Technically its true that he lost to Byrd and Lewix and those 2 guys were arguably the best 2 fighters on his resume but from actually watching those fights you have to read between the lines and see that those losses were not because he was dominated or not the better fighter.
Is Vitali unbeatable?

Yes, just like Lewis's knockout losses were legit.But, Lewis did open cut, and the fight was stop and he lost.
Excuses out the window he lost.
And, he has 2 losses to the best fighter he has faced. That is all there is to it. It would be one thing if those losses were robberies. But, they weren't they were legit losses. Were they not?Comment

Fair enough, but he does have legit losses so to say he is unbeatable is nonsense.Technically its true that he lost to Byrd and Lewix and those 2 guys were arguably the best 2 fighters on his resume but from actually watching those fights you have to read between the lines and see that those losses were not because he was dominated or not the better fighter.
Damn right, is anybody saying different?Comment

Whats dubious about vitali quitting in his corner against chris byrd? Other than a ko,I cant think of a more decisive victory.Not byrds fault Vitali didnt want anymore.
These klit lickers are hilarious post-fight.They fight some outmatched opponent,dominate them in boring fashion and somehow theyre the greatest all of a sudden.Vitali needs to go fight someone with a pulse before we start ranking him up there.His legacy will always be losing to a rusty,well past it,out of shape Lewis.Comment

Yea I see what you're saying but who else should he be fighting? Him and Wladimir have fought just about everyone at or near the top.Comment

Can we stop talking about Wladimir and Vitali as if they're one person? They aren't. Wlad is thisclose to being a HOF'er. Vitali is just another champ.Comment

Haha and those near the top are rubbish so what does winning really mean on face value very little , this is worst era for HWs in history , beating bums and washed up fighters is not a stamp of greatness , 12 rds with a washed up Briggs who was average even at his best lol , man what the truly great HWs in history would do to them .Comment

Past prime lewis beats a past prime vitali imo.'a prime lewis beats a prime vitali 7/10. Both gve trouble to every hw atgTechnically it is a loss but imo there is a difference in losing a fight like the way he did to Byrd and being beaten by the better man. Im not sold on the Lewis being past prime theory either his last fight was about a year earlier but he dominated and he didnt fight after the Vitaly fight to show that his skills were eroded. Maybe he just ran into a guy who made him look bad and if he would have continued to fight lesser guys he may have maintained his dominance.Comment
