    If he ate that massive LL uppercut, than he can take anything Butterbean throws at him

    Only time I've ever seen Vitali knocked out was when some guy threw a crazy tornado kick that landed square on his jaw in kickboxing

    The Lewis Uppercut was precicesly what i had in mind when making the thread

    NO ONE has withstood a flush Butterbomb though. NO ONE

    He took one of the hardest uppercuts I've ever seen from Lennox Lewis.... That shot would have flattened 99% of the division at the time. He'd anything Butterbean threw at him like candy. Although Butterbean wouldn't be able to touch him, he was a glorified clubfighter even at his best.

    And its not about if he could land it - Vitali would have to stand there and see if he could take it

    He can take a hellacious uppercut that none of us have forgotten over a decade later..... but what about a 400lb hook?

    No chance whatsoever :deal

    Butterbean's knock out of Bart Gunn at Wrestlemania 15 was one of the best wins of the last 25 years. That same punch takes Vitali out. :good

    Heres a little background to that one Hans - Dr Death Steve Williams was brought in expected to win that tournament with relative ease. When Bart beat him up, they brought Butterbean in to punish him

    The beatdown Butterbean gave one of the Jackass boys was pretty savage too. Those guys usually loved pain, but they sure as hell didnt love this :lol:

    Meanwhile featherfisted Mayweather landed a combination on the face of a kneeling Bigshow and gave him a runny nose

    Floyd's win over the Big Show is one of the most impressive wins of all time. :nod

    The uppercut Lewis landed on him would have dropped a ****ing elephant. Vatili has one of the greatest chins in the history of boxing.

    Prime larry Holmes was almost starched in the 10th round by butterbean. I thought bean was robbed to be fair.
