    I think he's referring to the nuthuggers in NSB who's assertion (before this fight) was that even a 40 old Vitaly would destroy the best versions of Tyson, Frazier, Louis, Liston etc. Before today, many were saying Vitaly was still prime and in the best shape of his career.

      I've noticed a steady decline in Vitali for about 2 years now. That's why I thought that Adamek might outhustle him last year. Vitali has always been a master at dictating the pace and the distance between him and his opponent. Now that is dissolving as well. Any of those names you listed beat today's Vitali pretty handily. The only question is if it goes the distance.

        arreola just got rocked by a right hand and then knocked his guy down for a ten count almost immediately.


        pretty badass
        he's flawed but he's a lot of fun to watch

          Pissed I missed it, post fight comments were golden from what I'm reading in NSB as well.

          What a night for boxing! Here's hoping the Williams fight etc stacks up.

            followed up by a huge upset

            evidently jrosales13's fighter (he's 4-5 now,) just beat alfonzo lopez (the guy who kelly pavlik fought last.)

            dropped him like a sack of potatoes in the mid-early rounds
            scored a UD

            cong****, Jro

              You're not going to beat Arreola without a solid chin. His power is legit.

                boxing always gives us plenty to talk about just when you think you're running out of stuff to discuss

                    don king clearly brought those two judges along for this very purpose

                    i hope the guy who had cloud ahead by 4 had no intention of ever getting another shot at a world title fight
