    You're obviously not going to be a fan of Vitali, no matter who he beats, so this particular discussion with you is kind of pointless. I've seen some of the posts you've made in other threads (and this one) "talentless" is about the best you've called him, and I think you used the term "Bum" a few weeks ago, before the Peter fight. Not sure why his performance against Samuel didn't move your opinion at least a little, but if that didn't, then I certainly won't have any luck myself.

    The only question I have is....why bother chasing threads all over this forum about a fighter you obviously cannot stand?

      No it cant be, We all are racist because we refuse to bow down for the Klits according to Tunney the Looney..

      I seem to remember how people didnt like Lewis because of his jabbing style, This had nothing to do with nationality/race or whatever.

        You're one of the Klit fan that i like discussing with, You make valid points about them and reason with other if there arguement is reasonable, I wish there are more klits fans like you.

          Well he was beating Byrd, until his shoulder went, and him and Lewis was a war, but when the cut stoppage came Vitali was ahead on all 3 score cards, but Lewis did look like he was gaing momentum in the fight.

            I see the Klitschkos for what they are, two big strong men who were lucky enough to encounter the heavyweight division during one of its weaker periods. To their credit they have been very professional in a time where few in the sport have a high degree of professionalism. They have also been good at popularizing the sport in Eastern Europe. On balance they have been good for boxing. Nevertheless, just because they have been good for boxing does not mean they are great fighters. If Dave Haye and Alexander Povetkin live up to their promise you will soon see how good the Klitschkos really are. You will also see the boneheads in this forum start proclaiming the Klitschkos to have been "exposed."

                And Lewis had a 4" reach advantage over Vitali.

                I think Vitali would have won a rematch, he would have figured out a better way to fight Lewis. I thought Vitali landed the better punches and would have won if not for the cuts, but his strategy in the Lewis fight was wrong - he should have been a bit more more cautious.

                  He was doing all the right things in their fight so i doubt he would have done anything different, He didnt need to do anything different anyway...

                    The big Klit never was, and never will be on Lewis's level.
                    Im glad someone finally agrees with me on that. Vitali is a good fighter too, but lets not go overboard. I think Lennox wouldve crushed Vitali in the next few rounds. And lets not forget who trains Lennox, the one and only legendry trainer Emanual Steward, which is always a plus to have in your corner.
