Comments Thread For: Vitali: Haye is Too Light, He's Not a Real Heavyweight

[AntDawg]

Shannon Briggs said Vitali hit harder than anyone he's faced, including Lennox Lewis. "Vitali hit CRAZY hard" is the direct quote.

And I would say Wlad is a the harder puncher of the two, Vitali being an accumulation KO artist.

Both brothers are among the hardest punchers in HW boxing history, as the numbers prove.

Level of opponents below some champions, and not others. Certainly not below Larry Holmes, who had a long reign feasting on bums like Tex Cobb, who either K-Bro would KO in one round.

Tell yourself whatever helps you sleep at night, though. By this time tomorrow Haye will be history.

I don't see how he was the harder puncher. I mean Lewis knocked him down at will while Vitali landed a crap load of punches and never even dropped him.

Well Taaj I haven't had any answer from you yet. You only tried to get me to give you a 2-1 odds on the fight, and because I said EVENS, i haven't heard from you since..............

I've written to you 3 times at least and not a whisper...... Even if I had agreed to give you 2-1 and still won, you Don't inspire confidence that you would pay me. I'm sorry to say this.

EDGARG, I think the odds are 2.5 to 1; so what's the BIG DEAL???

Danny Williams said Tyson punches harder than Vitali. But the power of Vitali is more consistend and wears you down. Im shure Wlad hits harder than Vitali, even Sdunek said it back then when he trained both. Im shure Wlad can generate massive power with his right, he actually could be one of the hardest punchers of all time. But that doesnt change the fact that hes a safety first fighter, clinches a lot and fights boring. The only spectacular thing in Wladimirs fights are the knockouts but he clearly has 1 punch KO power if he want.

According to the records he has always made 200 comfortably for his Cruiserweight fights, and 6-7 years ago was fighting at 190. If he can even give Klitschko a good fight, it will be a 'feather-in-his-cap". But I doubt it. If he gets close he'll get hammered. I don't soubt THAT.

And klitschko is fast on his feet, and great at cutting off the ring...like a great cat.

I didn't say he failed a CW weigh in, but he openly said how for his last year or so he was desperately having to Squeeze down to 200 lbs, and in fight claimed he put on a good amount.

Now he's coming in to weigh in's and fights a mere 10 lbs heavier.

In fight at CW he'd have been around 208, so hes barely put on a few pounds of in fight weight.



He's either not quite the huge CW he made out he was, or he simply hasn't grown in to the weight as much as is sometimes claimed.

Whether that's good or bad who knows whatever, but I don't get why he got up to 235 in training once, and squeezes down quite so low as around 215, seems a bit much.
