Vitali's resume may be a little weak but some of his feats are actually amazing

    not because of promoter/doctor/referee, but because of a punch that opened a bad cut. They still gave Vitaly some rounds, as he was doing good against Lewis, but when the momentum of the fight changed in Lewis favour and Vitaly was taking more and more damaging blows, they stopped it to prevent him from serious eye damage. He would´ve been stopped the neyt round anyway imo.

    And as for just 2 weeks preparation, Lewis had the same time.

    That is not an exuse. Both men agreed to take the fight on two weeks notice and had the same amount of official preparation time. However, on this issue, Vitali himself claimed that he'd been preparing for the Lewis fight for a year. You cannot excuse his failure through preparation time.

    Vitali had two weeks notice for that fight. If it weren't for Lewis' promoter, Lewis would have been knocked out.

    Here is the reason that the Eastern European haters hate the Klitschkos so much. It's because they are beating all the haters' heroes up, it's called "Sour Grapes"!!!!!!! Lewis was knocked out cold by Rahman. McCall TKO'd Lewis...............Vitali would have knocked Lewis' out on only two weeks notice. I knew that Vitali would not run out of gas. Fact is that Vitali made Lewis retire..............................for good...............Vitali still can't get Lewis to fight him........................Lewis knows the truth.............I have never seen Vitali run out of gas and I have all his fights on tape. Hell, Mercer beat the Hell out of Lewis, so did Mavrovich, a little guy. Lewis hugged Tua for 12 rounds, etc. Vitali came back after 4 years of retirement and reclaimed his WBC title, Lewis could not do that................Vitali or Vlad will beat up the haters' hero Wilder by knockout, if that fight happens, but Wilder is planning on the title being given to him without his having to fight at all,then he will sit on the title, fighting a rematch with Sconiers, etc., fact is that Ward is not the best fighter on the planet, The Klitschkos are, either one would knock Ward out, or Mayweather. They are the Kings on the Hill, not the midgets....................

    I agree that there is no arguing that Vitali was winning the fight 4-2 on the cards, but he was not clearly winning. The judges at ringside did not agree which rounds he won except for rounds 1, 2 and 4. Rounds 3 and 5 split them with two giving Lewis the 3rd and one giving him the 5th. Round 6 was clearly Lewis's. If Vitali was "clearly winning" he'd have been up 5-1 on the card with the judges unanimous about which rounds he won, that wasn't the case. As it stands, however, Vitali did no better against Lewis than Ray Mercer.

    And HBO did certainly say Lewis was exhausted, but they said it was because of his own bad conditioning and not because Vitali was hurting him or wearing him down.

    You´re absolutely delusional. Vitaly had two weeks notice for the fight, but so had Lewis. Lewis came to the fight in bad shape, whereas Klitschko was in his best. Still he couldn´t beat Lewis. Vitaly was taking more and more huge shots the longer the fight went. That´s a fact.

    And off course the Klitschkos would beat Floyd and Ward. Still both, Floyd and Ward are much more skilled than both Klitschkos. That´s obvious.

    It's not a valid excuse. He had the same amount of official preparation time as Lewis and claimed personally to have been preparing for the fight for a year. You cannot excuse his failure through preparation time.

    Stats are easily manufactured. He is a decent fighter, in a very weak division where his brother is fighting me the more difficult opponents.

    It's almost got to the point where if Wladimir has beaten them there is no need for Vitali to fight them - as if they are one person.

    Vitalis title reign is a joke.

    Lewis had a fight planned, it was canceled so Vitali took that fight on two weeks notice, but Vitali is never out of shape. Lewis was staggered by Vitali, Lewis could not stagger Vitali. Why did Lewis retire rather than fight a rematch? HBO wanted it and Lewis would have made more money than he had within his entire career, but Lewis did not like his badly broken nose, and yes, that had a lot to do with Lewis' bad showing.............Vitali was ready to knock Lewis out and Lewis knows it to this day................Vitali has asked Lewis for a rematch for years now, but Lewis is afraid..................Vitali went on to fight while Lewis' career was ending, and yes, Vitali ended Lewis' career. If Lewis is so superior, the why no rematch? Ask Lewis to fight Vitali right now....................Lewis would get faint and refuse. A fighter does not turn down that kind of money.................but Lewis sure did...........Now, go try to convince Lewis that he can beat Vitali........................

    Vitali is still beating up all your heroes and that's the reason you claim that Vitali can't fight at all, he is the worst fighter living today, but he still beats your heroes, so does Vlad..........Vitali or Vlad will beat up all the champions in any weight division, including Ward and Mayweather. Vitali has fought all over the world, but Ward will not go outside his home turf and will not take a PED test.............Vlad knocked Rahman out, Rahman knocked Lewis out cold, not a TKO, but a KO. McCall stopped Lewis. If Lewis can't be hurt, then how did that happen. Good thing Don King made McCall come out of rehab to fight Lewis in a rematch. McCall just stood there and took Lewis' best punches without moving or even trying to block them.............Did Lewis make a deal with Don King? Talk about Vlad clinching, take a look at some of Lewis' fights.....................by the way, where is Lewis? He still won't fight Vitali and Vitali would take that fight in a minute. He knows he would knock Lewis out.

    Vitali did not have a fight planned, but he jumped at the chance to fight Lewis...........

    When will your heroes beat The Klitschkos? And, if you have so much power in boxing, then you get Lewis into a ring, I guarantee you that Vitali will fight Lewis ASAP...............so get that fight ASAP, it's way over due.............I also guarantee you that Vitali will knock Lewis out cold!!!!!!! So, I expect you to get Lewis into a ring with Vitali, let me know what Lewis says.............If you think that Rahman knocked Lewis out cold, a KO, not at TKO, then wait until you see Vitali knock that coward out................and if Vitali decides not to retire he will knock out your latest boxing hero Wilder. Anyone who thinks that Wilder is the best heavyweight in boxing history is insane..............

    Vitali got dismantled and didn't even come close to staggering a slow shot Lewis.

    He was flailing like a bum and falling all over the ring. He couldn't defend himself to save his life and couln't find the various openings to stop or hurt Lewis. He showed all the skill of a C-level fighter.
    He had a chance to prove himself and couldn't do it.

    Vitali's true level is among C-B level fighters because he just can't hang with the elites.

    Your hero Teddy Atlas said that Kirk Johnson would knock Vitali out with one punch, but Vitali knocked Johnson out in the second round. MSG, NY, USA was sold out during a huge snow storm..............

    Why is Lewis running from Vitali? Explain how Lewis' nose got broken? Did the referee hit Lewis? I guess you will claim that. Vitali took the fight on 2 weeks notice.

    Did you get in touch with Lewis yet?
