Vitali's quality of opposition since his return from retirement

he has stepped up in competition since returning.the fighters he used to fight were worse save lewis and sanders.

 

He fights the best available opposition! And gets the job done with such ease! This man earns respect......

 

Vitali fights the best oppositon available. Lennox only did that if he really had to and avoided certain fighters.

 

:good I doubt anyone could seriously contest what you have wrote here mate!

 

I've always been a fan of Vitali because unlike his brother who has this robotic fighting style and can't react in the ring very well, Vitali isn't so preprogrammed and alot of what he does is a reaction to what his opponent is doing. His game is alot more mental than his brother's which is what I like to see.

 

:good It's unfortunate, but the Klitschko era is marred by the overall poor state of HW competition. So far, the best showing has been from a guy who would rather run out for junk food @ 9pm than run out for roadwork. By the time a true challenger arises to unseat both brothers, it may be so late that cries of "Klitschkos are washed up!" will be thrown around.

 

No disrespect Ronnie mate but I can't agree with you regarding Lewis. I agree that Vitali has never "Swerved" anyone but I can't recall any heavyweight that Lennox truly "Swerved". There may well have been occasions when he didn't fight certain guys when the fans wanted him to, but this may have been due to some of his defences being mandatory.

 

:good Well put!!

 

...absolute rubbish.

Its also worth mentioning that most of the opposition Lewis took to school would have given Klitschkos opponents a damn good arse kicking.

Klitschko is the dominant fighter in his era but im afraid Lewis is in a different league.

 

Klitschko has fought the best out there since his comeback and dominated them all

 

Has Haye or any of the other pretenders fought the calibre of opposition Vitaly has? Im very confident that Haye would not win in one sided fashion Vitaly did, if he would win at all against that opposition.

 

Seemed to avoid a rematch with klit on his way out.

 

The best win Haye has in heavyweight is against Valuev. He has to fight the likes of Chagaev, Arreola, Povetkin, Chambers to prove himself in heavyweight....
I think that Valuev lost his fights against Holyfield, Donald and Ruiz before he met Haye, but got gift decisions in Germany.

 

Agreed, he hasn't beaten a genuine top ten fighter imo

 

Thanks:good
