Vitali Kick Boxing Footage

i like vitali's fighting better in kick boxing than when he was boxing. he was pretty smart in there using his feints. you could tell it was pre-steriod vitali, or maybe very little usage of roids. his body looks more like a fighter than a body builder. cool vid, thanks.......... LoL but Vitali today or against Sanders or Luis never looked ripped like someone on roids. if anything he just looked like someone on a very high protein diet. Wlad looks ripped, Vitali is not ripped at all...He's simply bulky.

yeah, like a lot of other people have observed, his handspeed was a lot faster when he was lighter. I wonder if he would have been better as a boxer if he stayed a bit lighter and more mobile, around 230ish, I guess he though the extra strength was worth sacrificing handspeed. Kickboxing is definately a more dangerous sport than boxing. I can't believe they let that fight continue for that long, the guy was just stumbling around the ring taking punches. That type of shit can easily get someone killed.

Vitali was not good with his kicks, he won that fight easily with his boxing skills. If he didn't waste time throwing kicks, he would've finished this guy much faster. Boy Vitali was much lighter those days. You flat out refuse to give the Klitschko's any credit. Clearly you are biased and a hater. But what else is new.

Wow! Now I see why he was a world champion kickboxer. He was really quick on his feet and that left kick was lick a super long jab. I agree that Vitali seemed much faster as a kickboxer then a boxer, and less awkward as well. Nice video.

if i remember correctly from my vitali vs warring kickboxing vid i think vitali once weighed like 202 pounds

Man, coming from one who's done kickboxing & muay thai for quite sometime I'm quite impressed with his agiligy for being so tall. But you have to admit it was definitely his hands that did a lot of the damage. Impressive. If he got better I'd love to see him do K1 or something against some pretty big guys.

Lmao at the Skelton KO! Danny couldn't even do that..? ..Sad sack of shit.

. Man was Vit skinny in that video or what? The Vitali used steroids crew is gonna jump on this as evidence that Vit got on the juice to bulk up. Actually its just the pants making it seem that way. His chest is clearly bigger then it was his last fights and his upper body still looks wide. His arms however do look slimmer.

He most certainly did. I was surprised that he was able to move like that. yeah i thought he would be much more stationary, he moved pretty well there, seemed like he was more coordinated then the smaller guy.

Is it just me or does Vitali seem much more quick and agile here than he did as a boxer?

....Good stuff!!! That dude was the Asian Rocky for sure. He took one hell of a beating and kept coming back. Man was Vit skinny in that video or what? The Vitali used steroids crew is gonna jump on this as evidence that Vit got on the juice to bulk up. :rolleyes:

so this finally made it to youtube. this is from the video perfect 4, in 1993.

Lol that second video with vitaly belongs in the world most one sided fistfights,Vitaly was wailing on the guy with roundhouses and shit. And shit? It was like all roundhouses with the exception of like 4 kicks lol. Reminded me of a bruce lee quote: I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who threw once kick 10,000 times. Until the end of the second round I really thought he was only gonna throw roundhouses.

Am I the only one who laughed at the guy announcing in the first vid. :o

Vitali sacrificed his pro boxing career because of kick boxing. He hurt his chance's of making millions in boxing.
