Vitali Klitschko Vs. Evander Holyfield? ( Both in Prime )

Alot of posters want to equate Vitali to Lewis but they refuse to look at the whole picture, and ignore many important points, regarding this fight.

1. Lewis was old and out of shape when he beat Vitali.
2. Lewis is more versatile.
3. Holyfield despite being old gave Lewis Hell.
4. Lewis roughed Tyson and Holyfield up inside.

Point 4 is the main thing here. Speed beats length, and Holyfield would definitely get inside, Vitali's complete lack of inside ability would be just 1 part of his downfall. The other would be his stamina, watch the Sanders, Williams and Byrd fights, he was in complete control of the first 2 yet looked tired as hell at the end, against Byrd he was gassing and got in trouble late.

 

It's a torn rotator cuff; it hurts like hell and is a MAJOR injury. Vitali could have never fought again if he did anymore damage to that arm.

Like I said earlier, 3 judges had Vitali in the lead by a wide margin and there is no chance for a Byrd win.

Lets be real, Byrd had no chance of winning without Vit's injury.

 

The fight was in Germany, it was alot more competitive than the scores represented, He only landed 8 more shots and was getting backed up, hell people in the arena began cheering Byrd.

 

Yes it was.

This 28 yr old in his prime machine runs circles around Bowe, Lewis and both Klitschko's..
