Vitali Would beat any HW in history

[check hook]

Vitali wouldn't last more than 6 rounds, against a prime Tyson. I would bet on a Vitali win, only against the overrated Lennox.

I agree with the first part....his chin is right there to be hit....Tyson's speed, pressure and style would murder both Klits. I still say Lennox beats Vitali in a close fight.....just feel he was out of shape in the fight they actually had and that he is also a bit smarter.

[The Kop]

Yup. He'd beat Ali, Frazier, Tyson, prime Holyfield, Bowe, Foreman, Lewis (he was winning until they had to stop it due to the cut), Louis would get KO'ed, Marciano would lose too, along with Jack Johnson and Dempsey.

That's not saying he's BETTER than Ali, he just uses his size and reach so effectively, he actually has a lot of skill too!!

Hell no.

Prime Ali, Holyfield, Bowe all beat him. Prime Lennox takes Vitali's soul..

Shot, old past prime Lennox almost took Vitali's eye.

[Mr. Philadel]

Vitali gets a pass around here while Wlad gets bashed....I hate that!!...Vitali didn't knock Shannon down or out....he beat the dog **** outta a shot fighter.....he injured a shot fighter....but he didnt knock him down or out....but he STILL gets a pass, because ppl are sayin' the corner was SUPPOSED to stop it.....why should the corner stop a fight when the dude with the highest KO pct in history is droppin' bombs....**** the corner, Vitali was SUPPOSED to put Briggs to sleep....Peter was shot and Wlad put his ass to sleep but got bashed on here...GTFOH, then Vitali does his thing and gets honored like he the ****in GOAT of the HW division....GTFOH!!!....Wlad would smoke big bro outta his boots....yea I said it!!.....Wlad Klitschko got NOW....it dont matter who had it before...props to Mike, Ali, Larry, Smokin Joe, Big George and those dudes....but right NOW its the K2 era and lil bro deserves more respect from the general public...just sayin!!

No way...he would be competitive with any of them, sure. Ali would ud vitali, it would be competitive but ali right hand and jab are too fast. He would run that **** up the middle all night, and it could even end up like the lewis fight, getting stopped on cuts.

Prime lewis would beat vitali 9 out of 10, bowe would beat him, and a prime holyfield in my opinion. You klitchko fans need to go back and watch video of these top guys in the 90's. They were complete fighters.

[Boss Don]

Vitali beats Shannon Briggs now he can beat any HW in history GTFOH!!

[Syf]

lol what have boxing fans come to? You are dreaming...Prime Ali.. pre boxing ban... Completely schools and embarasses either Klitschko..

If Lewis's comparatively (To prime Ali) slow and flatfooted ass could tear Vitali up like he did.. Ali would dance and shuffle and find angles on Vitali all night.. While staying mobile and at range when he wants to..picking his shots. He also throws his KO punch that ends Vitali off the back foot like he did against Cleveland Williams

[ILLuminato]

Ken Norton could be fighting now and he would look like the GOAT. The Klitschkos are fighting the worst opposition in HW history and would get beat down by a lot of the ATGs from the past

And a lot of people said Norton BEAT ALI!!! COme on now, Klitschko definitely beats Ali, Ali has problems with guys taller than him

He deserves all of the respect in the world for doing what he did in his era but in all honesty whenever I watch old vids of him I am left unimpressed with anything other than his reflexes.

I just don't see what he has which makes so many give him and edge in a FF with either Klitschko, Lennox, Holyfield, or very young Tyson.

[El Fenomeno]

The argument for Vitali winning on the scorecards vs Lennox is just silly. Did you SEE his face after 6 rounds? There's no way he would've lasted 12 rounds and even if by some miracle he survived he would've lost in a lopsided points decision. That beating was from an old, out of prime Lennox. Imagine what him and several other prime HW's would do to the Klits
