Let's Settle This Once And For All: Vitali Klitscho vs Tyson?

Evander Holyfield at age 41 fought Byrd for 11 rds with his rotator cuff torn and never quit got walked downed or backed up by Byrd the way Vitali did.

 

Actually Vitali isn't that hard to hit - hence why he is considered to have one of the ATG chins.

 

He was already in a well documented decline at that point. Did you just crawl out from under a rock somewhere or somthing? I would expect anything less from a Klithugger though. Who have they really beat of any note? Wladimir got starched by Ross Purrity lol. There's some of your logic for you:deal

 

That was one fight, against ATG Lewis and both fighters chose to fight that one in a phone booth.

 

So Tyson was "in decline" when he fought Buster Douglas? He was like 24 or 25 years old. Shortest "prime" ever huh?

 

Well documented decline.................. :rofl

 

Lets not forget that Lewis was overweight, out of shape and 38 yrs old. lets also not forget that a 38 yr old golfer should have been credited with a first round KD against Vitali.

 

So he lost to Douglas big deal its not as bad as losing to Purrity.

 

NO, you clearly said "Ali ***** slaps Sullivan while he taunts the Klitschkos" as if it would be easy because you've seen so much footage of Sullivan to be a judge on the subject. Ridiculous. I've seen about 15 or 20 seconds of Sullivan fighting & the speed was too fast and I can't make an accurate judgment BECAUSE I HAVEN'T SEEN HIM FIGHT.

 

So you are saying Vitali is credited with a granite chine off that one fight versus Lewis?

 

I've seen enough to know that Ali is the GOAT and his size, speed and skill would make it easy enough for him.

 

Considering Lewis wasn't in good shape plus his age, I would say Vitali wasn't that impressive.

 

Ruskull, is Vitali the best heavyweight ever? Do you favour anyone against him?

 

You're really trying hard but failing bro, keep it up though. If you say it enough you'll convince yourself anyway :thumbsup

Approx. 1 year earlier that "old Lewis" did enough to KO Tyson right? Lewis was 5-10 pounds heavier against Vitali. So what?

Corrie Sanders was more well known as a boxer than he ever was as a golfer. In fact Sanders was a pro boxer but never a pro golfer. That wasn't a knockdown either unless you wanted it to be when you watched it. It was after the bell & Vitali tripped while coming off the ropes. Go ahead though, give Sanders that knockdown because it was all he got it the rest of the fight wasn't it? In fact he took a horrific beating for the rest didn't he?

 

vutali has never met anyone 1/4 of what tyson was
