Vitali klitchsko is still the emeritus champion, could he come back and defeat fury to not only avenge wlad's loss but also break foreman's record of becoming oldest heavyweight champion?
Not anymore. He's too old now nearing 50. Foreman had the fortune to fight a champion that came up from 175 and had a suspect chin, while he still had that insane power. Vitali at this age might have had a shot at beating Wilder, but he will get easily outpointed by Fury.
ACtually Fury in his 2nd fight against Deontay kind of reminded me of Vitali ... very aggressive coming forward, with clobbering volume punching and never backing down...
Not now, he's too old and been inactive for too long. Prime for prime it would of been a good fight. Fury maybe one of the few who could out box Vitali due to his size and movement, remember Vitali out boxed Lewis so from the outside he was damn effective, so me saying that is some compliment. But could Fury handle Vitali's work rate, Vitali threw and awful lot of punches and Fury in contrast doesn't. Even the more aggressive Fury in the Wilder rematch threw just over half what Vitali threw per round.
Dunno who'd take it based on Fury's last showing, but Fury Wilder II does prove what can happen in a rematch after a close or controversial first fight. I will always believe Vitali would have done the same to Lewis in a rematch if injury free.
Vitali threw alot of energy saving arm punches. Fury from Saturday put his whole body even behind the jabs.
These are my two favourite boxers. Vitali Klitschko is somebody who I think matches up well against almost anybody. He was cavalier in his attitude and was always up for a real scrap. What a fight that would be.
No chance at all. Fury will beat him and stop him. Prime Vitali is other story. It will be other story against the other Klitschko as well.
No, no way. Fury would stop him imo. To old now to come back and too long out. And Furys an hard fight for anyone in prime or active now.
Wladimir is the one that I have heard mention breaking Foreman’s record a couple of times. I think we might see Wladimir back in the future, I think Vitali has moved on in his life to other things.
