Cleanest fighters : contemporary and all time

I sometimes wonder if it was arrogance instead of sportsmanship which prompted his restraint, but there can sometimes be a fine line between the two principles. Either way, the bottom line is that he was indeed clean in his execution.

 

Good sport here :rofl

I would also point out monzon, very straight forward execution.

 

Apart from when he tried to kick Lennox Lewis while Lewis was trying to help him up? And him being a **** to Solis for being injured when he's the guy who gives up with 2 rounds to go while up on the cards against a light puncher?

The guy is an arsehole.

 

We were just talking about being clean fighter, and most of what you said doesn't have anything to do with it (and that includes being arsehole as well). I do not like Vitali style myself, the thing is that whatever one may think about his fights with Byrd and Solis they were clean ones.

I do not remember the accident against Lewis, but you have to admit it doesn't compare anywhere close to (for example) Holyfields constant headbutts (and ocassional elbows and low blows) or even to Lewis with his hold-and-hit strategy combined with leaning on his opponents.
