That, and his avowed mentality of professional boxing being no different than a Toughman competition. "Let's just stand there and exchange punches until one of us knocks the other one out, and then go out and hit the clubs" is almost a verbatim quote from how he described his ideal night of work. If you go into every situation expecting your opponent to stand still and let you knock them out, and then don't have a backup plan, you're a very dull fighter.
If Vitali fought Briggs and won it would be another has-been in the record. If Vitali fought a guy like Adamek or Solis and won it could solidify Vitali's record if either of them goes on to become a champ later (which they both have the potential for). Anyways, didn't Briggs lose to Iggy while throwing 3 punches per round? Can anyone imagine what Vitali would do to this guy considering his tremendous workrate? This content is protected
Couldn't have said it better myself. The only fights really left for Vitali are Haye and Valuev. He should try and dust one or both of those guys and hang it up.
