    he is 6f7 250lb... and doesn;'t really look taht big or strong.. i mean wlad is stronger then him...

    shannon briggs was ripped as hell and made vitali look like a skinny shrimp.....


    vitali needs to bulk up in muscle, he is losing muscle mass.. if you look at his pics from his recent training camp

    So you're saying he isn't strong cause he doesn't look strong?

    Having bigger muscles doesn't necessarily make you stronger. I know plenty of people who lift loads for mass and aren't really that strong, as well as some wiry narrowly built people who have insane levels of strength.

    At training I once fought a kid who came to only one class (I dunno why he never came back) and he had no wrestling or grapplig background (just watched and read a lot) and his strength was off the charts. Even our trainer had to put noticible effort into control him (and our trainer trains and lives like a monk). This guy was about 5'6 and weighed 160lbs at most.
    On the other hand I once grappled with one of the guys who I ALWAYS see lifting weights in the weights room and he had **** all (functional) strength, I don't know his bench, squat etc stats but in a Jiu Jitsu roll he had nothing on me and I don'y count myself as THAT strong. Off the top of my head he's about 6'2 and must weigh like, 190lbs?

    Vitali more cut than currently, but compared to the ripped Monaco, Vitali looks like a scrawny teenager.

    Definitely BIGGER these days. Bigger arms, bigger chest, broader shoulders. Other than hating on Vitali, you thread has NO merit.
     
  7. So what does that say about Vitali who beat the living crap out of Briggs?
    Skinny shrimp bullied Big Briggs for 12 rounds.

    Here, maybe you want to take a look at it again mate:

    Who gives a ****? In case you havent noticed that means **** all in boxing, as evidenced by what actually happened in the briggs fight.

    fighting isn't bodybuilding, muscular size has little to do with strength, its all in terms of neuromuscular efficiency. Vitali seems to be pretty strong in the ring, if this were about muscular physique Primo Carnera would have owned Joe Lewis and Max Bear, but he looked too weak to be in the ring with them.

    Some guys look strong and aren't even lifting a lot in the gym, others who don't look strong, can't lift much weight, can hit hard and push people around. Its weird that way.

    briggs is bigger but this is boxing not a body building contest.to much muscle will **** you up in boxing anyways if your not naturally built like that in the 1st.vitali has power but is weaker then wald so i agree there.but vitali might not have the muscles but he has power.i remember chris areola saying how strong vitali was in the ring.infact vital is stronger then everyone but his brother i think.
     
  12. Vitali beat a washed up Shannon Briggs that Foreman got critize for fight 13 years ago and since Vitali won that proves what? Vitali isnt strong and the only hilarious thing is how dumb euro trash keep bringing up how great Wlad and Vitali are.

    Sheesh, looking at those highlight, I've can't remember Briggs looking so horribly outclassed in his career.

    Boxing isn't about being ripped, it's really idiotic to believe so. I remember just after a year of going to the boxing gym and learning everything I boxed my friend (who is maybe the most ripped and jacked person in the school) and I destroyed him. It's not even me bragging, it's the fact that skill in talent from boxing has nothing to do with being jacked.
