Hey there, jab my homie. I was wondering where you are and here is where I find you bashing the klits as usual. :yep

 

Michael Spinks...heavyweight....he had a record of 4-1 at heavyweight,one of those wins was against Stepfan Tangstad...slap yourself!

Archie Moore...ATG Heavyweight????

Seriously dude,I could go on but that list SUCKS!

 

Head to head I think he's an absolute monster. Legacy wise, he falls short. I can't call a guy an ATG who's best wins are Herbie Hide, Corrie Sanders, Sam Peter, and Kirk Johnson. In his defense, his defeat to Chris Byrd is a tad over stated. He basically dominated that fight and quit due to an injury that had nothing to do with anything Byrd did to him.. The Lewis defeat is a bit harder to justify. He fought gallantly in that match and was probably winning, before that huge cut was opened. But he still lost to a man who was off for a full year, fighting at a career high weight, and at 37 years of age was on the ass end of his career.. I like Vitali and would pick him to beat a number of hall of fame heavy's due to his size, strength, chin and outside fighting game. But his resume doesn't crack the top 20 for me.. Head to head and legacy are two totally different animals.

 

he beat larry homles that one win is better that vitalis whole resume dick weed, Archie Moore had the most ko's of any boxer in the sport, u need to go a study youngin, he beat floyd patterson for the title again better than anybody quitali has ever beat.

 

His resume is terrible but through no fault of his own, it's just a dire era of heavyweight Boxing. If he was in a different era he could have been one of the greatest but he wasn't, he's in this era so his resume is still ****ing terrible.

 

6. He ducked David Haye and SNV
