it seems to me, to beat Vitali you have to have all 3 of the following: A lot of power, a very reliable chin, and good stamina. Honestly, i don't c any heaveweight who has that. Byrd - no power, and from what i've seen recently, no chin. Ruiz - mayb sum power, but knocked out in 16 sec by Tua, and knocked down twice in round 2 against Golata, and stamina he might have sum. Toney - power, probly not enuff for Klitshcko, chin, not enough for Klitschko, and good stamina tho. Barret - power a bit, killed by wlad so he would die twice against vitali, and good stamina. The only person i c who has the best shot is Rahman. - one punch power (over hand right), somewhat of a chin (can recover sumtimes), good stamina.
this is y he is so dominant, cuz no one has all 3. he has enough stamina to go to round 8 or 9 or 10, if he loses the last two rounds he'll still take a good deciison. amazing power, and take punches from Sanders and Lewis. So who can beat him?? Plz feel free to post
We are in the worst heavyweight era and Vitali is the king at the moment, and he will probably dominate due to his superior size to any other contender. And all the fighters around him bar an old tyson are medicore fighters.
Sad times in the hw world... :(
Vitali is dominant because of size. That is all
It helps that the division is the 2nd worst next to the 80's
Have you seen the top 10??? The 80s looks like a golden age compared to today . . . .
I'm sick of hearing "Lewis comes back and beats Vitali"
It's not going to happen, Lewis will not be the same fighter he was the last time he fought Klitschko. He watched the Williams-Klitschko fight and got motivated to go back into the right with Vitali. Bad move in my opinion. He is only setting himself of for a beating. The main reason: Vitali has been fighting and has kept himself fit, and conditioned. Lewis hasn't fought even close to as recently as Vitali. My prediction is that Vitali KOs Lewis in round 6 or 7. Some people here are die-hard Lewis fans, and think that Lennox comes back and does to Vitali what he did to him last time. Highly doubtful
also what gets me angry is that all these lewis nut huggers will sit there and say blah blah lewis will beat klitschko blah blah but when he loses it's o he was to old and out of shape anyway so it doesnt matter bad move on lewis i would love to see a real man suck it up when/if lewis loses to klitschko if he comes back
He is the most dominant due to the fact the division sucks! ANy past Hw champ of note would have destroyed this guy. Ex: Holy, Tyson, Bowe, Lewis ( not 20 pounds outta shpae as in last fight ), etc, etc..
Klitschko hater in the house
vitali could beat holyfield and maybe bowe and it woulda been a great fight between prime lewis and maybe a younger klitschko :p
People need to start admitting that Vitali is just good! He has his own style. He is not the greatest and never will be considered that. He is a very smart fighter and a very good BOXER. Technically he is lacking but that is what makes him so good. He can punch from any odd angle with good power and he can take any single hard shot. That is very rare nowadays. Can he take a barrage of hard punches at a time? So far nobody has been able to land a barrage on him without paying a high price so we will have to wait and see. He is a very tuff and he has good killer instinct, but not great. His size is his definately his biggest asset and he is only getting better. One thing everyone underrates is his movement in the ring. He seems to dodge punches very well, although it would be nice if he would use his gaurd too once in a while cause he depends too much on his reflexes. His luck will run out as champ someday just like everyone elses. But until that day... Go Vitali!
I believe Vitaliy will be remembered as a great boxer of this era, not just good. He is yet to prove that he is great, but I do believe he will prove this.
His great assets are intelligence, boxing skills, and athletism. He is an extremely talented and good-natured person.

I agree with you 100%.
Thats the problem VK wont be able to show himself before, he fights som one real good.......the problem is however there isnt such a man out there now, ore is it?
JaNnO wat do u mean if lewis was in his prime still. i would still say vitali, because he can take all those punches, and he can drop lewis. if you gyz watch the end of the 6th round and how lewis fell in his chair, as if he couldn't get up. personally i predicted klitsckho to win in the 7th.
you could be right...i saw vitali winning that fight too. but i'm not counting lewis out yet...tou know in this division, age isn't a big factor...just look at what foreman and hollified did...what i was saying is that if lewis returns and if by some means he was able to get his old form, then he is still a force to reckon with at heavies...i believe he can still beat vitali, but vitali has a big edge.

Lewis won`t be the same fighter. It appeared that the long lay off between the Tyson fight adn teh Klitscko fight effected him. Now he`s not been training for two yrs and he comes back after over two yrs. Klitscko i dare say is better now since he fought Lewis and lewis will be 40yrs old. I think Klitscko stops him in 6 rds.
