    There are a bunch of Vlad haters, but are very few Vitali haters here. There are probably 5 of them.

    The people who voted for Vitali are just nut-huggers. Otherwise, they would have listed his best wins. And there's no way to argue that Vitali's best wins are better than Byrd's best wins.

    Tua > Arreola
    Holyfield > Adamek
    Vitali > Sanders

    Anyone who thinks Vitali's resume is better than Byrd's needs to confute my evidence. But no one can, because they're delusional fanboy trolls.:deal

    To set the record straight I think they weren't black or white but some weird mix and that's why DNA is all over the map.

    It makes me wonder how much racism there is beneath the surface when different boxers are debated. In either case, ancient Egyptians were neither black or white. They resembled Persians a whole lot more, who are lighter in the skinn than blacks, but a whole lot darker than Europeans. Their culture were regional, and any influences that can be speculated about are from Asia, not Europe.

    For same strange reason, arabs are barely mentioned in this debate. For the record, Arabs are not Persians, but closer to them than whites and black.

    This is what Ancient Egyptians thought of themselves according to race. They are listed as the far right race.

    Different than the White and Black race.

    Yes, so it seems. Origins of ancient high culture is primarily an Middle East and Asian thing, so the glory can't be claimed by blacks or white. People need to stop trying to get credit for others work, and do something on their own.

    Exactly they think if they can link their race to a great civilization their value increases over another race somehow but it doesn't.

    Ancient Egyptian civilization is not a product of Asia or the so-called "Middle East". It is indigenous to the African continent as were it's founders...

    How exactly Vitali was going to lose against Byrd, if wasnt the injury ?
    Shoulder injuries are one of the worst for a boxer or gym guys. I have problem with shoulder, and it was only a sore from the weights, but i also train boxing and become worst and if not stopping, this injuries become chronic and then good luck on fixing them.

    Byrd beat 40 years old Holyfield, and was losing big against Vitali, before the injury. Not to mention he was schooled by non prime Wlad, and in 2006 prime Wlad simply destroy him. Alexander Povetkin also beat his ***.
    He was good boxer, but not so good Champion. I mean he won, then lose the title in no time.
    Both Klitschko was dominant.
    And Vitali beat a lot of tough prime opponent, a lot of undefeated opponents.
    How many of Byrd opponents was undefeated ?
    Char, Solis, Kevin Johnson, Arreola, Hoffmann and a lot of guys with 1 loses ....

    you've superimposed your concept of race on a picture that depicts 4 skin tones.

    you've assumed that what you think is what they thought.
