When Brewster turned the fight around vs Wlad

[neils7147933]

I think Vitali would KO his brother.

if you could get them to fight, probably...

[neils7147933]

Wlad has a glass chin?

OKAY!

Sanders could have dropped anyone with that clear left... so that does not prove anything yet.


Look on that gif again...
It took Brewster how many clean shots to drop a gassed out, barely on his feet Wlad. Something that dropped Golota instantly!
And Brewster is not a light hitter.

I'm not saying he does, or doesn't have a bad chin.. I'm saying it remains to be seen. Peter is a perfect test for it!

I don't know that Peter will be able to hit him...

Fr that matter Rahman has no chin... look at my gif. And look how Leis dropped him unconscious, etc

In HW this is what you can expect...

I'm just saying that he was stunned by the shots he took from Sanders, but not to the point that he couldn't get up and continue. IMO his problem is that he didn't take a minute to get himself back together before trying to jump right back on Sanders. Sanders has very good power, and I don't believe Wlad's chin is made of porcelain. I don't believe he has serious stamina issues either. He's a big, tall guy, and he's not going to have Joe Louis-like stamina. I'm not saying his chin is made of granite, but to me it isn't as bad as people make it out to be. If anything is his problem, it's his lack of head movement, and his ability to keep his opponents from continuing to land shots to his head when he's been nailed.

Lewis didn't have a great chin, but he only got KO'd twice. A good chin isn't mandatory if you can avoid taking shots like the one in Bozo's gif...

Only because Vitali's chin is made of granite. I dont see anyone knocking him out and he certanly has the power to KO Wlad out, who I think has a chin that is far from granite, but not porcelain either.

Rahman's KO of Lewis in the first fight was more devastating to me.

I think of it as a dream fight for Wlad... Life/Death situation.

It will either kill, or resurrect him
Well, lets see what happens...

That's kind of why I said if anything, it's his apparent inability to get out of harm's way when he's been nailed.
You have to admit though, Lewis got lucky a few times and got his man out of there when he himself was in trouble, a couple of those fights could have easily gone the other way, as reckless as he fought when he was younger.

I'm not sold on Peter yet, but HBO apparently is, so they'll act like Wlad is a top 5 guy if he beats him...

That's another reason why I don't buy the "Vitali would have beat Lewis if the fight continued" arguments. I think his time for the KO had passed by the time Round 6 came around...
