So whats the difference? Oh, Vitali didnt just land a bolo punch and instead outworked, out-thought, out boxed the former LHW titlist?
I just think its hilarious how people look back at the past as if it was undefeated giants fighting each other in epic slug fests. How about Michael Moorer fighting Evan Fields for the title...in the mid 90's. A former LHW vs an old Cruiser. For a title. Say what you want about Adamek...he didnt win...he didnt come close. Moorer was killing Foreman and had won the title.
In the 70's 180 lbs Bob Foster got 2 title shots. One from Frazier and one from Ali...Golden age. This wasnt a "blown up cruiser" like ali and frazier, no this was a guy getting hw title fights coming in weighing 180 lbs.
Vitali at 40 years old dominated every aspect of that fight. Foreman in his 40's lands a bolo in a former LHW and people say that makes him amazing etc...So whats the deal?
