I guess it depends on what you find exciting. Personaly I find fighters who go to the body, don't excessively hold and fight back harder after being hit with a good shot the most exciting. GGG may surpass him, but as of now I think Vasily Jirov is the most exciting Eastern European to have won a major title. I was lucky enought to be ringside for his fight with Toney and it was excitement from start to finish. Is Jirov thew most exciting EE in your opinion, or is there someone else more deserving of that title?

Kostya Tszyu is right up there for excitement. And though his career was cut short because of disease, Zeljko Mavrovic was exciting as hell in his loss to Lennox Lewis. He took a beating but just kept coming. I love that kind of heart.

He does, but its far more exciting (at least in my opinion) when a fighter commits to his punches rather than just throwing lots of arm punches. That said, there are heavyweights WAY more boring than Vitaly.

Why do you associate Tszyu with Australia? He moved there when he was like 22, same age as vic

You're really a sad, fat, ugly, alcoholic, obsessed a$$hole, buddy. You must dream about Vitali and his life and his wife and his bank account every night in your disintegrating double-wide and wake up shivering in a cold sweat.
Why did Vitali's life turn out so well, and yours so pathetically?
I'm sure that question keeps you up at night -- it must, given the extent of your Vitali hatred that has been your running theme, "cleverly disguised" or otherwise, on various boxing forums for years running.
