    He had to run from Sanders untill he ran out of steam. An out of shape, part time golfer had him chicken dancing, knocked him down and hurt him repeatedly. What do you think a prime Foreman would do? Absolute finish.



    Vitali grabbed Lewis and hung on for dear life. His legs were GONE and he was lucky that he grabbed Lewis right after he was hit, otherwise he would have gone down.

    Prime Foreman's right uppercut was deadly as well, and he was stronger than lewis in the clinch so Vitali would be pushed back if he tried to Clinchko him.
    Knocked down? Vitali wasn't knocked down. He slipped at one point but a punch didn't land. Avoiding punches is part of the sweet science, you should look into it.

      So slow that it was a blur in super slow motion huh?

      Just stop it already. Corrie had one of the fastest straight lefts in heavyweight history.

      It's not debatable.

        Lennox was the one who was clinching more in that fight. Vitali and Wlad are not the same person...

        Anyway I am signing off...

          I said that my post was going to cause butthurt and sure enough Boxing goat comes out with red K because I am bringing attention to the forgotten Sanders fight where he looked very human.

          Frankly an ironic fanboy like you cracks me up. You mentioned rewriting history while being moronic enough to put "Corrie Sanders" and the words "greatest in HW history" in the same sentence. Jesus, you have no shame whatsoever.

          This is what Klitorian fanboys are guilty of. They hype up the fighters who beat them or made them look bad, just so that their men look more amazing and unbeatable.

          To think Vitali would last against a PRIME Foreman, one of if not the most destructive HW ever while being smacked around, chicken dancing and knocked down by an out of shape Golf player? Yeah, ok.

            I totally agree,,, I dont think he ko's him like he did frazier or moorer or lyles, but he would stop him on his feet,,,

            But if george gassed out,, i think vitali has a great chance to stop him as well,,
            I dont think george ever fought anyone that could match him in the size and had really good jab

I have no reason to lie about it. I don't care one way or another. Like I said, the Rocky movies and 'Punch Out' made me a fan in the 80's and I have followed every since. Tyson was my favorite fighter until Morrison came along, then later I switched to Roy Jones and have been there every since. I watched SRL fight in the 80's live on TV for crying out loud. So ****ing what.

              Oh and about Foreman's title fight record, I stated that as a fact not a guess. (5-4)
              Because anyone who's watched boxing for 30 or so years, would know that the crap you just wrote was a load of shit.

              You said he had 4-5 title fights. He may 'only' have 9 title fights, yet who has Vitali beaten that equates to a Norton, Frazier, Lyle, Ali, Holyfield or even Moorer?

              I'll wait...

                Foreman has the power advantage. Not just slightly, his power was awesome. He lifted Joe Frazier off his feet. He could knock everyone out in the world. Including Vitali.
                a Prime Foreman was as fast as Prime Vitaly?
                are you kidding me?
                Foreman was so fast that David Haye would look like he's punching under water next to big George.
                Big George could box better then Lennox, could be hit on chin by a truck and won't even wobble. He also had 95 inch reach and could shoot fireball out of his arse.
                He was also 7 feet tall and lead Scottish army against the English. He KOed Cooney who is white and tall like Vitaly so he would KO Vitaly with ease.

                  vitali always fights backing up. byrd did nothing to make vitali quit. he tore his rotator cuff

                    Foreman > Vitali & Wlad.

                    It's as simple as that weiner.

                      I like the fact that you think a human looking version of vitali won by a brutal one sided beating of the #2 rated heavyweight in the world at the time.
