    Obviously you have a problem differentiating between the 2 brothers.

    Since we were talking about Vitali let's stay on topic shall we?

    The Great Lennox Lewis was KTFO by Hasim Rahman and knocked down by Oliver McCall. When has Vitali ever been knocked down in a professional boxing match? Never, his only 2 losses came by injury, but completely justified. The fact still remains he's taken some huge shots from Lewis himself even, but never knocked down let alone out. Sonny Liston has been knocked out, so was The Great Joe Louis. Frazier & Forman too.

    The also has an incredible workrate and the highest KO ratio somewhere in the 90+ % area. He's adding to that KO number with each fight.

    Given the size, chin, awkward boxing style, busy workrate, high accuracy & power in both hands combined with the KO ratio you would have to be a fool to pick all those fighters over Vitali.

    I'm certainly not saying that he couldn't lose to better than half the fighters you listed but to give him no chance against any of them is ridiculous. In fact his name belongs being mentioned with those greats but on a head to head basis, not based on legacy.

    How many rounds has Vitali lost in his entire boxing career? Thanks for reminding me to add that fact to Vitali's resumé.

    The same Bowe that got his ass handed to him by Andrew ****in' Golota? That wasn't a mere case of Riddick being injured or a cut stoppage either, that was a brutal beat down both fights. Golota outclassed, outjabbed & hurt Bowe regularly. What makes you believe a far better jabber with much more power & a better chin wouldn't beat Bowe a new ass?

    Exactly.

    Klitschko nut gulpers keep bringing up the Bonecrusher Smith and Mitch Green fights as some type of "evidence" or indication that a Klit would stand a chance against Tyson in his prime. I sometimes wonder if they've ever even seen those fights.

    Klitschko nut gulpers, please listen carefully;

    The ONLY reason why guys like Smith and Green went the distance with Tyson is because they weren't interested in getting brutally KTFO'ed. It's not like these fights were close on the scorecards. They WEREN'T...

    I guess Bowe stood no chance against Evander either, oh wait................:D

    A fairly decent jabber with so-so power Buster Douglas pounded Tyson down why couldn't you picture Vitali or Wladimir doing it?


    Whatsamatta? Nobody wants to play?

    Usually Mike did his best work in the early rounds, by the 7th round he'd be all confused, discouraged and ready for nappy time.:dead

    Are you convinced that Tyson would be able to knockout Vitali when a perfectly planted uppercut from Lewis couldn't do the job?

    So now you're comparing Bonecrusher Smith's & Mitch Green's ability & power to that of the Klitschkos?

    Like I said, that would be ridiculous, more so then comparing say Wladimir's right hand to Lennox's.

    VITLAY was knocked down by Corrie Sanders, but the fanboys are in denial on that one I'm afraid :nut

    Of the 2 fighters that KO'd Lewis, VITLAY ran for the hills from one of them and the other one is about 90 years old now. It ALWAYS boils down to this - who the **** has VITLAY ever beaten that's worth a damn?

    Answer that question please.

    The workrate and KO percentage are both affected by his comp level too, as is this ridiculous thing about "amount of rounds won in his career" that you all like to fall back on. When the chips were down, against good fighters, VITLAY was found lacking - and it doesn't matter a ****ing thing what the scorecards said at the time he lost or quit, or whatever.

    Lewis avenged both of his loses - by KO. Vitaly, OTOH....

    Also, Klitschko's two losses came against the two best fighters he's stepped in the ring with.

    Coincidence?

    I don't know. I do know that for the majority of it he's beaten up on bums. Of course you sack-swingers bring up bull**** statistics at every turn so feel free to take comfort in the fact that he's not lost many rounds - yet he's lost the 2 biggest fights he's been involved in.

    See here FW is comparing Wladimir Klitschko to Frank Bruno, who isn't near the level of Wlad. :-(

    Tyson was 19 when he fought Green I think, and about 21 when he fought Smith, and those were both comfortable wins. WALDO was what, 22 or so when he lost to Purrity yet it's "waaaah waaaah WALDO was immature and lost because he went for the KO" :rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl

    It's completely true that certain fighters went into survival mode against Tyson and lost every minute of every round in the process. Iggy did the same thing against WALDO yet it was called a 'masterclass' by the sack-swingers. Un-****ing-believable.

    Bowe was WAY past it by the time he fought Golota.

    I accept your surrender...
