?"

Actually I think he was facing his brother:

he said: "hey rahman, why is your head so inflamed? got any excuses Tarver?"

then turned around and bit Jay Nady's ear.

For one second I thought you was serious Jack

Even if he just started off slow and built his way up.

"Rahmans, he is not very gud, u know? I know. U know? I know. His conditions is... um... bad."

Actually, screw that, his English has improved a lot since the Lewis fight, hasn't it?

Vitali is also imfamous for being cold ****ed and knocked out cold at a Star Wars convention at the hands of Marvis Frazier.

Indeed his english improved a lot, which is weird, especially because he trains in Ukraine

Vitali said, "He destroyed my dream of fighting Tyson."

Glen said, "Shut up bwoy...joo ain't de bad mon who knocked out de chumpion Roy Jones Junya"

Vitali said, "I am ze heavyveight champ of ze world. You are ze fecking chump who lost to ze man Sven Ottke."
