[QUOTE=Ivich;n31954583]Taking a leaf out of Dr Z's comic book where about once a week he tells every one Gun Boat Smith tkod Jack Johnson in sparring,he didn't Johnson sparred with another 3 spar mates that same after noon and you cannot be tkod in sparring anyway.
Both Travis Walker and Raphael Butler knocked Vitali Klitschko down in sparring yet neither got a title shot against him,why not? Walker dropped Vitali with a body shot and the next day Butler dropped him with a shot to the chin.Yet Vitali never fought either?[/QUOTE
ANYONE fool can list the ranked contenders ( Ring magazine top ) which are active in a fighters career. There are a lot of them. It does not mean he avoided them! VK as champion from 1999-2000 in the WBO and 2004 - 2012 in the WBC . If he missed so and so I say who are they, where they ranked, what is their record, was the fight in demand and was Vitali healthy enough . Questions which you will most certainly duck
But did Vital ever drop a belt to avoid a contender? That would be no.
I never saw any video of the knockdowns or Vitali speak about it.. Where is it ? You don't have it. Were Walker and Butler ever ranked? That would be no. Walker ended up 39-14-1 being knocked out 10 times and being KO'd by Vitali Ko victims that were ranked.
Butler ended up 35 and 12 being Ko'd 7 times and was also stopped by guys Vitali stopped.
Keep in mind if the knockdown did happen, so what . VK was coming off injuries. VK must have spared 1,000 or rounds. Surely he was down once in sparring. This was not an exhibition or a real fight. Nor were Raphel and Butler ever ranked, they were lesser men than Vitali had fought and would rate as Vitali worst opponent if he had fought them then from a ring record standpoint since at least 1999. To suggest Vitali avoided them is laughable even for your extreme hating standards.


Vitali is one of two champions in heavyweights never to be floored. That is the history.
