Vitali Klitschko tribute thread

[Simurgh]

True champion, remarkable person - lion hart and pure class.
Will be remembered as one of the greatest.

I wonder if he told Kramnik that he'd have to play against Wlad if he lost?

lol Wlad or Vitali have no chance against Kramnik

ALi didn't take time off, he went to jail in opposition of the war. if you have to equate that to Viatli, who actually took 4 years off, then you are truly desperate.

Where's the difference? You made the claim that "Vitali is not old because he took 4 years off" which means he isn't old because he wasn't boxing (pushing his body to the limit) for 4 years. Well Ali wasn't boxing for 4 years either so where's the difference? It was Ali's choice to oppose the war and endanger his boxing career btw.

[Simurgh]

Could have a great kick-box career too =)

GOAT hw, and I say that with full respect to all hws of the past.

You're joking, right?


He's a great boxer, but GOAT? HAHAHAHAHA.


I doubt he'll retire just yet. Apparently the Haye fight is arranged for mid-2013...

[Gojira]

Just a shame we could only see him in this bad era of heavyweights. Same goes for Wladamir.

[Mr. Fantastic]

Vitali is a true bad ass!!

[The Hammer]

Ali did not go to jail

Vitali is awkward,and is tough as nails,i think his resume is kind of weak but he beat who was put in front of him and more than less stopped them
