http://www.klitschko.com/home/next-fight/ "Vitali Klitschko is 40 years old with a professional record of 44-2 with 40 KOs. His two defeats came only as a result of injuries and he never lost his title in the ring. Klitschko has the highest knock out percentage ever of any reigning world heavyweight champions with 91 percent." Looks as though K2 are using the Trolls on this site to write up articles for them! :rofl :rofl :rofl
Apparently a Klitschko nuthugger is weak in figuring percentages. When you take into account ALL FIGHTS------and that is how it's done by the way, you wind up with 86.96%. Didn't they teach the author of that tripe simple mathematics in school? Funny thing is, with all those stoppages, he is just marginally better to watch than his brother Wladimir. At least the paint dries a little faster in his fights.
Before his break I think he only ever went difference with Timo Hoffman. Since then he's been the distance with Kevin Johnson, Shannon Briggs (somehow) and Derek Chisora. I remember reading a stat saying how he'd stopped loads of guys in round 2 before his break. Now they all tend to be later on.
disgraceful how that frauds still trying to downplay the job Byrd did on him. never lost the belt in the ring lmao he got knocked into submission, made fraudulent excuses and ducked the rematch that he promised Byrd in the ring. easily the most disgusting attempt by some sore loser to steal the shine of a conqueror i've ever heard of in boxing. Byrd had absolutely no chance to get the full credit he rightfully deserves just because of Vitalis cowardly behavior
he's never been down on the cards. i don't believe. The byrd injury was legit. Lewis won fair and square, however he got lucky with that cut, and i know who i'd favour if they rematched straight after.
Your right he's right behind The Rock Marciano is the all time king of KO's But depending if Vitali fights on and has ko wins that could change but I don't think so
who cares thats his problem, no excuses [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fWFslbdn0Q[/ame] Byrd was the better man that night thats the only reason why he walked away with the victory and Vitali quit
True its his problem but listening to you one would think Chris kicked his ass which he couldn't he only won maybe being kind 3 rounds and that was it
You people are so blinkered that it's almost sad. Winning when the opponent suffers a serious injury is not "being the better man" - it's an extremely fortunate win. Do you seriously believe Byrd would have stood much of chance in a rematch?
he did kick Vitalis ass, Vitali quit because was scared of getting KTFO so Vitali decided to quit and to bring up excuses just to steal Byrds shine rather than trying to win and risk getting KTFO Vitali: i was hurt and close to go, couldn't see so i quit :| http://www.eastsideboxing.com/news.php?p=25212&more=1 Its is. boxing is an event based sport and if someone is unable to perform for whatever reason unless caused by a foul it is what it is, no excuses no regrets. If someones losing a fight because his chin, his shoulder or his knees were too weak, hes been proven to be weaker that night so he has to pay the price for his faults and gets beaten by a better man. it has been like that for 100 years and it'll go on. Its just that those noobs who believe in bull**** like p4p rankings that want to make a case about how some disadvantaged wimp who has to get babied by the weightclass system should be ranked higher than much stronger fighter or that being undefeated would actually mean something, have a hard time understanding what the sport is about. In Vitalis case, he could have acted a little more bravely, he could stand by his defeat like a man or he could have set the things straight in a rematch. he did neither. hes just making excuses for getting beat by the two best opponents he has met and now fights one bum after another while he takes pictures with his little brothers belt collection and acts like hes a actually champion or something
