I don't rate Byrd that highly, actually. He lost to Oquendo and Golota in his prime. I think "elite" is stretching it.
Last positive test: Prior to the olympics, the last time he took stricter testing Reason for positive test: He took steroids
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/ot...04/Boxing-Klitschko-admits-steroid-abuse.html Vitali took roids to beat up on kids in the Olympics. He was caught and he was not even sorry .He lied that he thought it was 'pain meds'
This content is protected Wait I just realised Vitali is wearing a Fila suit FILA :rofl He's got that eurotrash style down to a tee
This content is protected He was beaten by a fat blubbery shot whale Lennox trained for Kirk Johnson by eating at buffets. Then he realized at the end it was some 'tall Ukrainian shmuck' and continued eating.
Regardless of how you feel about the Lewis fight. It is quite an achievment to have never been behind on the scorecards in any fight. I cant think of anyone who can make a statement and much less a world champion.
Links to Byrd refusing rematch and the supposed steroids that were "non performance enhancing" or you're lying.
:rofl Only two "good" fighters.:rofl Only on an anonymous internet boxing forum can such bull**** pass as serious.
I'm not interested in which top 10 guys Vitali has fought. They don't deserve to be called "elite" when their level of talent is so low.
Let's not forget that before the Klitsckho's rounds won was not a proper statistic for a fighters career. Apart from that he has two legit losses neither of which are particularly controversial in reality and neither of which Vitali refutes. He's a great fighter H2h but his resume is poor for such a great champ. He did lose his two fights against the best fighter he fought, but many (myself included) have Lewis in their top 3/5 HW ATG rankings. Byrd is arguably his second best opponent though but not definitively like Lewis at #1
Vitali Klitschko is without a doubt great fighter, but i am still a bit bitter that he couldn't finish off Lewis, a Boxer like Vitali who is bred for dominance, shouldn't have allowed Lewis to reach the 3rd round, he was landing at will and Lewis was there for the taking. I actually became a Big Lewis fan and a lesser Klitschko fan after the fight. Greatest comeback of Lewis's career.
If Vitaly is that bad how did he easily beat all your British heroes like Hide, Williams and Chisora? How did he dominate Lewis until he got cut? So, what your saying is that crappy fighter dominated British boxers with ease? and only lost to one of them by injury? That makes British boxing **** eh?
