A lot of you guys are giving Vitali way too much credit for this fight. Arreola is a decent fighter in this era but is very limited in his abilities, you could see that last night. Vitali is good but he would have had a very hard time with a fighter that moved his head a lot like Frazier and Tyson. Both of them would have been much more effective on the inside with their speed, especially Tyson. No doubt it would be tough to land against the taller Vitali, but his awkwardness would be a great disadvantage against a fast skilled fighter. The only Fighters I see beating Vitali are, Tyson, Frazier (maybe), Lewis, Ali, Holmes, and probably Holyfield. And another thing, Tyson beat him self, not Douglas. Douglas was only good for one fight because his mother died. Vitali would have no problem with him. OK enough of my rant. lol

Lets see what a leaner Toney can do these days.Comment

You should get real. He doesn't have the résumé to be considered an ATG. If he hadn't been injured for four years of his prime, or if he hadn't started his career when he was 25, or if he hadn't been in a such a historically weak division, maybe he'd have made it. But with all three of those factors, no chance. He's running out of time, and there are no hall of famers coming up for him to fight before he retires (unless Haye surprises everyone).
And claiming that he beat Lewis is ridiculous. It was a valid stoppage. The cut wasn't caused by a foul, it was caused by a legal punch. It was every bit as valid a win as if he'd been knocked cold.
It appears we have a different view of things. I'm talking about the fighter, not whom he faced. He dominated/KO'd what was available. He's a bigger, more athletic Foreman. How many could stand up to that too well?Comment

That was single-handedly the worst HW fight all year. Both men looked like utter ****, and I'm left thinking "THAT is the man they call the biggest badass in boxing? Give me a fucking break!"
Vitali a badass - my ass, I say.Comment

Ok, it appears I got that one wrong. He did put him down though. And Frazier did win the first fight.Frazier (not Frasier) never stopped Ali! Get your facts right if you're going to try to sound knowledgeable about boxing history! Their first two fights went the distance - and the second was an easy UD in Ali's favour. The third was stopped when Futch pulled Frazier out after the 14th round.Comment

Are you judging Frazier from the Foreman fights? Foreman is an all time great. Vitaly is not. Who has Vitaly fought that was as good as Joe? I guess you missed the Buster Mathis fight. Buster was tall with Power. Joe KO'd him.Comment
