Vitali Klitschko vs. Tyson Fury

:rofl

Gotta love the Dino version of events :nut

 

Struggled? How can you struggle if you win every minute of every round, drop your opponent in the second round and finish him of in the fourth? atsch

 

Finished him off?:huh

Charr was illegally stopped in Vitali's corner. He wasn't allowed go to his own corner to get his cut patched up.

Vitali looked rigid and stiff as a board. He looked like C-3PO in there and was knackered after those 4 rounds.

There's a reason why he chose Charr instead of Haye. And at that time , Charr was an unranked and unknown to pretty much everybody.

There's a reason why he relinquished the belt rather than face Stiverne. He was finished.
Ain't nothing wrong with that. His career was over , but don't make silly claims like he could return tomorrow and become the HW Champion- something he never was even in his prime , fighting in the worst HW era in history.

 

You saw what happened to wlad.

Is vitali that much better than wlad that he can stop fury doing what he wants? He keeps you at range and plays it his way, there's not alot anyone can do about it,
We can all talk about older fights where this and that happened, fury has got a good head on his shoulders and I can't see him taking silly punches like he used too (or punch himself lol)
I think fury will go unbeaten for a long time.

 

I think Vitali has enough left to pull off an upset. He retired to follow a political career not because he couldn't keep winning. He's a far more well rounded fighter than Wlad, what worked against Wlad won't automatically work against Vitali.

Fury easily out pointed Wlad and Wlad was unable to switch styles, I think Vitali would do better. Firstly he can throw a ton of punches, how does Fury outpoint a guy that has in the past thrown over a 1000 punches over 12 rounds? Vitali is taller than Wlad, has better control of range, Wlad has no head/upper body movement, Vitali can slip shots better than Wlad which is why he doesn't need to clinch as much.

It won't be easy but Vitali has the skills and ability to beat him. Remember Vitali was out boxing Lewis in their fight forcing Lewis to stalk him down, will Fury really so easily out box a guy who out boxed Lewis?

If Vitali loses to Fury it will be down to age, prime for prime it's no contest.

 

a prime fury is a better sticker and mover then the sloppy old 260lb lennox lewis who gave vitali a second ******.

 

So you're claiming a retired 44 year old Vitality to win based off a losing effort he had in 2003?? Ok

 

2001-2004 version of Vitali would chop Down Fury..However as the fight with Wlad showed, Fury has good footwork and is difficult to hit clean. Vitali is getting old and slow,stifflegged. He was talking a lot about a fight with Haye, but as soon as he saw how fast and explosive haye was against Chisora, he suddenly became silent!!! Fury is taller, and stronger than haye, and would Wear the old man Down and knock him out around, round 9-10. Deal with it Guys even a god like your Vitali gets old...

 

Nice how you avoided the rest of my post and view it in a context that favours your opinion. Vitali was always the better fighter than Wlad and represents a far different style. No guarantee that just because Fury beat a faded Wlad who was a spoiler who relied on getting off first and then clinching would beat the more versatile, aggressive, higher work rate of the older brother.

You think Fury wins by throwing 30 punches a round against Vitali throwing 60-85 punches a round? Seems unlikely Fury can win a decision that way against a fighter not much smaller than him and who he can't KO.

Now is it impossible that Fury wins? No of course not, Vitali is in his 40's and been inactive. But I think Vitali is a much harder fight to win for Fury and I think Vitali can put the pressure on Fury that Wlad couldn't. He has the work rate his brother lacked, the ability to walk through shots his brother lacked, the greater versatility and aggression.

 

Based off what? Fury out boxing a faded Wlad who couldn't even throw 20 punches a round, or perhaps his schooling of Chisora who is hardly what I'd call a great stick and mover more a club and plodder, or perhaps the performance against Johnson who's so static you could mistake him for a statue in the ring.

A 260lbs Lewis would KO all the fighters Fury has faced without much difficulty at all.

 

You're post is riddled in falsities and describes a Vitali that never existed on film.

When has Vitali ever shown head/upper body movement and the ability to slip shots?
His only form of defence was to pull back in a straight line. That's why he got his face torn off by Lewis and why he was dropped and ran all over the ring from Sanders.

Fury threw just 30 shots a round because that all Wlad allowed him him throw and in return he lost almost every round. Fury won that fight in second gear. Doing what was thought to be impossible without ever having to overly exert himself.
Wlad without clinching at every opportunity would've opened up more room for Fury to connect. Which would be the case with Vitali.

Vitali never faced a multi dimensional mover like Fury in his life. He has a hard time connecting on stationary target like Byrd and Johnson who only used upper body movement. How does he land on Fury who has the whole package?
His attack is as simple as it gets. 1-2 in straight lines. No angles and no levels whatsover to his punching. He's a stiff , upright target thats not hard to find.

Lewis turned up in the worst shape of his life , fighting like a total buffoon and it was still enough to get the job done against the best ever version of Vitali.
There's isn't a performance on Vitali's whole CV that proves he could handle a guy like Fury. The thought of him beating anybody right now is a total joke.

 

Not sure if Vitali could keep up with Fury's movement this late in life, especially after 3yrs out the ring.

That said, he most certainly wouldnt be flinching and moving out of range every time Fury feigned a punch either.

He also had NO FEAR of being countered, and would have no trouble in any exchanges in a fight with anyone in boxing today.

However, Fury's not the guy who tries to walk his opponent down anymore. He uses his reach and his strangely relative athleticism which at times appears clumsy.

In spite of what ppl say about the Charr fight or the Chisora fight, he dominated both those fights, and in the Chisora bout he was dealing with an injury after the 3rd rd, DelBoys signature fights where he was competitive have that common theme...his opponent has only one effective arm to punch him with and it gives him extra time and less risk getting inside where he's most effective.

In nearly 250 rds boxed, thought it was close to that anyways....he's only been down one time to Corrie Sanders, and has scarcely lost more than 10 rds in his entire career.

Not bad at all considering his nearly 90% KO ratio.

If this fight happened in June, as some predict, I will buck the odds and put a few bucks on Vitali, the OVER, and the decision.

7-5 8-4 type. :think

 

Yeah everyone sees him for what he is these days.... A clown who irrationally hates on the Klitschkos, who picked against Wlad until he was finally right now. Now because Wlad lost to Fury he sucks and would have lost to him at any point in his career and so would Vitali. atsch

 

Why wouldn't he? He did against Charr , Chisora , Johnson and pretty much everybody who ever threw a punch at him.

A feint from Byrd was enough to send Vitali running across the ring.

You need to go back and rewatch the tape.

 

yeh but it wasnt lewis who was boxing very well against vitali was it, he was getting alot and had to outbrawl vitali to get the win.

260lb lewis the one that fought vitali was slower and plodding against fury who just danced around wlad and outmanouvered the 10year super champ.

context please, and now stick vittles of 44years old, with a fugged shoulder, hes slower than wlad, hasnt fought in years against Prime Fury a younger fitter faster fighter.
