      the heavyweight bout drew 14 Million people following it on RTL!
      thats a Klitschko TV-record.

      BTW I want to mention 3 very impressive 1st round KOs:

      -David Lemieux KO1 Hector Camacho Jr

      -Leonardo Zappavigna KO1 Ji Hoon Kim

      - Luis Concepcion KO1 Denkaosan Kaovichit
      Damn those were some hard shots Kim took. I just watched that now that you mentioned it, when was this Saturday?

        yeah in Australia for an IBF eliminator.

        I kinda think Kim took it on short notice (2 months after he lost his last fight), but that guy Zappa looked very sharp and focused.

          you have to bump this thread one more time later to find a winner, but shame you left Vitalis beat down out which everybody was talking about.
          You're right about Roman Gonzalez, he should be in the poll instead of N'Jikam.

          But I was right to not include Vitali. Consider that Briggs was not in the BoxRec top 50 HWs. I've watched all of Vitali's fights many times, and that fight with Shannon honestly wasn't one of his better performances.

          I left another great fighter who fought in October out of the poll for the same reason: Pongsaklek Wonjongkam.

            I only picked G. Jones because after the long layoff I expected him to lose.

                Pong Wong's opponent was better than Briggs.

                I hate to say it, but Vitali showed his age by not being able to knock Briggs down as he promised he would do.

                Prime Vitali would have destroyed Briggs and Sosnowski inside six rounds.

                  Briggs> the guy who gave old and maybe faded Wong hell.

                  we really dont know if prime Vitali would have KOed a PRIME briggs.

                  its fantasy fight section, but just to focus on that performances, take a look at the scorecards and esp. the Event for him and boxing he should be awarded the boxer of the month.

                  even though it wasnt a WAR and a FOTY canidate Vitali 39 showed hes one of the best heavyweights.

                    Well, probably Vitali sould be in the poll instead of N'Jikam.

                    I tried to not be biased and to not include my own favorite fighters over other deserving ones, but I perhaps went too far with that.
