    You try to act all sensible and balanced, but we know the truth. You're a klittard, and an over-emotional one at that. Remember when you sent me this private message . . .

    This thread is not about Wlad - it's about Vitali, he's a different boxer, though they are related.

    No he wasn't. He was just as average as Adamek. Glass-chinned, too.

    3 very good hw's in one era?

    Riddick Bowe
    Evander Holyfield
    Andrew Golota
    Lennox Lewis
    Mike Tyson
    Frank Bruno
    George Foreman
    Tommy Morrison
    Michael Grant
    Hasim Rahman
    Shannon Briggs
    Ray Mercer

    Pick which 3 you think are very good, my answer would be Lewis, Holyfield, Bowe, Tyson (early) the rest were all very solid contenders. Someone like Adamek is not a very good HW, Arreola is not a very good HW, this is the truth of it, neither are above C level no matter much scrambling and analysing you want to do about who got knocked down by one punch.

    All the men listed were either very dangerous or all accomplished/skilled fighters, the last 3 of which were still viable opponents for the Klitschko brothers when they were in their 40s, so no, todays HW division is nothing like the 90s, there is a definite lack of talent today.

    And none of that has anything to do with why Vitali has such a poor resume

    Ablert Sosonowski
    Manuel Charr
    Kevin Johnson
    Shannon Briggs (40 years old)
    Larry Donald
    Vaughn Bean

    These people are the worst of the worst....I have not mentioned Wlad in this thread, so stop talking about k2, this is about Vitali. Out of the two brothers Wlad has consistently faced the higher-ranked, more qualified opposition. I have no problem with his resume.

    And again - I have no problem with the man, all I ask is that people use common sense & some degree of boxing knowledge when discussing him & the people who he has beaten.

    He was a far better fighter than Adamek, MM was a badass LHW who was bombed out by 2 monsterous punchers in Foreman & Tua.

    Adamek had better feet, was a bit more durable & thats it. Moorer beat much better competition & achieved a lot more than Adamek.

    Anyone without a -ski at the end of their name knows he was far superior

    Seriously, let's stop this BS. Tell me *EXACTLY* what made Moorer better than Adamek?

    Moorer stuggled with bums like Schulz (who was destroyed by a 22 year old Wlad) and Adamek struggled with bums like Arreola who was schooled and punished by a 37 year old Vitali. There is nothing .. absolutely nothing.. that makes Moorer superior to Adamek.

    Whenever Moorer faced top level competition at HW he was put in his place. Just like Adamek. I think the analogy is spot on.

    Vitali would have destroyed Moorer just as one-sidedly as he did with Adamek. Moorer wouldn't have landed a single punch just like Averagemek.

    And on what ****ing level was Michael Moorer then? :lol: David Haye?

    Haye would demolish Moorer it would be painful to watch. Even a fat Povetkin would put a boxing clinic on Moorer and TKO him in the later rounds. Christ this is getting funny. Moorer would be nothing else in today's division but a guy sitting somewhere between Adamek and Povetkin in the rankings, a big step underneath Haye and a couple of lightyears below both brothers.

    :rofl prime Moorer >
























    Version Tua and Wlad fought. Why is it so hard for some of you pinheads to understand? Past his prime Lewis, supermiddleweight Byrd, and always exciting Sanders RIP were fighters of the prior generation to the present one and they beat the Klits and some lost against the Klits. Just shows how much more competitive it used to be. Adamek and Haye my ass they belong in cruiserweight and wouldn't dare go to heavyweight with a prime Holyfield, Bowe, Lewis, Sanders, Tua, Rahman, McCall, Moorer, or Mercer around. AHAHAHAHA!!! Nucca please.

    - Byrd
    - Tua
    - Holyfield in the early '00s
    - Rahman
    - Chagaev
    - Valuev
    - Thompson
    - Haye (instead of ****ing Charr!!!)
    - Ibragimov
    - Brewster
    - Liahkovic
    - Chambers
    - Brock
    - McCline
    - Povetkin


    Each and every name on that list would easily rank among Vitali's top 3 wins (Sanders, Hide, Adamek). It's a bit difficult to lure opponents in the ring when offering slave contracts I suppose. It's easier to accuse them of ducking afterwards though.

    If Vitali had fought and beat half of the names on that list, his resume would've improved 5-fold. The fact that Wlad has a good bunch of them on his resume is entirely irrelevant.

    Povetkin has a much better resume than Vitali. Fact!

    I don't think anyone has ever considered Adamek a true HW let alone a good one. Haye is far more proven.
    But it depends on what Adamek achieves next. I hope he faces Haye at some point, I can see Haye going through him inside 3 rounds easily.

    It seems to me that those that you've mentioned went on to do jack **** in this supposed **** era. Why exactly would they have added to V. Klitschko's legacy again? It's also quite ironic that you've added two Adamek victims there.
