    LOL..........At least one quits while behind, rather than ahead with 2 rounds to go.

    Depends, but if it is, Liston get's the eye blinding substance on his side.

    You keep making reference to steroids. Vitali admitted to using a prescribed steroid in the 90's for some of his injuries sustained from his kickboxing career, but these were not performance enhancers. While, its certainly plausible that both Klitschko's could have used enhancers of some kind, I'm not sure that its ever been proven. To assume that they used such substances just because they're two big boys is questionable. They are naturally big people with the same genetic disposition, and a lifetime of weight training and participating in athletics. If you look at them, they are not nearly as freakish as say a pro body builder, wrestler or powerlifter.

    Vitali was 200lbs as a 21yo, yet blew upto 250lbs as a pro. Vitali failed a drugs test for anabolic steroids ofcourse hes going to come up with an excuse, ie medical steroids, he came up with excuses for the Pele Reid and Maskeev KO losses too. Hes gone to the extent of lying before so Vitalis word means little

    McCline, Holyfield, Golota are blantant roiders who were never caught, Morrison admitted Roidage but was never caught.

    There's big difference between folding against the GOAT and quitting vs Chris Byrd.

    Yes, how about a draw when both guys quit at the same time on their stools with shoulder injuries.
