Getting inside of Vitaly

[tri4ben2]

How good is Vitaly's jab at keeping off smaller fighters compared to Foreman and Lennox Lewis?

There are other tall heavyweights that I don't think could keep Frazier away, like Akawande and Grant, but Vitaly has been jabbing while backing up so well lately, that I can't see how a guy that small 5'11 210 can pressure Vitally all night. I think Frazier would have his moments, but enough to win the fight? It is doubtful.

In 2005, we may see Toney take a shot at it. Toney may very well be the pound 4 pound best heavyweight, but but Toney needs to have more height if he is really going to have a shot at breaking down Vitaly. And lifting a huge amount of weights to get to 225 is not going to cut it. Also, if Toney shows up at more than 230, the VK haters are going to have a feild day with the "If Toney wasn't such a fatsas" threads.

Is there anybody here that was around when Frazier was fighting that can shed some light onto this subject.

Frazier, Ali, Foreman, Louis...
they can all say that they'd whoop VK... and I'm sure that's what they tell their buddies at the Barber Shop. They'd HAVE to to save face. White fighters aren't supposed to be HW champs.
Most of them Probably COULD beat VK, I'm not arguing that.

one funny thing to note:
for those that remember.. when VK fought LL.. George Foreman was commentating... he said "if Vitali wins, I'm coming back to boxing"

well VK didn't win, but then after he did, COME BACK GEORGE..
na, I don't want to see him get hurt. Just like LL, they have made their mark in History, why push it?
