Vitali Klitschko Ibhof?

[Ravens Fan]

Larry Donald wasn't in the top 10 - I just checked.

Neither was Solis or Johnson. Gomez had a 3 month stint in the top 10 - probably lost it because of his loss to Vitali.

That's 8. 6 wins, two losses. Hardly great whichever way you put it.

You are trying real hard to make Vitali's record look bad. To me it is what it is and you can debate it all you want but your lame research has holes in it.

You see I never pay attention to the alphabet boys and I have paid very close attention to Ring rankings for many years. Therefore if I was a betting man I would bet everything I own because I am 100% positively sure that both Kevin Johnson and Solis were ranked in the top 10 by Ring Magazine when they fought Vitali. The only one I wasn't sure about was Larry Donald but I still say there is a good chance that he was.

I am also sure that you are aware that, or at least I hope you are, the ranking change and they are not the same for a whole year. In other words if they listed every fighter that was ranked in the top ten for a complete calender year I am positive that in most cases there would be more then ten fighters. That is because they are ranked monthly and not once a year. In other words it can change from month to month.

With all that said. If you cannot produce the monthly listing for the better part of the last twenty years, which I don't believe exist, you haven't proved anything. And you may believe I haven't proved anything but this time around it is not based on my opinion and you are just flat out wrong.

He is grasping at straws with this thread.

TS is a sad hate filled person.

vitali is an ATG heavyweight and future HOF'er no matter what "facts" you bring up. i bet you'll cry and stomp your feet when he's inducted in front of a cheering crowd hahahahahahahahahaha.

grow up TS.

[BattlingNelson]

What agenda? Did he not test positive for steroids?

I think he did yes, but wasn't that in another sport before he became a professional boxer?

If Fury is called out for ducking Ustinov, I think a very strong case can be made for Vitali ducking Rahman.

No it cannot.

[SalimShady1212]

Wladimir and Vitali are better than any heavyweight in the last decade. People are so blind and have not paid attention to the HW division so have no idea. The Klitschko's could compete with any era. They've beaten everyone, not their fault the division is crap. Wilder is easy work.

[tjones1989]

Vitali clinchko was trash just like his clinch hungry brother. Put any decent heavyweight in front of them and he'll get throttled just like when Lennox steel fisted him. He and his brother dominated a weak era of heavyweight boxing they cam be inducted into the international boxing hall of CHUMPS. Or the international boxing hall of DUCKS. If vitali and wlad fought in the 80s and early 90s they would be nothing but fringe contenders I guarantee it

You contribute literally nothing to any thread.. you just insult people that point out Klit flaws and you just **** ride other posters boasting them up.. you are just a bystander in every thread

[cupocity303]

I can't help but think that there is some collaborative effort with the type of Klitschko threads today.

[wladavit]

That and the fact that this was the first bit to be mentioned shows the agenda of the TS. Also Vitali ducking Rahman.

Vitali never ducked Rahman he was injured and could not fight.

[beez721]

That's not misrepresentation. Once a cheater, always a cheater right? That's what Ricky Lake said anyway.

How many times was he tested in his pro career?

vitali ducking rahman just makes no sense. vitali has never shown fear going into any fight. hell,, he fought the dangerous (at the time) sam peter without a tune up after a huge layoff. a guy like rahman would have been a perfect style for vitali. right in front of him without much speed or upper body movement. vitali ate guys like that up
