Why do you ONLY go into the threads of the fighters you hate. You are only on this forum to troll and minimize the fighters you hate. Very strange and miserable poster.
You are an old Indian guy who's at least middle aged with a racist agenda, who is just on a boxing forum to troll and minimize top white fighters who have made more money and had more success than you or any member of your family could ever dream of. You are a sad, sad, sad little man.
Whats been said has been said. Down playing those facts isn't making a defence for Vitali. Its up to you to draw a comparison. Until you do , Povetkin remains higher on the chin list than Vitali. 1) Liakhovich pitched a shut out against Briggs until he was caught and taken out in the last round 2) Briggs retired after his next fight. 3) When he fought Vitali 4 years later he was a 40 year old man , to make matters worse he tore his bicep in the opening round. He never landed a glove on Vitali. You have no point. There was no point tying that. Are you just looking up boxrec and posting what you see? Lets stoop to your level. Helenius did destroy Brewster , correct. He also dominated Peter. Brewster destroyed Wlad and Peter took him life and death. Helenius beat those guys far easier than Wlad did, that must mean Helenius was better than Wlad right?? Quit making a fool out of yourself. Brewster was a punch bag at that point of his career. He sustained a career ending beating in the Liaovich fight 4 years earlier. Prime Brewster blows Helenius away worse than he did Wladimir. But again , down playing Brewsters proven iron beard is not making any argument for Vitali's. He never endured the wars Brewster did. Vitali LOST the only war he was ever in. Brewster didn't. Brewster has a chin thats proven better than Vitali's. Correct. He landed only a few solid hits on Byrds head over 12 rounds. Kinda like how Sanders only landed 1 or 2 good shots on Vitali. Difference is Tua was prime and Sanders was not even a boxer at the time he fought Vitali. Plus Tua hit harder than Sanders as evidenced by the shots Rahman couldn't take off Tua , but could take off Sanders. You've already been told , but you have stuck your fingers in your ears and pretended like you weren't. Once more , 218 pound Mavrović never went down and he took way more flush uppercuts than Vitali did. Thats just one example. Another one is Ross Purity. Sander belted him non stop for 12 rounds and never put a dent in him. He never stopped coming forward unlike Vitali who felt one punch from Sanders and immediately ran to the other side of the ring in a nano second. Purrity and the average chinned Rahman both took way more shots off a much better version of Sanders. Getting touched by Sanders doesn't make Vitali an ironed chinned warrior. And Sanders is not an elite puncher. He NEVER stopped anyone apart from glass chinned Wlad. Summary : You act as Vitali was the only challenger Lewis layed a glove on. Washed up Tony Tucker done better against Lewis than Vitali did. Quite possibly the most ignorant statement i have ever read on this forum. He fought ONE puncher - Lewis. A fight in which his legs buckled off a jab and an uppercut sent him staggering all over the ring. And it wasn't even a heavy uppercut. Understand the dynamics of punching. An uppercut is going to be more powerful on impact against a shorter opponent than it is on a taller opponent. Vitali is taller than Lewis , by the time the uppercut reached his chin , it had less power on it than the uppercuts Lewis was drilling into smaller guys - Mercer , Holyfield , Mavrović and Tyson. Lewis almost ripped Tyson head off with 3 consecutive uppercuts in the first round. Tyson took them like they were nothing , never hit the canvas until 8 rounds later. . And at that stage Tyson was finished , just a shell of his former self fighting possibly the best version of Lewis. Vitali was in his absolute prime fighting the worst version of Lewis.
And Mr. Outstock thinks the shot Lewis landed on Vitali to quote him " And it wasn't even a heavy uppercut " The guy either is either here to pull legs or has no clue, as that uppercut finishes most heavies without a second needed shot! Who else wants a turn at this piñata?
Then why didn't it?? Lewis hit Mavrović , Mercer , Holyfield and Tyson with better and more powerful uppercuts and he didn't knock them out. All smaller guys than Vitali which meant the impact of the uppercut had much greater force. . You can't get full leverage on an uppercut against a taller guy with his chin high up in the air. You are a pig headed , ignorant fool. You are either denying the laws of physics are you just don't understand the dynamics of punching. Look , words clearly fly over your head , so lets show you footage. 20:15 - GLASS jawed Morrison takes a flush uppercut and left hook . It doesn't do anything to him 20:26 - GLASS jawed Morrison takes an uppercut so savage that the sound of it was like a shot gun blast. Other than his knee touching the canvas for a split second , his legs and demeanor were totally fine. The same uppercut , only with less power (because of height) had Vitali all over the place and its possible that he only remained upright because he was holding on for dear life. This content is protected So , no , that uppercut wouldn't finish off any solid heavy weight , cos as you just saw , it didn't finish off Morrison's glass chin. The SAME uppercut couldn't even DROP Holyfield over 24 rounds. I can only assume that never saw those fights in your life. I suggest you go and take a look so you can see how uneducated you sound on this topic.. Until then , school is out for you palooka..
40 odd pro fights at heavyweight against enough decent punchers and he didn’t touch the canvass. Mind you not like he was easy to hit given his range but a few bombs landed. But he had a very solid chin.
Lewis knocked down Morrison with a JAB. He also knocked Morrison out with a LEFT hook his weakest punch. Foreman hit Morrison with numerous shots to the head,what did that do? Foreman must be a feather fist huh? Lol Lewis had Vitali all over the place ? Not from any punch otherwise you didn't watch that fight, Vitaly was also tired when he took that uppercut. You guys continue to fail that fighters get up for certain fights mentally, chins can be rated several ways. Never going down is just one, and fighting any power puncher added to that would show a credible chin. Do you guys really think that upper cut was the only hard punch landed? How about the hard straight right in the beginning of round 2? Give Vitali at least 2 punches he took...How about the monster left hook Lewis hit him with in round 5 off his stool the one Steward said would put him down and didn't even budge him? .lol
