      I saw him get hit clean in his last fight and that lasted one round. He's quite hittable, not like he's some defensive wizard. Vitali is very, very overrated for some reason. I can't think of an impressive win on his dossier yet you'd think he's a HOF'er.

        you cant knock a guy for fighting in a bad era
        and i'll bet my car that he's eventually getting into the HOF, barring disaster.

        soils did hit him more cleanly than he has gotten clocked in the past

        but generally he's a very sound ring general once he gets going, and when you're that tall it's not easy to hit somebody like that
        sanders did make him run a bit, but that's courtesy of one of the hardest straight left hands ever thrown
        but otherwise he's usually dictating the location and distance of the fight


        he's rarely hit flush
        you're biased if you honestly believe he's getting tagged flush constantly in his fights

        maybe if he fought in a better era he would get hit more often
        in fact i'd bet my car on that too
        but he's six seven and fights that way
        he's not easy to hit.


        if he were he'd make for better american television

          Who has he beat to earn a place in the HOF ?.
          He lost to the 2 best boxers he faced and his ''reign'' is sub par at best, he's border HOF. Wlad however is a cert.

            the best of an awful bunch

            well most of them anyway.


            i dont vote guys in to the hall of fame
            i'm just going off of what i've heard about the opinions of those that do


            and if you want an '03 wrx with 100k plus miles i'm betting it that vitali klitschko eventually get into the hall of fame. ^^


            and if you want my opinion
            i think he's a hall of famer but he's going to need a light year to get in

              Because it was slow and telegraphed and he looped it a lot.

                He gets hit plenty - pretty much by everyone he's faced. His best win is like Chris Arreola or something. Simply put, he's not a HOF'er and aside from a valiant performance in a loss, he's beaten no one of note.

                  And he landed it on pretty much everyone - and pretty much everyone lands on Vitali. Vitali should beat the ancient version of George - I see his chin holding up but not his skin.

                    Vitali has done nothing to be in the HOF. He isn't even the best of his era, his brother is. Funny how you say Vitali beat the best of a bad bunch yet his brother's resume craps all over his.

                      So why didn't he KO china chinned Morrison then?

                      Like I said, I concede that Vit's face might not hold up. But it'll be because of multiple jabs, not a right hand. The type of overhand right that Lennox landed that opened the cut would not land from Foreman, not unless Vitali was totally sleeping or was stunned.
