    His knees are shot, Vitali can`t take a leg kick. Maybe he will be top15 but there are enough fighters who would beat him.
    Also Remy Bonjasky has problems with good boxers cause he relies much on his kicks and knees but he isnt the best boxer, but it was still enough for a (old and fat) Mercer

    Wasnt he 4-11 in kickboxing? Anyway that's a good example of closing the distance to neutralise the leg kicks as I mentioned. Could Vitali do that with shot knee's? I doubt it to be honest. He could KO anyone and with his KB experiance he'd defend leg kicks better than most boxers, but that doesnt mean they would be ineffective. KB's go through crazy conditioning on their legs, something Vitali hasnt done for years. I wouldnt right him off, but run through a K1Grand Prix?

    No

    ******s love cartoons...
    Anyway, back to the subject of him being able to run through a GP. Vitali hasnt had a kickboxing atch in what, 15 years or so? Add to that the knee and back surgeries and I honestly think he'd have trouble. We all know he's tough as ****, but his technique would be found lacking at the highest level imho.

    He was six times world champ in point kickboxing, above the waist comp.

    Not against any of the pro fighters of the division nor most of the top am's in the world due to the comp and expense not being worth travelling abroad for.

    Imagine that VK against CW and recent HW compeitor Nathan Carnage Corbett. :!::!:
