Default Re: Vitali K. Fighting in KickBoxing

Well that was always his rep in boxing as well until the Lewis fight proved his mental toughness.

As far as I'm aware he only ever fought full contact rules...which would allow him to rely on superior boxing more than K-1 rules.

I have reservations about the Lewis fight too. Didn't seem like he got angry about the stoppage until others did.

Default Aparently Vitali was Ko'd twice as a kick boxer?

A trainer at the colledge I go to who is a former British K-1 champion told me this. He is actually a massive boxing and Klitschko fan. I'm not debating Klitschko's chin here, that's obviously one of the best of all time. Would like to know if there is a video and know who the fighters were.

This is interesting - can't imagine Iron Chin Vitali being KO'd . I'd like to see this too.

Wow just checked his kick boxing record on wikipedia and it says former British heavyweight boxer Pele Reid Ko'd him in kick boxing.

I've heard this as well. I think Bremen came into the thread said it was bullshit but didn't provide proof either way. I know he got stopped just not sure how

It says on wikipedia that he was KO'd via spinning heel kick by Pele Reid and lost to William van Roomsmalen by KO too. I didn't even realise that Pele Reid had been a kick boxer. He must have been good though.

Surely the video, that he's referring to in the article, must be out there on the internet? I'd love to see it.

So he got KO'd by a kick to the jaw....so what? A kick is several times harder than a punch.

Like I said, nobody is debating how good his chin is. Stop being a fan boy about it. There is no shame about getting KO'd by a kick to the jaw, especially if your only 17 or 18. I was just curious about it.
