Sonny Liston vs. Vitali Klitschko

when McGrain is on form I love watching him argue.

 

It'll be a long while until anything tops "I scored it for Holmes 8-3-1"

 

Vitali had 60 stitches inserted in the cuts on his face. There is one full of it here.


You.

 

All boxers say they are ready for a big fight unless injured. That is a moot point if you have been watching boxing for decades. Whether they are really ready can be a different story!

If you think less than 2 weeks is enough to prepare for the best opponent you've ever faced, just say so McGrain

If you think training for 10 rounds vs a non-name is the same as training for 12 rounds vs the lineal champion, just say so McGrain.

Not answering the above proves my points! But they were what Vitali was training for.

Until then I'll stand on all points made which include Vitali's form improved post-Lewis.

 

So says the guy who's wrong more than a broken clock! Vitali was training for Purity you said?

Even if you corrected this at a later date after I pointed out for you, it simply underscores your lack of knowledge of the facts.

So spare me who's full of it. That sir is you. As I said before you should have flush handles for ears.

Back to the thread...

 

I'd favour Vitali as Liston has two terrible displays on his cv and Vitali doesn't have one. He also couldn't put away a journeyman called Bert Whitehurst on two separate occasions, one time is forgivable but two isn't. His only excuse can be the same mob influences that dropped him like a bag of spuds vs Ali. No, Vitali holds the aces.

 

Pretty awful logic on every point.

 

Logic is that Liston has several indifferent displays on his resume, Vitali doesn't. Fact.

 

That might be relevant if their careers were comparable, which they are not.

 

So don't compare resumes for ko's, records of men beaten, prime years, losses and any decisions needed :silly

Just checking his record again he didn't stop one guy with his 0 intact, except Ali and we know what happened there. Patterson was two excellent wins but he'd been stopped early before.

 

Vitali had the same notice to fight Lewis as Lewis had to fight him. Lewis was training to fight a 6'2" Kirk Johnson whose best wins were over Maskaev and Donald,[huge motivation there then] with Johnson's injury Lennox was suddenly faced with the prospect of a 6'7" opponent. Vitali was to meet Cedric Boswell on the undercard ,Boswell is 6'3" with an 81" reach.Lewis had to make more of an adjustment than Vitali.
Vitali was stopped, get over it!
