Golota was a much better fighter than Vitali is. Vitali would not have ever been beating a prime Bowe. People forget that Golota was easily winning both fights. Who the hell has Vitali ever beat? His biggest claim to fame is a close loss to Lennox Lewis. He rocked Lewis, but Lewis took Vitali's best shots and kept coming. Lewis stopped Vitali, fair and square. If Vitali is Mr.Wizard science fag, why didn't he figure out how to cut Lewis so badly for a TKO? People try saying it was an early stoppage, but the cut was bad enough and it was a good stoppage. However I do wish it would have gone another round or so, because Lewis was OBVIOUSLY on his way to knocking Vitali out.
Who has Golota ever beat?? You are an idiot. As soon as you tell me a single legitimate HW that Golota has beaten soundly, your point will be taken. Idiot. Golota is a joke and is extremely overrated from 2 foul plagued fights with Bowe, which he LOST!
All of these reports seem to be coming from the Rahman camp. Think about it guys..... Even if there is some truth to it, im sure that we are not being told the story straight. Such as Vitali's hurt leg had lots do to with it. Regardless, what the hell gives china chinned Rahman the right to berate someones chin. Remember what Maskaev did to him?? zzzzzzzzz.
Masterdirector moron says:
dumbass, Rahman ran him into retirement b/c he didn't have any real injuries. He was too scared to fight Rahman. So, once he couldn't weasel out of fighting Rahman, he figured he'd take the easy way out and just quit because he had to fight Rahman or lose the title. Without the title, he was shit. Hell, he was shit with the title. Look at that hilarious PPV figure. Imagine if he can't claim he's a champion and fights some other Corrie Sanders level bum. Nobody could sell that.
No real injuries?? Oh I guess that he was just in surgery for repairs to his ACL for the hell of it. Just for kicks. You are suck a moron.
Afraid of Rahman?? Why?? And why would he even sign with a fight for Rahman if he was so scared??? LOL you are such an idiot.. Yeah I am sure that watching Rahmans last fight against Barrett has Vitali quivering at the knees.
I've seen the guy fight. Im not saying that he is sure to be a HOF er, but the kid definately has the tools. He is very quick, great power and excellent movement. He doesnt fight in the typical stiff euro style. He has good head movement and likes to swarm his opponents. The one quality that I do like in this guy is his attitude. I hate to sound cliche, but he does have the "eye of the tiger". Reminiscent of a young Tyson. The guy definately fights his opponents like they stole something from him. Hes mean.
Just remember, hes only 19. let him mature and grow a little bit, and Im sure hell be great.
At 6'1 215 lbs currently. Im sure he'll eventually be the perfect size.
