    I think Vitali would give Bowe a helluva a lot of trouble. Vitali is a an akward, but effective counter puncher, and Bowe has been effectively outjabbed and couter punched by Golota. I realize he was past his best then, but i believe Vitali is an even better fighter than Golota.

    I dont know TBH. Id probably run with Bowe in his prime, because he has beaten elite fighters where as Vitali has't really PROVED he is capable of that.

    Vitali...

    Bowe was good for around a year to 18 months but apart from that was VERY over-rated...

    I think your confusing Vitali for Wlad:think

    Wlad lost to those guys not Vitali.

    You dont have to convine me of anything i realize how good Riddick was, but Vitali is/was a pretty decent fighter to in his prime. Regardless if his resume does not back it up.

    It would not be an easy fight for either, but i think Bowe proved he could do it against the best. Where as Vitali hasn't really done that. Ive already said that though so i dont know why you bring up "Bowe is a lot better than Corey Sanders and Lamon Brewster"

    So your saying within those 18 months to a year Vitali still would have beaten Riddick?:think
