Vitali looked stiff legged tonight. His legs seemed to be gone.

    I noticed this right off. He was lucky he was not in with a prime Tua tonight or any other aggressive fighter with a powerful overhand right or left. He out punched and out jabbed a B fighter in Arreola but he looked very uncomfortable in doing it.

    I know I sound like a hater but Vitali was showing his age tonight. A younger Vitali would have stopped Arreola early. He was hitting him with everything but he was arm punching. His legs failed him and they were never really under him.

    I agree, he was not at his best tonight. Legs, reflexes looked off to me.

    Even with this going against him. Vitali was 10 times the fighter Arreola will ever be. I think we saw the best of Arreola tonight.

    Vitali is the best heavyweight in the world by far. Nobody will beat him, he will retire. Vitali was awesome tonight. He was not stiff legged. Those who say such have not watched all his fights throughout the years and are ignorant.

    I love VK, but tonight was not his best night. Still, he won and won easily. Just shows how good he really is.

    Agreed on VK is 10x Arreola.

    I thought Arreola actually did as well as he could tonight. If he learns from this, he could improve. I'll give him credit, though I do think a better VK would have taken him out earlier.

    Strongly agreed. His feet seemed slower and much less fluid, and he seemed like he was more bothered at times than I am accustomed to seeing him.

    One has to wonder what Arreola might have been able to do it he actually came in in fighting shape. Could have been more interesting, perhaps.

    Legs looked stiff??????? My god you people crack me up. Vitali's legs looked as flexible as those of a 14 year old virgin ballerina. He was gracefully dancing around the ring staying out of Arreola's distance the entire time.

    Calling this "stiff" just shows the OP doesn't know what he's talking about.

    Please, your nose is so far up the Klitscko's ass you can't see anything. Vitali, to anyone but a Klitschkomaniac looked stiff and old tonight. He threw all arm punches tonight and hugged and mugged in close. He never landed a single hard right hand. He beat an average fighter tonight.

    His legs aren't gone. That's how he fights. He looks awkward as hell, but that's his style. Do we really have to go through this again?

    Arreola would have been TKO'd or knocked out even sooner. Vitali is truly awesome. The bigots will never admit that.

    Vitali won the fight. The bigots should get over it. Who will beat Vitali, nobody, including Vlad.

    The bigots will never say anything good about Vitali, ever.
