What made him the man...??? He won the championship by default, beating someone other than LL...something that in itself may have proven to be unimportant over time. However, it can't be overlooked since he never did **** after winning the default championship. He never established dominance over the division. He was not the man.

And please remember he did not beat Lewis, he was stopped on cuts, before the eventual KO that Lewis would have dropped on him.

were talking about brian here... the guy that went toe to toe with tyson, who was all about ready to own boxing as we know it until tyson landed that lucky punch.

Well that's settled it then.

Vitali P4P All-time #3. Just behind Valuev and Tye Fields.

Vitali uses his size to a great advantage obvisously. Vitali has such long arms, he can fight on the outside of range of opponent to land, while Vitali can still bust opponents up due to his reach . It is a massive advatage being tall in boxing.

Espcially , if someone could build a time machine you would find out just how much size matters!! Like Vitali is going to get his ass beat by a 5'11 195 lbs HW of the past.

He was 6'3" but nice try. Chris Byrd was the 195 pounder.:yep

Yes, Vitali was never dominant and was never Lineal.

Marvin Hart was also never dominant and wasn't Lineal and he was considered the man. In fact, most HW Champions haven't been dominant except the really great ones.

Head to head, this is a really close fight. Both guys faced similar opposition, but lost in their marquee fights. Nielson didnt look the prettiest, but otherwise a good fighter with a solid chin. I say its a pickem
