not forgotten, still consider it one of the best fights at HW in the last 10 years, even though it was pretty much one-sided
Some of Vitali's beat downs LOL at 2:18 What's going to happen to haye 5:15 are you watching haye ? [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejC7OVLEevU[/ame]
Definitely an unknown classic. . . Another one is Wlad vs. Brewster I and II, and Wlad vs. Peter I. . . Wlad used to be A LOT more aggressive, and really would open up. . . He really does have some fast hands, and especially feet. I miss the Wlad who used to throw hooks, and uppercuts along with his jab/straight right. . . And the occasional left hook. . . I'd say he throws jabs, straight rights, and left hooks at about a 10:3:1 ratio. . . . Set the straight right up with the jab. . . And set the left hook up with the straight right.
Was a good scrap, he really put a savage beating on Sanders later on, highlighting the importance of good conditioning! Has anyone ever hurt Vitali like that? Finally, the Klitschko brothers are the anathema of slickness!
Wlad vs Brewster II is a classic one? It was as one sided as a fight can be.. There was _NOTHING_ special in this fight and you considered it as a classic one? I really don't get this
It was an entertaining fight, but I think the criteria for "classic" should be a bit more selective. Sanders was dangerous in the eraly rounds, but after that it was a beatdown.
Sanders would've given a prime Tyson and Ali a run for their money in the early rounds if they were to have fought. He wasn't a good boxer though, just a big hitter with superhuman speed. Like Hamed he didn't look like a puncher but was. I don't know why he fought Vitali instead of Wlad, why Wlad rematched Peter but not Sanders. Sanders-Rahman was as good, if not better than this fight but the youtube videos are garbage for that fight. Sanders almost stopped Rahman early, than gassed.
