Vitali's Mandatory Stiverne Beats Journeyman By Narrow Margin

Right before the fight with Helenius, but yes :deal

A guy who had only been stopped once in 43 defeats (Currently 49 defeats) too :shock:

 

....after breaking 2 of his ribs

This wasnt a fight involving K2 so you cant expect the fangirls to have watched it

 

Agreed. Guys like Ziausys are very important to the sport :deal

And yes, it dont seem good on paper for Stiverne.

 

atsch No he wasnt ****** .

 

Stiverne is clueless once he figures out that he can't hurt a guy.

All he is is POWERFUL, but if a fighter survives his onslaughts he can't break them down.

Saying that if he fought Vitali the fight would be very interesting in the first 4 rounds, but I'd favour VK to take him into deep waters down the stretch and TKO him late or win a reasonable points decision.

 

whatever dude, i was talking about Mercer and no one else....slice that crap up however you want and pick out the one good thing about it, the name MERCER. It was a good name/scalp, a good stay busy fight thats it. 41? 42,43 all i remember was he was an old, balding, fat guy that looked like mercer that night.

when this fight is in 2002 and Mercers best wins were in

so how you can look at all that and think think it was a anything other than a good heavyweight win. thats why the WBO was even held to zero credit even in 2002... Mercer getting a shot? come on man...

 

sorry he was 41 bald, fat, and not a factor and not 43 bald, fat, not a factor.

thats like you your girlfriend weighing 214 pounds or 198 pounds....either way she is still fat...so go **** yourself dummy

 

I'd rather Stiverne fight Wladimir. or even better, another contender because who really wants to see wladimir 1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-2 his ass and clinch him to death.

 

thats the prob today....its just acceptable do do the minimum ...Stiverne is obviously a decent heavyweight..but show that last fight to a room full of sports reporters and say "he is the number 1 heavyweight contender" according to the WBC and they will dig up their boxing jokes again and say thats why they dont even cover the sport.

 

Using a win over Ray Austin to validate Stiverne is silly.

Ray Austin only challenged for world title once, not twice....was annihilated in 2 rounds with only the left hand of Wladimir Klitschko (maybe the worst mandatory challenger in recent HW times), Golota was injured, Williamson is crap (he was coming off a brutal KTFO against Kali Meehan), he DREW with Donald and Whitaker, not wins, only managed a draw against Zuri Lawrence, and before the Stiverne fight he stunk up the joint against a lazy ass Solis.

Austin was outboxing him most of the fight. So there goes your solid defense claim. He's a plodder with a big right hand, that's it.

 

Vitali would easily knock Stiverne out!!!!!!!

 

It's the story of Vitali's career. Just try writing his five best wins, and then sit back and have a laugh.

 

Sanders
Adamek
Juan Carlos Gomez
Peter
Solis/Hide

Probably something like that. Doesn't look to shabby at all.

 

Trying to pump up Ray Austin.. Pathetic
