He tried to throw an uppercut but farted and missed which of course led to him being knocked unconscious
Another pointless era vs era conundrum for which no one can possibly arrive at the definitive conclusion. Different times, different sizes... same endless debate.
Vitali would never be seen as greater than Louis so you have to create these kinds of **** threads. That's why you're **** posters. Especially you pale whale aka Bacon back. But the good thing is that when judging and comparing hvws the hvw division historically is the only division where the theory of evolution exists lmfao... Bacon said "black fella". Don't call him a racist. He's not smart enough to be one.
Do you want the truth? Louis had slow feet. He had documented trouble vs good jabbers and movers, was stunned or floored by men who might not be in the top ten today and was pretty easy to hit. His rounds won vs rounds lost ration on the best he fought ( Schmeling, Conn, Walcott, and Charles ) is in the negative column, meaning they won more rounds than he did, Now, what do you think a much bigger, taller, longer skilled boxer who hit harder than the likes of Pastor, Conn, Braddock, Godoy, Walcott, Galento or Charles would do with him and who also fought smart with a much better chin? Lucky for Louis, he fought in a weak time line. Even Ring Magazine who is as pro-Louis as anyone said the 1930's and 1940's was the worst period for heavyweight boxing. If this were track, you'd be comparing Jessie Ownes, to Usain Bolt in the 100-meter dash. Louis was great in his time, but the films suggest he's in trouble vs super heavies with skills.
Ali fought the same way, and he was tagged far more than Vitali was. Vitali was not easy to hit, even Lennox Lewis said so, Chris Bryd said the same. For a big guy he moved around the ring, always had a height advantage and longer arms, which he intelligently used, and unlike Wlad could counter or go to the body. If you can hadle the truth, Vitlai's rounds won to rounds lost ratio towers over Ali, and possible rivals or exceeds Floyd Mayweather's. He was nearly impossible to out box.
You know the first 4 sentences and I thought we could actually have a considered debate here. Then the last sentence revealed you as just another clueless, hopeless, brainless, Klit nuthugger.
Outside of Lewis, * he was not getting hit much prior to the cut * show me other fights where he was hit a lot? You do not know what you are talking about, but when he was hit, his chin was excellent. Examples please of Vitali being easy to hit, and I can easily embarrass you with punch stats, so be careful!
