Why Is CORBETT Way Better Than Vitali KLITSCHKO ??... How Come Corbett Ko's Vitali ??I don't know why the modern Heavyweights have DEVOLVED so far from the great Corbett, I was gonna Have this fight between JEFFRIES and vitali, but of course, I wouldn't want vitali to get killed by JEFF.:poke:
James J corbett wouldnt even be a contender.
Jack Dempsey, John L Sullivan, any heavyweight champion before 1930 can eat a s!ck dick...shouldnt even be in the hall of fame...Jack Johnson fought the best blacks, whites and who ever of his day
.people talking about fighters today ducking one fighter but these fools avoided an entire race....Peter Jackson would have kicked Sullivans ass just like Sam Langford, Harry Wills, George Godfrey, wouldve given Dempsey hell.
James J jeffries.....eat one...
Gene Tunney...eat a fat one
Obvious troll post, Corbett is too small and weak chinned to beat someone like Vitali.
yes and Yes... you are right on both points, but this and couple other threads were responses to an idiot poster we used to have so you do not have the context to see the humour in it. Corbett does deserve a place in history though, he proved against Sullivan that with gloves and no wrestling holds boxing needed a different type of fighter but Vitali is too big and also has benefitted from what Corbett passed down through the generations

Not that I agree with Corbett beating Vitali (obviously a joke) but his footwork, head movement and jabbing were basically his best attributes.
It was a totally tongue in cheek thread.... yes
Troll thread.
James J Corbett wouldn't do **** all. He lost just about every meaningful fight he ever had.
How would he of got in range? His feet was awfully slow, he had no head movement & no jab. Vitali would DESTROY Corbett with ease as would any half decent H/W of today.
I accept the tread is a half jest, but I wanted to see how many here know anything about guys like Corbett, you don't seem to know much about Jim. this quote for instance, James J Corbett wouldn't do **** all. He lost just about every meaningful fight he ever had. ---- That is simply not true, Choynski twice, Mitchell,.. Sullivan for a start... were fights he won, he even beat Choynski with normal gloves while Choynski wore skin tight leather gloves with seams across the knuckles, which cut Corbett every time he got hit. and the fight was held on a barge floating on water. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ You just need to read up....... I admit that the Klitschko's would beat Corbett through pure height and weight,... but seriously, P4P Corbett is the better and tougher and fitter fighter...... this thread is also about other divisions... there were more great boxers among the old-timers then there are now.
