heavyweights in history who wouldve beaten vitali tonight

[Fulcrum29]

im taking prime version of all fighters.... anyone under 6'4 NO
lennox no, tyson, holyfield, bowe, holmes, ali, frazier, louis, all the old champs pre 1950.
only fighter id give a shot to is big george.... what about you guys?

He's 38 son try picking heavyweights who can beat him in his prime. No matter how good he looked tonight he's still WAAAY slower and has less stamina than he used to. You probably never watched him box before I'd suggest download some of his earlier fights he was a BEAST.

Lennox Lewis would easily KO him AGAIN

[BEEHOP]

Vitali lost to lewis. haha. and Lewis came in fatter than CHRIS!

[Porter's Dad]

i dont understand how any of you think holyfield would get remotely close to vitali arreola is 6 4 and he couldnt holyfield is 6 1 or so... hed get annhilated worse than any others mentioned here imo

Let's see; speed, in and out movement, chin, ring smarts.

[iHateThePacMan]

Wladimir Klitschko would definately beat his ass. im sure of it

[Inthewhitegirls]

Holyfield would have the same troubles as Chris did tonight, he wouldn't be able to get in and all his skill and power would be nullified I think. He would just get picked apart to a late Tko or decision.

I could possibly see Tyson winning by KO if Vitali was foolish enough to fight with his hands down which he probably would.

Foreman would probably win.

Ali would win.

Lewis would probably win.

Other than that, I don't see to many others doing it.

[Klitschko2011]

Lennox Lewis would easily KO him AGAIN

****** racist black boy

here's the truth:

Vitali was clearly winning the fight 4-2 on all 3 scorecards. Lewis was badly hurt and was staggering around the ring like a drunk, he barely survived the 2nd round, was getting outlanded and was hurt again later in the fight.

punches landed

Vitali 156

Lewis 102

Lewis was exhausted and worn down from the accumulation of punches, he collapsed onto his stool at the end of the 6th round, Vitali was the fresher of the two, he was a man on a mission that night and would've KO'd Lewis if the fight had continued.

All 20,000 fans at Staples Center cheered for Vitali and boo'd Lewis after the fight. Vitali was the real winner of that fight, he battered Lewis into retirement.

Lewis promised Vitali a rematch

Vitali destroyed Johnson in 2 and the scared Lewis retired like a coward shortly after that fight.

Lewis turned down 25 million dollars for a rematch and retired like a coward because he knew Vitali would destroy him and tarnish his legacy.

I always had a hard time picturing how many of the older smaller HWs could really compete with the K-bros prime for prime.....ppl on here tend to get too nostalgic and start obscuring reality when comparing modern HW with ones from the past who would really be CWs by modern standards.

[billionaire]

prime holyfield would never get ko'd......everyone is getting carried away the same thing happened last week with mayweather rankings.......

[77Ritchie77]

ive seen all his fights
tonight was technically his best fight
defense wise he was perfect as arreola said he threw when he should moved when he should, arreola threw like 33 punches a round he normally throws 80 or so. he landed 6 power punches after 4 rounds. floyd cant touch that either can vitali in earlier fights.

arreola had all that you said about holyfield. so did jc gomez. holyfield has no hope getting in range on vitali.
lennox would not beat the technically perfect fighter that vitali wsa tonight
earlier in his career he carelessly brawled. now he brawls and throws while the other guy watches and misses.
