    Adamek? Peter? Arreola?

I heard on more then one occasion peter was actually older then he was claiming to be. No proof but just some stuff you hear about...maybe adamek is his best win. He destroyed adamek...
      Adamek is a better fighter than Peter
      he's more skilled, he's tougher, and he has better wins
      would put the Sanders win above the Peter win
      Sanders was underrated, while Peter was kinda overrated
      Peter win was still a good one, but not Vit's best

        His best win was probably in the UK against Herbie Hide, don't know how many of his other opponents were two time world belt holders.

          Just sayin'


          edit: obviously he lost, but if you think Byrd is elite and would of been a good win, Vitali obviously showed his class in the fight

          Well, when compared to the Heavyweights of today, Byrd is definitely considered elite. If Byrd was 10 years younger & still fighting today, he would be in the top 3-5 heavyweights. Haye vs Byrd would have been a very nice match up.

          And yeah I get that Vitali was winning, but it's still a loss on his record regardless of how it happened.

            people might knock it because he's smaller, but that's not Vit's fault
            he was beating Byrd but quit, or that woulda been it
            I would probably rank Sam Peter over that version of Adamek. Probably Corrie Sanders too. I would rank Chris Arreola on par with Adamek. But those would be his best wins.

            Followed by Herbie Hide and Gomez.

              I think Vitali's best performance was in Gomez fight. He really looked the best in that fight.
              Name wise it's probably Peter and Sanders.

                Probably Peter, which speaks for itself.

                His resume is so so bad.

                  Vitali will be in the hall of fame, but he's not an ATG. He couldn't even beat a 38 year old out of shape Lennox Lewis when he was in the beginning of his prime.
