Who could trouble Vitali?

Wlad, Povetkin, Haye, Solis.

 

Vitali is getting older. If he keeps fighting one day he'll be beaten by a lesser opponent .
He has nothing else to prove, retire and enjoy life.

 

I agree with all of those except Povetkin. Vitali would school him. Povetkin might not even win a round.

 

Vitali beats them all including his lil Brother.

 

Wlad: No.

Better boxer, no doubt, and better resume, but not as good head-to-head, not as tough nor resilient if it went toe-to-toe, which it would.
Besides, he'll always have the psychological handicap of being the 'little' brother.

Vitali by mid rounds corner stoppage.



Povetkin: No

Some day, maybe, when he's 'ready' and Vitali has reading glasses. Just not yet.

Vitali by stoppage, very similar to Vitali-Adamek.



Haye: Maybe

If Davey Boy's toe stays healthy and he can run and pot-shot for 12, he could UD the bigger man. But I don't think he would. At least, like Povekin, not yet. Time is on his side here.


Vitali by close decision or late stoppage.





Solis. No

He showed some spunk for 2/3 of a round but went down from a lightish tap to the temple. :yep

Seriously though, that might have been his peak performance. He's looked poor ever since.

Vitali by stoppage. Takes a little longer second time, but not much.




BTW, you forgot to mention TF. :think

 

Povetkin and current Solis would get a beating for 12 rounds

Wlad is out of current Vitali's league

Haye is a mystery- if he comes to fight and won't be afraid to get hit, then he poses a threat to Vitali

 

Wlad.

David Haye.

 

If you still think the current Vitali that looked horrible against Charr can even beat Wlad you should seriously log off.

 

+ Charr. :deal

Yeah, horrible is what you would have to call it.

Dominated the undefeated Charr in every round, scored a knockdown and then TKO in under 4.

Horrible, indeed.

 

Vitali looked old and sluggish against a crude barfighter like Charr

Vitali was lucky to have the doctor step in just when he was running out of gas and Charr was increasing the pressure :tong

 

Vitali and Haye are a step up from the rest of the division, and Wlad is another step up from them at this point. Difficult to say how Haye v Vitali would go, depends if Haye really can hurt Vitali and keep him hurt.

 

Wlad, Golovkin, Abdusalamov, Szpilka, Boytsov, Fury
