I've seen a lot of discussion about Vitali Klitschko lately...

Here's the difference.... Lewis avenged his OWN losses.. Vitali and Wlad didn't, with the exception of Wlad winning a rematch against a diminished Brewster.. If you took the time to read doublechin's post in its entirety then you'd understand the origin of the conversation and its meaning.

 

We've all see MANY champs duck their #1 contender, or simply wait until he ages or weakens to " make the fight ". That is the truth. We know that, so its really not out of the ordinary not to see a super title fight match.

Were Johnson and Langford, McVey, and Jeanette brothers? NO

How about Dempsey and Wills or Greb? NO

Had Lewis fought Tyson and Holyfield 5-10 years earlier, his resume had he won would really go up or down? See my point? Lewis waited until the odds were greatly in his favor.

The Klitschko's did not make their name on past their prime has been champion. They could have wrecked Bowe, Morrer, Holy or Tyson. We all know this.

Instead they both cleaned out the division. The only man they did not beat was the one guy who ducked a re-match ( Lewis ) All others were defeated.

In the Klitschko's case they fought them ALL while they were, young, prime, or post prime status. Such longevity in the time of punchers is impressive.

PS: Lewis always had the opportunity to avenge his losses. Vitali and Wlad in a practical sense did not. However, Lewis never gave ONE re-match to a tough fight that he won in Mercer, Burno, or Klitschko.

 

10 years before holyfield, lewis was 3-0 with no case to fight for the british title, nevermind holyfield.

10 years before Tyson, lewis had not yet won the commonwealth title, and Tyson was soon to be in prison...

kliturd self destructs once aga....

 

Im not taking that away from him,but that has nothing to do with both brothers obligated to fight others at different times. Now Brewster is diminished...and Tucker wasn't a competitive fight for Lewis?...gotcha...

 

Magoo,

Vitali fought Sanders for the Ring Magazine champion, and a belt that he did not have first. Revenge was secondary.

Lewis would not re-match Vitali. And to be truthful a Don King Controlled Byrd did not want a re-match with his belt on the line either.

Vitali fought Peter because he happened to have the WBC belt he relinquished. Not because he gave Wlad a good fight.

Wlad fought Byrd because his promoter had the right connection for the WBO belt which Byrd had.

What would a re-match vs Purity do for Wlad? He wasn't close to ranked when Wlad was champion.

The above reasons tell the tale. It was not a case of I'll beat him for you first and foremost. That was the media angle to hype the fights. I think you'll get it right if you think about it.

 

Why not fight Holy in 1993-1997?! You're a moron.

Why not offer Bowe a fight when Bowe had no belt? Bowe would take that match.

Why not fight Tyson in the 1990's? Why wait for him to be old and shot?

HAHAHAHA

 

Your so indoctrinated, you don't even know you've been indoctrinated.

They, this, they that. Whats wrong with he? You simply accept they are a tag team.

 

Why for so many years did the Klit's have a " If you beat me you have to fight my brother " clause in their contracts?

 

no the answer to why not fight holy in 93-97 is not you are a moron. this is not a monty python sketch its a serious discussion. kliturd self destructs once again.

bowe didn't want a fight with lewis, this was why he dumped his belt.
kliturd self destructs once again.

Tyson was finished after prison, there was no sense is going after him after that.
kliturd...you guessed it.. but at least u laughed manically this time whilst blowin yourself up, improvement.


that's probably the reason lewis didn't chase the shot Tyson, until istupid money meant he had to before he retired.

 

Lewis DID chase a shot Tyson.
That's all he talked about after beating Holyfield.

It was Tyson who wasn't ready, right up to the last Tyson was possibly trying to sabotage the fight. But he owed a lot of money and everyone could make money off him, so he the fight was inevitable.

 

Isnt Lewis older than Tyson? I may be wrong, im not sure. The point is how would Lewis know he was going to be a shot fighter? Couldnt it have been Lewis instead of Tyson that aged ringwise while waiting. That it didnt happen that way is irrelevant, he simply couldnt have known.

 

Its not hard at all 6'7 250 ,chin ,skill is more than he needs. He simply didn't exist in the OLd days and the way MOST preach about Carnera being good on here is a good measuring stick considering even Bert Sugar in his autobiography called him the worst HW champ in history.

 

this being an argument against vitali being considered one of the more worse HW titlists in HW history.


kliturd self destructs with circular reasoning once again

 

I self destructed how?Carnera had little skills,most cant see this for some odd reason...Vitali is Elite. If Carnera was considered good that would make Vitali great,which he would be,if Carnera had fought like a skilled big man so would he,he obviously wasn't a born fighter which is why he was weight lifter...are you pretending to be stupid now?Wait don't answer that
