Vitali is the best? hits harder than foreman and lennox?

[jrosales13]

Wasn't Foreman 50 at the time?

Damn near,

and IMO a 48yr old Foreman got robbed against Briggs. I thought Foreman beat a prime Briggs.

you're a hater..thought we already covered this

but hes not a monster. hes just bigger and slower maybe smarter than he was but nowhere near as good or fast.

briggs was 220ish then hes a 260+monster now..id say he can take more punishment now

More like 230ish which suited better for him because he was a lot faster. Weight doesn't make your chin better. You can clearly see Lewis can generate a lot more power than Vitali with 1 shot. That's what this thread comes down to.

Lol, at the moron thinking this fight was fixed when Briggs took so much punishment that he could possibly be damaged the rest of his life with memory loss and other side effects from the beating he took.

relax he wasnt saying it was fixed he was jsut saying his post comments were weird

[WladIsTheChamp]

Yes. It's almost as if he's being paid to make the Klitschko's look good, like the fight was a fix as well. I don't believe that but that was a strange comment by Briggs.

A good beating will instil respect in someone but props to Briggs for being a gracious loser.

Mind you he was saying this after taking a 12 round beating to the brain.

Sounds like the truth to me,taking nothing away from Vitali Briggs has been shot for years.

Well to both of you morons I never said the fight was fixed, just that it almost seemed that way considering the circumstances of how good he made Klitschko look physically and verbally as well.

[MuckMuck]

If I recall, Lewis utilized a ton of dirty tactics in the Briggs fight. Didn't he constantly hit Briggs with hayemakers to the back of the head, and hold Briggs' head down while landing huge uppercuts?

This post is hilarious. You think a fatter older Briggs who ballooned to 340 lbs before this fight can take more punishment than a prime, younger and well conditioned version of himself?
