This Vitali is better then the one that fought Lewis I believe! Heavier more experienced IMO! Would love to see Lewis of Tyson fight vs this Vitali!
Its impressive how he can still perform as well as he just did, at 38 (34), after so many injuries and being off for so long. I recall Merchant said he thought Vitali looked as good as he ever has looked. After it took him two awkward rounds to figure GOmez out, I recall some on this site were saying VItali was slowing and losing his speed and reflexes. I sure didn't see any signs of aging or slowing, or depleted stamina................. At all. He got tagged by some good shots, too.
just goes to show you simply can't sit squared up in front of a Klitschko if you aren't going to move your head. Its just target practice, simple as that. smh at what the heavyweight division has come to......David Haye...your next...I guess...:--(........:|
Vitali made his whole family cry, not just Arreola, the kids and the wife were all in tears. That would make a good avatar:nut. You have to admire Vitali though all class even in a decisive win.
I chuckled as I saw Crisco Arreolas 10 year old daughter weeping. :nono Respect to Arreola. Too bad his training regime does not match his passion for wanting to be a winner. I really did laugh out loud when he was being interviewed by Merchant and all the sudden "...........****!!!............."
IM a big CA fan! But that post fight interview was funny!! I know chris was in pain... But when he said.. "he was ****in me up, but I could of finished, ****, **** man.. **** that im coming back!! LOL I give all the credit in the world to VK! Hes been a great champion for a long time! I predicted a win via TKO for vitali.... PS: chris could still come back, he lost to an ATG in my humble opinion!!
I feel bad for Arreola beautiful and i do mean beautiful wife to watch her and kids crying after Arreola got destroyed was very very sad. I got nothing bad to say about Arreola. Even though Arreola got destroyed, he never stop trying and unlike Peter, Arreola fought like a warrior that didn't quit after getting beaten up badly from every round.
I think quitting is worse then crying cause when Arreola cry, he cry cause he try his heart out but couldn't do it and he cry cause he feels he let his fans in la that are either american or mexicans down. Peter just quit badly after he got destroyed.
''i cannot be defeated,i defeat all man!'' respect to areolla though he lasted longer than i expected.
