Comments Thread For: Klitschko vs Valuev Discussions Taking Place For Kiev

[Ravens Fan]

Why? This is the level of opponents Vitaly likes to face. And, yet his fan base try to act like he's an ATG.

Granted Wlad is fighting a very weak opponent in Mormeck next. But, Wlad has by far has fought the tougher caliber level of opponents in the last 5 years.

I always see these complaints yet they never state who they think Vatali should have been fighting. And as for who he has fought, nine out of the last twelve fighters Vitali has faced were ranked in the top 10 by Ring magazine. I am not sure how many other fighters you can say that about but I would bet that it will be a very short list.

fight has a strange appeal to it
likely would end up being boring, but it's still intriguing
Valuev is one of the few guys Klits haven't murked yet, so do this
would be crazy to see Valuev suffer a KD or get stopped in this

[Mr. Invincible]

this fight was interesting MANY YEARS AGO

now, it's irrelevant as Valuev is shot

Valuev has looked like utter **** in all of his latest fights

Lol, his last fight was against Haye and many thought he won. Shows what you know.

[Hougigo]

Yea, I'd love to see Valuev KO'd... dude's a 300 pound giant who pounds on smaller guys

[jimmy1569]

Still pissed Valuev got the "w" over Holyfield...

If Holyfied had won I think he would have retired.

Valuev is complete ****... I hope he is utterly destroyed and retired.

Nope.. if Holyfield had won.. he would've faced a Klitschko by now.... the fact that you think he would've retired with ONLY one belt shows you haven't been listening like the majority of fans who don't get it.

[HW CHAMPS]

Make it happen!

Vitali would become the first man to stop the Russian Giant.

[whatismyname]

last time the big klit had equal reach-disadvantage he got stopped, now the beast is now lewis, but it'll still be an ok fight to watch.

Vitali Klitschko vs Lennox Lewis

THE TRUTH

Vitali took the fight on just 10 days notice.

Vitali was clearly winning the fight 4-2 on all 3 scorecards at the time of the controversial doctor stoppage. Lewis barely survived the 2nd round and almost got KO'd, he was badly hurt, holding on for dear life, wobbling everywhere and staggering around the ring like a drunk. Lewis was badly hurt several times in the fight and was getting outboxed, outworked, outmuscled and outlanded by Vitali.

punches landed

Vitali 156

Lewis 102


Lewis was exhausted, worn down and hurt from the accumulation of punches and was ready to get KTFO again, he collapsed onto his stool at the end of the 6th round, Vitali was clearly the fresher of the two, he was a man on a mission and would've KO'd Lewis for sure if the fight had continued.

After the fight, Vitali intimidated the shit out of Lewis and made him look like a bitch.

All the fans at Staples Center cheered for Vitali and booed Lewis after the fight.

Lewis promised Vitali a rematch.

Vitali destroyed Kirk Johnson in 2 rounds and called out Lewis again in the post fight interview. The scared Lewis retired shortly after that fight.

Lewis turned down 40 million dollars for a rematch and retired like a coward because he knew he would get destroyed by Vitali.

Vitali dominated Lewis and scared his bitch ass into retirement.



George Foreman: "Vitali was winning the fight. Lewis got lucky. There has to be a rematch!"

Jim Lampley: "A lucky escape for Lewis who was clearly losing the fight"

Even Emanuel Steward was upset and pissed off at Lewis for blatantly ducking a Vitali rematch.

Lewis is scared to death of Vitali.

[HW CHAMPS]

Vitali wasn't even in his prime yet.

Lewis was 37, not really that old for a HW.

Vitali is 40 and is still dominating. He hasn't lost a single round in his comeback.

Lewis said he was "at the peak of my powers" when he got his ass whooped by Vitali.

Lewis was coming off the KO win over Tyson. In the Lewis-Tyson post fight interview Lewis stated "I'm like fine wine, I get better with age"

In an interview right before the Vitali fight, Lewis said "I'm at the peak of my powers, I will keep fighting for many more years"

Vitali dominated Lewis and scared him into retirement.

Vitali is a better fighter than Lewis.

[Jay Volcano]

Actually, I want to see this fight for some time. Of course, that Valuev will lose, but I would like to see a K.O. from Klitschko. That would be awesome.
