I keep hearing all the experts claiming that the Klitschkos can't fight, they will lose to everyone, yet somehow they win. Then Haye runs like track & field and they claim that Haye is the greatest ever! Eddie Futch was a totally superior trainer over Roger Mayweather, he is not worthy of carrying his jock strap. Futch was a great trainer and such a nice person. When I was in Bowe's camp he was the best, again, not only trainer, but person. I miss him. Roger is a legend within his own mind. There is a claim that all European fighters can't fight, not at all. I have to disagree. All the European hate makes me angry, and all they lies I have heard on American Media, TV, printed and Net is a disgrace. Remember between the 1st and 2nd rounds of Vlad/Austin fight? Austin's corner told that he won the first round, that he had outboxed Vlad, the said, "This guy is slow". Not true, so biased, so biased that it become delusional. And evern worse when Richie Giachetti and Donald were laughing at Vitali's fights no video when they were in Germany. They claimed a knockout, but Vitali was the first to stop Donald. Gee, I guess they were wrong. Now, a person knows nothing about boxing unless he claims that all European fighters can't fight, not at all.
you're referring to the Wlad of old...I get really sick of people bringing these fights up...Wlad is a much better fighter. His footwork, his stamina, his overall ring intelligence, his experience. This version is head and shoulders above the version who lost to Sanders and Brewster, and would be a tough fight for any fighter in any era of the Heavyeight Division.
Would he? Has he faced anyone who would be a real contender in a solid-good era of HW, let alone a champ, that we could base this statement on?
Did anyone know that Vitali was schedululed to fight Ruddock years ago? Ruddock pulled out of the fight claiming an injury.
Want to make a bet that Vitali would knock Byrd out in a rematch? Hell, he was beating Byrd with one arm! After the first fight, Vitali spent over 2.5 hours in surgery for his shoulder, you were praying that he would die during surgery, or at least that the surgeon would mess his shoulder up so his career would be over. However, you cried when the surgery was successful. If Vitali had not stopped, his boxing career would have been over. Are you still angry over that? Probably so.
So how many times has Vitali beat Byrd??? It must drive nuts that Wlad and Vitali have both lost twice to BLACK GUYS!!!!!!!! I bet that gets your swastika arm band all in a bunch. Keith
You are downright delusional. Seek help. Nobody cried because vitali didn't die in shoulder surgery. You crazy son of a *****.
Never underestimate all the hate for Europeans by some. Vlad won the gold medal back in 1996. According to you, that did not happen because it was impossible!
Oh ****, farmy is hearing voices again. :nut Now he was in camp with Futch??? **** what a life this clown has had. He marched with Dr King, trained fighters with Eddie Futch, voted for Obama and hates the **** out of black people:huh Worst part is there are about 1% of the posters here that actaully believe the crap that this clown posts here.
Don't take my word for it...i'm simply regurgitating the sentiment of Manny Steward, someone who's been around boxing since "the glory years" of the Heavyweight division. i think he has more of an idea than anyone on this forum and so I'm taking his word for it.
You mean the guy who's job it is to make him look good, both in and out of the ring? I tend to think he might be a touch biased...
