The Vitali I saw last night would of definetely lost to a prime Joe Frazier

    No question about it.

    You Vitali fans like to say stylistically Vitali beats Ali well guess FRIGGN what.... stylistically Frazier whoops Vitali's ass and has a high probability of KHTFO too. Vitali looked uncomfortable whenever Arreola would close the gap and throw punches from the inside, Arreola just lacked the finesse and workrate to capitalize on those situations. Arreola's head movement early in the fight kept Vitali from landing that right, Frazier would have the stamina to move his head from getting hit from it for 15 rounds and even if Vitali was able to get in 2-3 rights in the fight it would simply just be minor accumulative damage and nothing extrordinary that could send Joe to the canvas.

    In conclusion, since Vitali pussed out from Arreola's power by running all night, then Frazier's power, ability to close the distance and high workrate would of definetely been a nightmare for the former juiced up Olympian.

    and dont even get me started with Tyson....

    That wasn't a prime Klitschko though.

    It still applies. Vitali isn't capable of delivering the power from low like Foreman was, and so he isn't going to blow Frazier out of the water like Big George did. The only way he can hurt Frazier is like Ali did, with laser sharp right hands, and we all know that Vitali doesn't have the timing of an Ali.

    He looked the same like he did 10 years ago to me. So unless his power diminished which I doubt (power the last thing that leaves a boxer) last nights VItali isnt that far from a prime Vitali.

    Vitali keeping his hands low and leaning foward like that would have been murder if he tried that stuff against Frazier. Wlad's height might be a disadvantage against Frazier because Frazier could duck underneath that jab and go straight to the body. Plus Frazier would not have backed off at times like Arreola did. Frazier brings pressure the whole fight. At the very least, a prime Frazier would have given a way better fight than Arreola last night. Arreola's half-assed attempt at bobbing and weaving last night was pathetic. A guy his size and shape shouldn't even think about bobbing and weaving. And Chris Arreola really has no clue on how to cut off a ring.

    I can not undestand why Arreola could not pop the jab when Vitali's face was only about 2 feet away in front of him all night.

    Frazier would have come out of shape. So Vitali would have spanked him :)

    Didn't you just claim that Vitali would beat any HW in history?

    Enough said. :lol:

    Frazier would have needed a stool to step on in order to reach Vitali's chin. A TOTAL mismatch. How one even dares making such comparisons shows how clueless the OP is.

    Bull. Last night, Vitali was leaning into Arreola with his hands down. He gave up his height a lot during the fight.

    Stylistically, Frazier would be tough for the Vitali of today but i also believe Vitali is past his peak. Vitali is noticablly slower of hand and foot these days. Even against slow fighters like Peter and Arreola you can still see that he has slowed down.

    What head movement?

    We must have watched different fights because the fight i seen last night the loser never moved his head once and the winner was connecting with right hands from the first bell until the last.
