Comments Thread For: Vitali: Joshua Got Lucky Against Wladimir; I'd Knock Him Out!

A prim vitali would wipe the canvas with Joshua.

**** a prime wlad prob would have won an easy UD

[jmrf4435]

'i'd knock him out if i could fight him but i cant, if only wlad did this he'd have won' why dont you shut the **** up you salty old ****. lennox beat you when you were in your prime and he was an old man who barely trained, you'd get badly hurt against joshua these days.

That fight was pretty even. And if it continued vitali looked like he was coming on, probably could have had the stoppage without the cuts

in my opinion Vitali was the better of the 2 brothers both were very good and hall of famers but I dont even think its close as far as who the better one is.Vitali might be too old now but I wouldnt bet against him if he fought Joshua. In his prime I take Vitali easy tho

[juggernaut666]

Maybe in THAT fight he could have won. Joshua is going to have a better handle on things now from here on in .

Vitalis advice couldn't be that bad ,after the 7th rnd on his stool Wlad was told by Vitali to take it to Joshua or you will lose the fight .

Come back ,knock out Wilder ,then it sets up unification super fight with Joshua . In a match really more dangerous for Joshua . I would consider Vitali the favored over Wilder since he has not stopped traing since he left and whos style would expoit Wilders flaws .

and to everyone wanking over vitali in this thread, can someone tell me what great names he has on his resume?

[Cinci Champ]

as much as I want to say ya right Vitali too old and been gone too long but to be honest if he came back and signed to fight Joshua I dont think there are many who would bet against him. the obvious take is that hes too old etc tho obviously

[moltres.]

they couldn’t sell it. 42 would be maximum imo. then he could probably have one last horah. but 46 too old. put your feet up and chill with the wifey. money does talk though.

AJ lucked out like a MF

Lennox beat his face into pulp that's why the fight couldn't continue!!! ����������

Lennox > Vitali

It was a cut. Vitali was well ahead on the scorecards and wanted to continue and was never hurt in that fight; meanwhile, Lennox had been rocked in that fight, got saved by that cut and retired.

Lennox has always had a suspect chin and he went the distance with many opponents - no way he knocks out a guy who's never been even dropped. Vitali > Lennox or any other heavyweight you want to bring up, including Ali.

Vitali was leagues better than Wlad, it wasn't until Vitali retired that Wlad got his praise at last. With that said Joshua went life and death with a 41 years old faded version of Wlad and almost got taken out. It's pretty easy to say Vitali was the better of the two brothers so simple enough to say that a 41 year old Vitali would've faired better than his brother and may not have left AJ off the hook.

I recognize Joshua is the new heavyweight hope and very promising as a HW but people need to get a grip and understand as he is right now, right this second he'd have a hell of a time beating a man more powerful, with a better chin, and with more heart and stature than the guy he beat.

I'm not a klitschko fan by any stretch but I respect their reign, weak or not...they could both crack.
