Vitali is one of the best HW of all time

Vitali
Wlad
Lewis

So what if he dominated Byrd? Newsflash, Byrd wasn't even that good! What makes a fighter great as opposed to good is the ability to overcome adversity more than anything else. 1) Vitali has never overcome adversity. He's quit. 2) He's never won over anyone who he was considered an underdog against.

It is downright criminal to say Vitali is top 3 of all times. You ask if i'm mad or if I just hate them? My question would be, 1) Are you sure it's not just your love for him that clouds your judgement? and 2) How long have you actually followed boxing? No one other than a stage 1 nuthugger would even dream of thinking of saying Vitali is in the top 3 of all times. It's ludicrous and makes me question how much you understand about the sport of boxing.



Winning comfortably against Lewis? Would 'trounce' any heavyweight in any era? Wow, the klit nuthuggers get worse by the day. But I do remember you saying Wlad is the greatest of all times and he's best P4P in the world. So i'm used to laughing at these posts by now.

Dude, I can't argue with you if you are trash talking. Your posts show your education level which is quite frankly poor...

Boy Lewis got lucky.

Tell me how much heart Vittles showed against Byrd? He hurt his shoulder in the 8th and quit in the 9th of a fight he was up on the cards and against a soft hitting opponent. This isn't provocation, this is a fact.

Yeah, Lewis looked like he was getting lucky in the 5th and 6th rounds landing repeatedly with the harder more effective punches.

And by the way...it's write, not wright.

His trainer obliged him to quit. Would you really think that an ATG would never quit with a torn ligament? Name me one.

By the way, I speak up to 4 languages so excuse my mistakes.

Larry Holmes fought a 15 round war with Norton in a fight that came down to the last round and never thought of quitting. Ali fought with a broken jaw. There are hundreds of examples. What makes Vits quit job a disgrace is he could have won without throwing another punch against a guy who couldn't crack an egg. This is the problem with Klit fans, you excuse his quitting against a non threat, but claim he was robbed against Lewis and should have been given a rematch.

And it wasn;t his trainer who obliged him to quit, it was solely Vits decision. "We're quitting, it hurts to much". -Vitaly Klitschko at the end of the 9th

Man, if Vitali beat Lennox, I think everyone would be thinking differently. It's crazy how one fight can define your career. If vitali was able to beat lewis, I think people would be discussing him as an ATG. Instead, people use the Lewis fight to insinuate that he's never beaten an elite opponent. There's an arguement for that. People look at his resume and they see the losses to Lewis and Byrd (a pretty small HW)

And yes I know his two losses were due to injuries. But a L is an L. The expectations are high if you want to be an ATG.

Beating a semi-retired Lennox Lewis wouldn't change a thing. It would be like Holmes over Ali. But it just goes to show how great he is when a fat and out of shape Lennox still managed to smash his a vintage Vitali's face to bits and stop him.

Dude, I can't argue with you if you are trash talking. Your posts show your education level which is quite frankly poor...

Trash talking? I am asking a simple question. Or are you just too uncomfortable answering that you resort to taking swipes at my education level, which quite frankly, you don't know anything about?

The mere fact that you say Vitali 'would have' beaten this and that guy, and 'if' this and that had not happened he 'would have been' considered great etc just shows that you don't know how to classify a great fighter and quite frankly, don't know much about boxing. I'm not taking a swipe at you personally, just stating some facts. If you disagree, state your case and convince us that what he's done in his career is greater than what the best did.

And btw, here's a list of people I personally rank higher than Vitali:

Lewis, Louis, Johnson, Ali, Holmes, Liston, Dempsey, Charles, JJ Walcott, Marciano, Wills, Patterson, Tunney, Frazier, Holyfield, Foreman, Tyson, Langford, Jeffries, W. Klitschko, Hell, you could even add Jeanette, Norton, Scmeling, Braddock to that list.

I think that's about 20 guys I'd rank higher than Vitali at this particular time. If you disagree please say so and why.

And please, do not say "Vitali would have beaten" because 'would have' are not words in the boxing dictionary.

Vitali Klitschko vs Lennox Lewis

THE TRUTH

Vitali took the fight on just 10 days notice.

Vitali was clearly winning the fight 4-2 on all 3 scorecards at the time of the controversial doctor stoppage. Lewis barely survived the 2nd round and almost got KO'd, he was badly hurt, holding on for dear life, wobbling everywhere and staggering around the ring like a drunk. Lewis was badly hurt several times in the fight and was getting outboxed, outworked, outmuscled and outlanded by Vitali.

punches landed

Vitali 156

Lewis 102


Lewis was exhausted, worn down and hurt from the accumulation of punches and was ready to get KTFO again, he collapsed onto his stool at the end of the 6th round, Vitali was clearly the fresher of the two, he was a man on a mission and would've KO'd Lewis for sure if the fight had continued.

After the fight, Vitali intimidated the **** out of Lewis and made him look like a *****.

All the fans at Staples Center cheered for Vitali and booed Lewis after the fight.

Lewis promised Vitali a rematch.

Vitali destroyed Kirk Johnson in 2 rounds and called out Lewis again in the post fight interview. The scared Lewis retired shortly after that fight.

Lewis turned down 40 million dollars for a rematch and retired like a coward because he knew he would get destroyed by Vitali.

Vitali dominated Lewis and scared his ***** ass into retirement.

George Foreman: "Vitali was winning the fight. Lewis got lucky. There has to be a rematch!"

Jim Lampley: "A lucky escape for Lewis who was clearly losing the fight"

Even Emanuel Steward was upset and pissed off at Lewis for blatantly ducking a Vitali rematch.

Lewis is scared to death of Vitali.
