I want to say Sanders. That guy took a beating unlike anything that has been seen and he kept coming forward trying to land punches.

I agree with you, I would have to say Sanders

Wasn't Lennox Lewis four fights ago?

If so, this is a silly question.

Let's count....>Williams on Sat, before that Sanders, before that Johnson, before that Lennox right?

Lennox Lewis was the only guy he's fought in the last 4 that wasn't a straight-up bum.

i dont agree with that mnate but i dont like the term bum, maybe werent the highest of standard but you dont get off the floor 4 times if your a bum you roll over and capitulate.

Sanders was just ageing, Johnson well he was in the mix, though tell you what maybe you got a point there....

Its a shame really that a straight-up bum dominated your beloved Rahman basically their whole fight until a combination of Rahman landing a good punch and Sanders fatigue ended the fight. What does that say about Rahman then?

Did you see the thread where I said if VK can legitimately KO Rahman I'll give you and Nautilus both a million points?

I want to see VK be the guy everyone has already made him.

That Sanders fight was 2000. From then to 2004 (and really the year before when he fought Wlad), Sanders spent most of his time on the golf course and eating boxes of Hostess snack cakes, it appears.

Also the fact he was fatigued just barely over halfway into the fight says that he's conditioned about like the Klitschkos.

....Rahman is a one punch wonder that sucks IMO. He got lucky one time over Lennox and that's it. Lennox crushed him in the rematch, Holly beat the crap out of him while in his decline. Maskaev nearly killed him when he knocked him out so hard he went right through the announces table outside the ring, lost to the lowly and disgraceful Ruiz, Got whipped once by Tua and got a draw the second time, and got lucky against Sanders who also nearly decapitated him. Rahman's claim to fame is a one punch knockout of Lewis. Vitali would dispose of him within 3 or 4 rounds.
