    This.

    Vitaly has learned to pace himself both for stamina, and to avoid injury.

    Mostly deluded Brit & American boxing fans who can't stand an Eastern Euro kicking the **** outta their countrymen.

    Imo he still hits very hard. Too me it's more that Vitali is wearing the grant gloves instead of his famous reyes gloves. But again he still hits very hard and is still beating up opponents like nothing.

    It's nothing but the time difference. The sad and disgraced Haye fans are all up past midnight and they're drunk. So, they come on here and talk about how Haye really might possibly maybe have a chance against a 40-year-old Vitali. It's sad and pathetic, but predictable. :roll:

    For the record I agree with those posting that it's a combination of things such as Briggs' heart, a bit of age settling in & Vitali doesn't commit to the punches as much because he has a history of hand injuries. I mean look at the size of Shannon's head!

    If Haye really thought he had the skills, power & chin to hang with either Klitschko he would've signed to fight one of them already..................instead of Harrison :lol: :rofl

    Silly Brit wankers.
     
  12. Gloves have nothing to do with it:-:)huh the guy's almost 40, and Briggs has a head of stone, and just had a lotta Heart and didn't quit, a lot of VK'S opponents went the quitting route..

    The punches that knock you out are those you cant see and when you put your body behind it. Usually that happens when there is an exchange in punches.

    Klitschko is an arm puncher and he doesnt commit to his punches, just strong enough to cause damage. And he doesnt follow up. He stuns his opponent with single punches and then lets them go and repeats it for the course of the fight.

    Saleta was his sparring partner and said he had the heaviest hands he has ever felt.

    Not a bit. Feel free to debate the facts, Joe Louis (one of my favorites) actually fought the famous bum of the month club because there wasn't any decent Heavys to challenge him. Holmes fought many a bum & he rarely knocked them out. Johnson fought a list of bums & has beens & so did Marciano. Those are the facts, consider yourself schooled.

    Exactly. He has the heaviest arm punches I've ever seen but he's not a one punch KO artist like Wladimir or Lennox.
