    Klitschko land ... when a Klit gets KTFO it doesn't actually count if the Klit was ahead on the cards at the time

    His chin is massively overrated ... the only person to ever really connect to it regularly was buffet gorging Lewis and he claimed to see all of his punches so he was able to brace for them.

    Since when does a 19 year old vitali that's in a whole different sport have to do anything with boxing ?

    Vitali haters going on full gears, your monitors must be sticking badly from all the happy wanking you've been doing since this video was shown

    I'm not defending Vittles, he got KTFO'd by a textbook kick, and he should admit it, but the fact is, this was a completely different sport than boxing

    on a related topic, didn't Maskaev KO Vitali in the ams? any footage of it?

    I wasn't really talking about Badr Hari getting KTFO by a kick, though I just saw it.
    And it was even worse than seeing Khan his glass shatter.

    But I've also seen him getting knocked down by a rangefinder jab

    Not in his "chin prime" yet?

    Or how about now since he's ducking Haye and Charr?

    That was kickboxing a kick can carry up to two times more power then a punch very common end thread.

    They are also easier to see coming, hence easier to avoid.

    All combat sports are valid for evaluation when assessing a fighters durability.

    The power difference between a punch and a kick are quite different though I wouldn't completely say he has a glass chin because of that.

    Also, Vitali was poisoned.

    Your point with that sentence?

    Also the Charr stoppage was a disgrace and should be changed to a NC.
    Vitali was constantly using his thumb

    I think 20 years as a pro boxer proved that he's a little durable when it comes to chin wouldn't you think ?
    There's not one kickboxer that's never been down I bet it happens in that sport.

    That was from a clash of heads, not a valid strike.

    Vitali was KTFO from a kick not a headbutt.

    It was a short right that did the most damage, also a headbutt doesn't do merely the same damage as a kick.
    But if you say so I can use your logic to make argument for Corrie Sanders - Wlad becoming NC2. Which I wouldn't really like to do.

    Also what is your point again?
