Williams vs Vitali news.

This came close to a knockdown check it out Vitali - Troy Roberts 1997 http://www.klichko.com/gallery_video/root/fights/Vitaliy/05_Troy_Roberts/05_Troy_Roberts_round_02.mpg

Well as a british fan ive can comprehensively say this is the first ive heard of it, as for vitali being floored not as a pro he hasnt, he was ko'd by Kickboxer Pele Reid when they fought some time ago and I believe that Maskeav floored him as an amateur on more than one occasion (left hooks) but this was yonks ago and as a pro he has never officially touched canvass in a knockdown capacity as a pro.

I heard that Vitali has had some injury problems in the run up to this fight, and also told he was floored in sparring, can anyone verify this for me. ...I believe the injury and the knockdown were created in your oversized mellon.

he went off-balance and dropped on his hands Sanders pushed him down.

I don't remember Vitali getting floored by Sanders. he went off-balance and dropped on his hands

if flooring means knocked down he certainly wasn't. A lot of people like to say that he was seriously hurt in the first by a Sanders left but those who think that need to watch the round again, he was buzzed but thats it. Instead of whaling away like Sanders would want he held and was off balance, he is also somewhat unccordinated so it made it look bad. Had VK gone crazy he may have been caught with something really big...he is smarter than most think.

Sounds very odd. He had injured his fists in the Sanders fight. His fists were very swelled after the fight. Sanders head was made of cement. Flooring is not a big deal. Vitali had been "floored" in Round 1 of Sanders fight, and that had no impact on the outcome of the fight, as we all know. . I don't remember Vitali getting floored by Sanders.

Sounds to me like someone is trying to unsettle Vitali before the fight which can only be a good thing for Danny Williams.

can't verify it, and i wouldnt rely much on the info you received.....
