    Yeah, he did eat a hell of an uppercut, but I can guarantee you to Vitali, the blood in his mouth didn't taste like no damn cupcake. :lol:

    Yeah. What's really amazing about Ali is that he was able to do that while moving, as well. Other guys can do that type of lean-back dodge well, but few can do it while moving their legs around at the same time.

    Not only could he weave but he could drop down and bob as well. Ali was a monster man in his prime.

    would the math involve examining his fight against former middleweight Chris Byrd, chubby, 74 inch reach, who stood immediately in front of Vitali all night, making him miss?

    ROFLMAO Henry Coopers left hook was one of the hardest single punches in boxing

    ROFLMO Lennox uppercut nearly decapitated Vitali He didnt know if he was in Vegas or Vladivostok

    ROFLMAO Vitaliis bigger than Ali but in his prime Ali would have played with Vitali He would have embarassed him

    Can I give you a tip ??? Try following another sport OK :roll:

    He dislocated his arm throwing a punch againsy byrd.

    btw you say byrd like he's a bum? byrd would beat anyone on alis bloated resume with ease.

    Literally everything you just said was opinion. Vitali ate that uppercut from a 6'5 real heavyweight (not the little men ali fought), smiled then continued to throw against lennox.

    That uppercut would have decapitated ali, FACT

    I think the right hand could've killed him if it landed.

    How did this turn into a bash the Klitschko's thread?

    The kid just posted a picture of Ali moving his head.

    No ****, the Klitschko's can't move as fast as Ali. Who could?

    No bash on the robots, but it's just not the skill of moving fast. It also entails seeing and reacting fast. Visual and muscle twitch control. Super fast reflexes.
    Sugar Ray Robinson had that skill and so did Sugar Ray Leonard, James Toney, Roy Jones, and Floyd Money Mayweather.
