    Same here. Up till the 6th round Vitaly was not "dominating" him.

    You don't have to imagine. At the same age Tyson was battered into submission by Kevin McBride.

    I had him winning the 4th.

    Boring fight, Vitali using his size to just do enough to win rounds rather than dominating, he put the pressure on near the end but his opponent looked pretty clueless on how to fight a bigger man.

    I wasn't upset was Albert at all. I thought he did what he could do. He did more than what what gives him credit for or at least try to. At least he try to do some head movement just got caught when tried. He would try to duck to his left coming in and Vitali would hit him with that left hook. Albert did land some good shots. I would like to see Albert try to make a true run for a title shot next time though. I want to see how he fairs with guys his size Like Peters, Arreola, chambers on so on. When Adamek beats Michael Grant (if he does never know) I wouldn't mind these two going at it.

    and Ali was beaten up by trevor berbick and julio cesar chavez lost to willie wise...and alexis arquello lost to the PINK CAT Scott Walker....whats your point as to how a guy finishes up his career? obviously shells. McBride wouldnt have lasted a round with a hungry in his prime/ trained tyson

    None, but Sosnowski was not there just to survive. He gave it all and deserves respect for his performance.

    I don't agree with this analysis at all. While Sosnowski did not change his strategy throughout the fight, he was in fact a relatively quick, lateral moving target until he started gassing out in th 9th round. Why do suppose Vitali kept missing Sosnowski throughout the entire fight, especially with power shots? Sosnowski moved and moved quite effectively and when he stopped moving Vitali pounced and finally found target for his power shots. Defensively, Sosnwski was sound until the 9th round. Offensively, he was more than most people hoped for, landing clean shots throughout the whole fight, albeit with lesser frequency than Vitali's jab and with much less force because he had to reach in with virtually every punch he threw, because of the size disparity. Sosnowski did better than the vast majority of Vitali's past opponents. He was active and was relatively hard to find, especially with power shots. IMO Sosnowski could compete with some fighters at the top 10 level.

    I gave Sos one round, but the majority of rounds were competative, not necissarily very close but competative nevertheless. This was a much better fight than the Banks and Gavon clinch fest extreme that preceeded it.
