    would viali klitschko be the best k-1 fighter if he fought there?

    after watching briggs ktfo that dude from mma in k1 i wondered how other boxers would do.

    vitali used to do kickboxing so i think he'd do great, he has an iron jaw too and is awkwardly tall.

    vitali klitschko vs semmy schlit k1?

    Tom Erikson started out as a wrestler. A legit Kickboxer like Remy Bonjansky puts the hurting on both Briggs and Vitali.

      Bojansky came within 2 seconds of losing badly to an old, fat Francois Botha, who got drilled by Lewis easily even in his prime.
      so....I doubt it.

      and if Semmy Schilt can lose to someone as unskilled as Hong Man Choi(who doesnt even kick), I dont see why he wouldnt lose to Valuev.

        i'd agree with mma fighters beating boxers at mma but k-1 fighters only have kicks, boxers would destroy k1 fighters in fighting with fists and vitali is a former kickboxer.

        the only reason vitali fights boxing is because there's more money, lets be honest. if freaks of nature like hong man choi can become good at k1 just because of his size and bob sapp too, why cant vitali who is huge and skilled?

            Maybe people dont know this but Vitali WAS a pro kickboxer before he went to boxing.

            He actually CAN kick.

              I heard Vitali got KTFO by a kick to the head in one of his fights, but he denied it saying he lost due to an injury.

                Probably. I saw video of his kickboxing match and he had a nice arsenal of kicks, add to that his size, chin, and he would have the best hands in K1.
