    Not really pull ups they are kipping pull ups but still very impressive considering his age and especially his weight, he's clearly still in great shape.

    Ugly crossfit pull ups, but probably better shape than 99 % of heavyweight fighters. 8 weeks training camp and Vit would knock out dudes like Whyte, Pulev, Kabayel etc..

    He couldn’t knock out chisora when he was in his prime so the chances of him knocking out whyte now at 50 are slim to nonexistent.

    2012 Vitali Klitschko is prime? He was also boxing with a torn shoulder from fourth round in that bout.

    People actually think this man could beat Fury in a fight

    You call 40 y.o Vitali who had fought vs Chisora and had damn long years ago serious problems with shoulder and during recent years before this also back problems as prime Vitali?
    LOL. Almost 1 handed 40 y.o not " hungry " and rich Vitali with serious health problems had outboxed Chisora and after this Chisora not only had get very decent paycheck, also next fight vs Haye after this, then next fight vs Fury, then he appeared enough good for Whyte to fight with, then recently he looks that was still good enough to fight vs Usyk and Parker for good $.

    Stuff that Vitali's shoulder heavily sucks was known before he he had 1 st lost in pro boxing.

    Yeah, he had ATG level chin and all claims how prone to cuts are only from 1 fight vs Lewis, who was cash cow then.
    Yeah, cash cow Lewis get rematches for fights where he had been finished in distance.
    Also I think that in better shape and in Lewis size 1=1 Holyfiled and Tyson had KOed this Lewis out cold.
    Prime shape Holy for HW was ~ 208-210 lbs Holy when he with miracle had increased his muscle mass from 190 weight in limit till 208 and more weight at weigh ins for HW division.
    245 lbs prime shape Holyfiled version in Lewis size had wrecked Lewis out cold on stretch.
    The same with Mike.
    Duck King Lewis is better as bully and cash cow and definitely worse boxer than A.J too.

    Some of the hate against Vitali above is just plain weird. What is wrong with some of you creeps?

    Vitali was definitely my favorite of the two brothers…. I actually tuned in for his fights because he wasn’t afraid to go for the kill and mix it up… the beating he gave Shannon Briggs was something. He's obviously still in great shape for his age and could probably still mix it up just fine with some of the lower ranked guys.

    Not a pull up per se but still insane isn't it. Wouldnt be out of the realm for him to beat Whyte.
