The holograms for Vitali's introduction would all beat him.

I don't see why the foreman fight is such a sure bet. I haven't seen Foreman with someone who is a lot bigger than him and at the same time has pretty good power and skills.

Vitali is probably stronger, not harder hitting, but hard to push around and outmuscle. I don't see Foreman being able to fight his usual push the other guy around, outmuscle and then outpower him fight.

Also I like the way vitali throws his punches, rarely ever wildly, always very straight down the middle, he's not wide-open.


I might be forgetting some foreman fights, not sure. I don't remember a similar match-up.

Still, I give Vitali a chance.

 

Just Foremans power was something Godly. As is Tysons I think Tyson stands a very good chance. But it wouldnt be a sure thing. Holy stands a chance also for a win. But Foreman to me takes him out.

 

Great win by Vitlay, but this is hilarous.

After the first couple of rounds, Lewis was gladly taking a couple of Vitlays punches to land one of his own. Vitlay wobbled Lewis in the second round, but couldn't finish him. clearly (and Lewis said so later), that was his best chance. Lewis said something like "Vitlay had blown his wad". So his punches were lsoing steam as the fight went on.

He threw all pretence of technique out of the window, and turned into into a war of attrition.

Lewis, apparently shaky chin and all, won the war half way through the fight.

Scorecards have no bearing on this fight for Gods sake. Look at the price Vitlay had to pay to be 4-2 up.

 

I just don't see it man, and I like George. His second career included decision loss to contender level guys with worse chins than VK's like Morrison and Schultz (who should've won but got robbed).

Early Foreman had a much better chance but still had conditioning issues and was apt to get outboxed, but he still had that cannon of a shot and was better at delivering it.

I'd love to have seen Vitali vs early Foreman. Then again, I'd still love to see old Forman vs VK, I just wouldn't like George's chances in that one.

 

That was one of the best entrances I have ever seen.

 

Yeah if Alex Stewart could disfigure George's face, just imagine what Vitali would do.

 

in your opinion.

not mine.

 

Foreman wins by stoppage in the mid rounds.

Frazier wins by late TKO on cuts after he gets going and takes him out.

Past Prime Lewis all ready beat him.

Holyfield beats him by UD. Holy simply outworks him.

Tyson by KO in the early rounds. Vitali can't take Tyson bomb forever.

 

ah gotta love it when a Klitschko wins...

it's the same thing every time afterwards... a plethora of threads about the former ATGs who would beat them..

 

And they speak in a way which implies that the ATG's would just casually walk in and have their way... :-(

 

Due to injuries..yes, but tell me, who was left 4 years before? Rahman? Do you really think he ducked him? If so, you can't be serious.

 

They are indeed all greater than Vitali legacy-wise but head to head I think Vitali beats them all except Lewis. Vitali has an iron chin and his huge height, weight and strength advantage would be a real problem for the rest. Young Foreman might overwhelm him early on but those midgets would be destroyed by big bro.

 

time bandits who wont face the fact that the world is globalising and boxing is going hand in hand with that,they would rather hanker on to fruitless philosophies about how the "greats" would fare now and rather than give credit where it is due they massage there bruised and aching patriotic hearts while espousing about the greatness of times past and the lameness of the current crop,so sad.

 

Frazier - Vitali has a good shot at taking this one

Foreman tko's him on cuts.

Lewis UD's him or tkos him on cuts.

Tyson - close but clear UD or tko - would get inside easily and give Vitali big trouble

Holyfield 50/50

 

If we are talking primes here no doubt about it.
