Vitali Klitschko vs. Muhammad Ali

This guy writes like that Meerkat talks in the car insurance advert
,"Compare the Meerkat .com" "Simple"!

 

Forgotten. My bad for overreacting too. Cheers.

 

errr... ali is usually credited with a 78-80" reach.

and he'd win regardless.

 

Ali batters vitali's face in cuts before he makes it to the 8th round. Vitali would hit air and Ali would come in and out at will. what a mismatch.

 

Ali TKO 1 Vitali

 

Aren't you forgetting that Vitali was the man who beat " super south paw Sanders?" Surely you must have intended for your post to read this,

Vitali TKO 1 Ali..

 

This is really General Forum childish. There's no need for all the mindless hate VK's getting here.

 

Ali by a very close decision. Vitali very awkward give Ali a lot of trouble, speed of Ali makes the difference in a close Decision 8-7, 9-6, 7-7-1

 

You chinese yes ?

 

Ali by UD or late TKO via cuts.

 

Before totally writing Vitali off, you need to look at Ali's opponents. I would be correct in saying that Vitali would be the biggest opponent, wouldnt i. And certainly the biggest opponent who uses his reach and a jab.

Probably the closest that Ali fought to Vitali was Bugner, and Bugner did cause some problems for Ali, even though he was pretty much outclassed. I think that Vitali is probably better than bugner by quite a decent amount.

We know that Vitali wil shoot out a power jab from the low guard position, every time Ali hits, but the problem he has is that Ali will land two or three shots to one. And i believe, like with Foreman, he will regularly plant his feet, and perhaps even land the lead right with regularity. Vitali is big and strong, but he doesnt have that much power and relies on wearing down Ali. Ali never had problems with taking power shots and i think that Vitali will be unable to wear him down (a prime version anyway). One has to wonder whether Ali would employ the rope a dope against Vitali. I think he might. It would draw Vitali in, where he would not do too much damage and allow Ali to land heavily when he chose to. I have trouble seeing anything but an Ali KO. But, a prediction for Vitali is not totally ridiculous.

 

I think its especially hard to predict fantasy fights involving Vitali because of his combination of size, good chin and unorthodox style. I quite like the analysis posted above but Ali KO'ing Vitali seems pretty farfetched to me.

 

He Ko D the iron chinned Foreman.

I think it is a combination of speed and stamina which would lead to the KO (perhaps even a tko). Ali stopped Foreman, Bonavena, Liston, Wepner, Folley, Ellis, Williams, Quarry. All good solid chins. I dont think stopping vitali is far fetched.

 

When did Vitali ever come close to defeating a heavyweight that compares to a prime muhammad ali?
