Who could beat a prime Vitali?

[Capaedia]

Word up... you know i'm right.. so stop frontin' as if Smokin' Joe can do the job 47 different others have failed to do.

Joe Frazier KO1

Not that he'd win, but I'd like to see a prime,( I mean prime not the shot version) of Rid**** Bowe fight him.

And of course a younger Lewis would give him problems as the elder version did.

If Foreman connected on him, who knows, Sanders wobbled him pretty bad.

The problem with trying to pin down a prime Vitali is that he actually started getting better as he got older.

Thank you... no version of him is significantly better than the other.. a few improvements in technique but the non varying results speak for themselves.

Vitali never wobbled vs Sanders,,, he was stunned & started backpedaling.. he still had his legs about him & was a bit clumsy..First of all that shot was a sneaky counter left that Vitali never saw coming. It's probably the ONLY shot in his career besides that Lewis shot on the side of the head with ten seconds to go where he absolutely didn't have a chance to brace for beforehand. Both Lewis & Sanders shots have KNOCKED down numerous fighters WITH the exact same shot & what about Lewis's bomb uppercut from hell flush to an unsuspecting Vitali who had blood streaming all around his eye region... if those shots don't do the job.. then nothing will.... only a balance shot is able to put him down if a fighter gets lucky & Vitali trips over himself in the process.


Foreman is NOT going to have a sneaky left from hell coming at Vitali at warp speed. Vitali started getting used to Sanders speedy counters & got used to bracing for them. If EVER a chance he was going to go down was in rd 2 vs Sanders.. as he was being backed up.. at one point Vitali didn't even have his hands up & Sanders hit him flush on the jaw. shots that nearly sent RAHMAN out of the ring & knocked his brother numerous times to the floor... he was just getting tagged flush on the jaw with no dfense at all still dazed from the end of the first rd..



I ALMOST FELT BAD FOR HIM that he was allowing Sanders to tee off & get freebies.. yet he just stood there with his hands down momentarily... i've only seen Mccall take unanswered shots without any D VS LeWIS.. trust me Vitali's jaw is tried & tested as well as his reflexes from kickboxing... he's used to expecting shots & absorbing them if he has to when his dfense has leaked on occasion.

he wasn't wobbled. he just decided to become clumsy after getting hit with a haymaker. you are the spin master!

Man jimmy1569, you have some serious "fanatic" problems man hahahaha!! You act like this guy is your daddy!! Wipe that brown off your nose son and relax for a day or two. Whatever you don't put that tattoo of Vilali on your chest most relationships like yours don't last hahahaha!! Get a grip son! Ray

Isn't wobbling when the knees buckle? Not spinning.. stating exactly what happened. He was more stunned than anything.. he was never on the verge of going down.. any punch can potentially bring down a horse if you're caught off guard... no shame in Vitali backing up & gathering his wits about him. He weathered the storm in the early parts of the second & then the beatdown of all beatdowns mixed with a little bit of revenge transpired.. nothing more nothing less.

I love how you take one sentence & dissect it when the entire post explains his lack of defense in those tense moments.

I just represent all the misjustice that goes on around here & it's pretty obvious there's some major hate for the Klitschko name brand as the spin on his legitimate domination & near perfection in the ring is beyond lame. Don't you worry about Vitali & I .. he's happily married.. i am his representative & this is what i do.. represent... i take your post as a compliment every time.

Vitali is on a Muhammad Ali level, a real peoples champion who stands up for his beliefs. Vitali is a future hall of famer. Im really gonna miss him when he retires, wish I was a fan back in the day. Didnt become a boxing fanatic until november 2005( watching old Tyson fights on ESPN). Starting watching Wlad in 06' when he beat byrd.

Now the Klitschkos have 6 world titles and some people just cant stand it for some reason. Let the haters hate, who cares. Vitali is a living legend who has had a great career.

H2H I think he is one of the best of all time but I don't see him beating Foreman, Liston and Ali.
