    IMO, Vitali would easily beat Joe.

    presumably by letting him tear his face off and claiming a "moral victory" immediately after being tkoed.

    Vitali. Points or late TKO, take your pick.

    Size won't be as big a factor as people think.

    Joe Frazier in the final of the Olympics fought the #1 ranked Soviet fighter Vadim Yemelyanov, who was 6''4 and 230lbs. Frazier proceeded to dominate him. Frazier's amateur career saw him routinely dominate much larger Eastern European boxers.

    Frazier wouldn't win even if he had a chainsaw! It would like be adding 4 inches and 30 pounds to Foreman of the 70's and then the added defense and ring IQ.....:tomb

    Geez I know it's fun and interesting but when will the BS stop?
    How about: "Both at their best. 03 Frazier vs. 71 Vitali?"

    Frazier would be tough, pressure and stamina. Vitali could hit but not a one shot guy like his brother, would this be 12-or 15 ...this is competitive IMO

    Joe would have more success against Vitali than he did against Foreman. I will probably still have to pick Klitschko, but I'm not too certain.

    Are you talking about the real world or the fantasy land that you occupy. Your hero worshipping is so preposterous it's untrue. Who the hell did Vitali beat in a weak era of heavyweights? My money is on the man who, during his short prime, was a wrecking machine.

    Frazier takes Vitali to deep waters and drowns him.

    Frazier will be on Vitali all night, he had pretty good head movement, I he was able to make the much faster Ali miss alot of his punches and close the gap, why wont he be able to do the same against the slower Vitali?
