Do you think Vitali's injury will change his strategy?

    You sound suprized. Did you even watch the Barrett Rahman fight?

    This is another weak opponent for Vitali, and the only reason it's acceptable is because he's being forced to fight.
    i was trying to show to everyone that the person who is almost always opposed to vitali is actually saying that rahman will lose.

    yes, actually. i am suprised.

Granted, Johnson's training camp was probably set up at McDonalds before that fight, but if you look at Vitali's record, he was an early rounds KO master up until his fight with Sanders. He certainly tried to do it with Lewis. I think he could do it with Rahman. Assuming his injury is legit, of course.
        Johnson was breathing like he'd run a marathon 1 min and 30 seconds in. He was asking to be stopped.

        Vitali is not a KO puncher. Sure he had early KO's prior to the Lewis fight, but it was a lot of German club fighters, and guys like Herbie Hide and Obed Sullivan.

        He's a TKO puncher (accumulation), and I'd be suprized to see him take out Rahman in less than two rounds.

          You're not very swift then.

          I think Vitali is over rated, and (a section of) his fans are morons,

          but for me to select fighters like Rahman to beat him would show that I don't know what I'm talking about, or am too biased to be posting.

          That's not the case.

          Rahman is a very poor opponent, and Vitali should beat him fairly easilly.

          Ruiz beat him clearly and comfortably.

            i agree but i wouldnt use the words "ruiz" and "comfortably" in the same sentence.

                Ruiz won 117-111 on my card.

                The point was, Vitali's fighting a guy that John Ruiz beat rather easilly.

                Picking Rahman isn't a very informed or wise pick.

                If this injury is legit however, Rock has a bit more hope. He's a strong guy, and he'd surely try to bull Klitschko around on that bad knee.

                  I definitely agree that he is not a 1-punch KO wonder but breaks his opponents with accumulation. We will just have to wait and see what happens, I guess.
