    The fact Haye will be considered in Vitalis best 3 wins tells us all we need to know.

    Any other ATG Haye would be no more than a footnote.

    On Vitali's ability to control the ring and his opponent.
    And his ability to get a big leverage out of his size. There are other big (6'6'' plus) boxers, but except for the Klitschkos, nobody seems to be able to actually USE the size to its fullest. Lennox could, and ruled the division. Dimitrenko and Valuev can't. Helenius is learning it.

    And I have to add, that the Vitali of May 2010 is NOT the prime one I'd put into a fantasy time travel match with a prime ATG like Louis.

    And you think that´s enough? Carnera was better than Vitali, Buddy Baer as good. both got destroyed by Louis.

    Klitchkos are the best wether you like it or not. They are dominant force and can't be beat in this generation of Heavies.They're just too big too strong for any heavies out there I don't seen any one pose a threat not even HAYE.

    Not only are you wrong but your fail makes you look ******ed. Please stop. Do you think Adamek can beat a prime Vitali? AND ADAMEK IS BIGGER THEN LOUIS YOU MORON.

    Good decision. :good



    Are some people here seriously arguing that Vitali's resume is better than that of Louis? :nut

    And Louis would thrash Adamek in about 3 rounds.

    1. Ali
    2. Holmes
    3. Holyfield
    4. Tyson
    5. Lewis
    6. Foreman
    7. Liston
    8. Bowe
    9. Frazier
    10. Ike
    11. Witherspoon

    There's eleven guys who I think would kick Klit's ass in their respective primes. I would be keen to know who you think he would beat on that list. I excluded Louis, Patterson, Marciano, Johnson, Dempsey etc because quite frankly they are too small.

    Frazier is a terrible style match as well but it wouldn't surprise me if Smoke punched his teeth in.

    No he wouldn't. Adamek beats Louis by UD.

    People don't understand that boxing has evolved.

    A Joe Louis, with today's training, drugs and diet could be a very good CW.

    Wow, I should immediately stop expressing myself because you told me to **** off. Do you think I would give a flying **** about your words? You decided to play it tough because you have no arguments whatsoever.

    The fact is you know basically nothing about Louis opponents. You have seen some highlights and some few poor quality fights. You have no idea about the quality of some his opponents who would not be considered professional fighters in nowadays terms. I repeat for you "no professionals".

    Besides, I was comparing Vitaliy KlitschKO with champions since WBA and WBC were established because we have more footage of those times. Louis fought before that but you missed that in my post since you were so eager to attack me.
