    Vitali also throws a lot of arm punches. Ive hardly ever seen him use his body torque and punch with leverage. I doubt he has the coordination too do so.

    ali or clay then was 20 when he fought doug jones. he'd been pro not long but still fighting the best contenders at such an early age. he got the title at just 22 & at his peak he was 24/25 then banned undefeated champ in the peoples eyes. how old were fighters like the legendary rocky marciano when they even won the title?

    Vitali is not a pressure fighter, which is the best style vs a slick fast boxer, and he has slow hands and feet. Ali has lightning fast hand and foot speed. Ali wil be elusive and accurate with his jab and right hands from the outside IMO, and will clinch on the inside. Vitali would hit air all night and his face would get slowly cut to ribbons. Ali wins by TKO on cuts late in the fight.
     
  4. Ali would win for sure, i do not know if he would do by ud or tko by cuts. Vitali is good and movile for his size, but is too slow compared with ali. Ali would outbox him without great problems. And vitali has the same reach than ali.

    Ali comfortable UD. Hands and feet too far, too much variety of punche. Will make Klitschko look slow.

    Why would you revive this dead thread again ?

    Anyways Ali outclasses Vitali anyday. Even 74 Ali.

    Why have you not responded to Mcgrain's post where where he proved you were bullshitting about the Ali Cooper fight? At least admit you were utterly and completely wrong about Ali being "nearly knocked out."

    Vlad is greater than Ali due to having a phd???

    I wonder how Vlad would fare against Stephen Hawking? Funnily enough they both talk with a similar accent......

    Ali by clear, but close, UD.

    Vitali causes him alot of problems along the way with his size advantage and awkward style though.

    No I don't even think it would be close.
    Ali would be ahead a few points.
