    Which of the opponents Vitali beat would make Holmes struggle? I'm still waiting for an answer.

    17 fight rookie Solis who was KOd in the 1st round makes Holmes struggle?

    Fat 38 year old Sanders?

    I know you're not trolling because you picked the Witherspoon who was KOd in 1 round against smith to beat Moorer. This stupidity is consistent with your other picks at least. I'm not even going to bother with a poll since the last one I made was embarrassingly 1-sided and you stood your ground anyway.

    Stopped reading at calling Solis a rookie. Trolling requires subtlety and accurate statements.

    Would Klitschko struggle with Spoon and Carl Williams?

    I absolutely think Witherspoon would cause lots of problems for Vitali. Not sure why people don't think he would

    Either one on points. I don't see a stoppage.

    There is nothing subtle in your trolling. You don't even try to hide your bias whenever the subject is Foreman and Holmes and you're very consistent and predictable.

    To prove your bias, I'll use Solis. You always harp on about how Foreman never won a convincing 12 round decision to suggest he's overrated h2h. How many 12 round decisions did Solis win before he was brutally KOd in 1 round against Vitali?

    You didn’t even watch the fight. He wasn’t brutally ko’d.

    Yeah. They could actually jab, box, block, counter, move, and think. I thought you were all about "modern advancements" and good ring IQ? They would certainly be more challenging than cavemen like Areola, Peter, Chisora, or Briggs lol

    Look at the amazing sweet science of Vitali's best opponents

    Not sure why the Solis fight is even being brought up. His knee went at the end of the first. Looks like it could have been interesting, but you really can't take anything away either way from just a round, as they were still feeling each other out. In terms of Vitali's legacy it might as well have not happened.

    It was brought up because I asked which of the opponents Vitali beat would make Holmes struggle.

    He said THAT version of Solis.
