    Yes, but Lewis then hit him with a short right, but couldn't get out the way fast enough to let Vitali fall, as Vitali was doing everything in his power to hold himself up on Lewis.

    I can also confirm that, to me it seemed that Vitali is ready to fall in that very moment. I am never going to forget how upset was Vitali when the referee stopped the fight. Respect to both man, its going to be a while before we see two legends fighting each other again.

    So is it his superb defense that he's never been on the canvas or his iron chin?

    you bring up posts I made 5 years ago as a teenager when I was high/intoxicated to prove a point?

    My opinions on boxing have changed a lot since 2009.


    Bottom line is this. Wladinir takes on the best/ most dangerous heavyweights in the division while vitali does not. Vitalis best opponent since his comeback is solis which is a controversial win. Adamek and Arreola( whom you claim would give wladinir a hard time lol) are not top ten heavyweights anymore and were never elite heavyweights to begin with

    1. It's not Uncle Boxed's fault you're a young stoner who changes his mind whenever it suits him and is absurdly biased about his opinions so that when he changes them he looks silly in retrospect.

    2. I never argued Adamek or Arreola were elite heavyweights. Only that they're good heavyweights. There are only two elite heavyweight names around who are still relevant and one isn't elite anymore, that I can see.

    3. What I claimed is that Arreola matches up better with Wlad, with more of a chance than several fighters who are of a higher level-not a strange opinion at all. It happens all the time in boxing. I never contended that he would win, only that he would be more stylistically dangerous than better fighters like Chagaev and Ibragimov were.

    4. Solis being Vitali's best opponent is arguable, and completely arguable at that.

    5. I never claimed that Wladimir didn't take on the better opponents. I've always claimed the exact opposite. :blood My only and singular contention is that you ridiculously underrate Adamek and someone you formerly rated in Arreola for no apparent reason but to serve your vagenda (vaginal agenda) against Vitali for the purpose of bigging up Wladimir, your man-crush, even though it's thoroughly unnecessary, by deliberately saying ridiculous and clearly untrue statements, running down Vitali's few top name opponents.

    Even you rated Adamek the fourth heavyweight in the world, after Klitschko, Klitschko and Haye...in 2011...which was not five years ago and the same year Vitali faced him.

    Fourth...but he has no speed of hand or foot or athleticism or chin to speak of...according to you. Now Vitali's beaten him simple. :lol: In July of 2011 Adamek was the number four heavyweight, but after September of 2011, he's fokin' garbage. I wonder why. Why, that's not transparent in the slightest. Or were you just trying to make a point while you were high? I'll tell you what, you start marking down which posts you're high for, and I'll stop using those to demonstrate how biased you are later, laddie. :p Okay? :hat

    He is probably at 80%, that being said he should retire. At 42 he has accomplished all he can, and now he should concentrate on life outside of the ring.

    Accomplished what recently ?? Beating up an average journeyman (arreola) , who he couldnt drop.

    beating up a cruiserweight (adamek)

    beating up a way past prime and slow non-engaging punching bag (briggs)

    Lewis ruined that man in 2003 --TKO 6 . RETIRE VITALI !

    Vitali will knock Stiverne out first, then I hope he goes ahead an knocks Wilder out. He still has a lot more than the other heavyweights. I do not hear any of the Klitschko haters calling for Hopkins to retire and Hell, he is older than Vitali. Hopkins is almost 50! When are you going to call for him to retire? Hopkins refused to fight Kovalev. Where's all the rage?

    By the way, I did not vote in such a biased pole.............Why don't you get Wilder to fight Vitali after Stiverne.................Vitali will knock Stiverne out, so should Wilder retire? He won't fight anyone in the top 100! Hell, Arreola was ranked at the top, was a mandatory, was HBO's highest rated fight of the year!!!!!!! Vitali fought Arreola when Arreola was on top, in LA!!!!!!! Vitali stopped Arreola, Stiverne cold not do that, plus, Arreola had Stiverne in trouble in the 8th round, he sure never had Vitali in trouble at any time. Vitali won every round easily.
