    Vitali is so overrated, Joshua would put him to sleep.

    Only if AJ puts chloroform on his gloves and rubs them in Klitschkos face.

    Harder sharper punchers and better fighters than Joshua weren’t ever close to “Putting him to sleep” Lol Can’t say the same about Ol’ roid boy can we? :)

    This and the way joshua stood there between 41 year old Wlad and the ref at the stoppage and smiled. It was a ***** thing to do.

    I'd be smiling if I'd knockout Wlad in only my 19th fight.

    That's because you have no class.

    Wladimir invited Joshua into his gym and passed down to him what he knew. A stupid thing to do on Wlad's part since you never show a wolf what's in your hands.

    Nevertheless the least you'd expect, is some kind of respect and manners. Instead of unabashedly gloating, smiling while sticking your tongue out in mocking fashion a before then stepping up to and disrespecting the older brother.

    He's very fortunate Vitali puts professionalism before his pride, otherwise he could easily have quickly placed Joshua into a headlock before snapping his head in two with his bare hands.

    Aren’t you a massive wilder fanboy? Didn’t he say he wanted a body on his record, where’s the respect and class there?

    Was that aimed at anyone in particular?

    Did you kick up the same fuss when Ortiz said he wants to rip the skin off Joshua's body?

    Or when Kovalev said he wants to end Ward's career for good?

    Or how about when Mike Tyson was talking about eating Lewis' children?

    The fact is that kind of talk is part and parcel of boxing and it is mostly hype for the fighter to ignite fear into their opponent or drum up interest in a fight.

    Lastly I am no fanboy of any fighter, it just so happens it is vogue to hate Wilder on this site and I don't happen to follow along with the script.

    Exactly, part and parcel of boxing, glad you’ve just realised.

    Vitali had a war with an out of Shape Lennox Lewis who didn't bring much of a gas tank to the ring.

    The situations are not comparable. One is trash talk outside of the ring to create drama, the other is mocking and taunting your opponent while they are losing or hurt.

    If you think they are the same instances/examples then God help you! :lol:

    Even Lucas Browne had the decency to give respect to a Legendwhen he fought James Tony. A legend who he had hurt and in trouble on the verge of finishing. He could have taunted him or show boated, and even knocked him out.

    Instead Browne respectfully resisted knocking James Toney out and never once did it cross his mind to taunt him throughout any period of the fight.

    Joshua is more dangerous and punches much harder than an old past it Lewis. What is Vitalis best win anyway... Arreola? Sanders? Let’s not even mention the quitjob against Byrd.

    Joshua after 22 fights and 5 years pro owns a better resume than Vitali, and has already leapfrogged him in any HW ATG conversation.
