When was the last time a Klit Brother was hurt in a fight?

sanders nearly got vitali out of there. if he hadnt gassed and didnt have a 13 month lay off and come in overweight he could possibly have taken him out....

 

I guess it's hard to tell in the Lennox fight, but he didn't look hurt to me. Agree with the Sanders statement, he looked a bit stunned, but still very clear headed and figure out imediatly that Corrie was faster than him and changed his gameplan. He was never KO from a head kick or hit as a kickboxer, but Pele Reid did get him in the thigh.

 

I think this is one of the things many boxing overlook. Its not only that the K-Bros are wining their fights, they almost never seem to be in trouble. Wlad was shacken by a young agressive Peter, back in 2005, Vitaly by Sanders an even longer time ago. This shows how dominant they are at the moment, and I really wonder, when one of them will be tested again in the future. Vitaly is getting older (not old), so he will get into this situation more sooner than later. For Wlad, there is nobody around the corner to take his belts, especially since he is still growing more confident in his skills.

So for Haye getting them into trouble would be an achievment, since this is something only very few of todays HW are capable of.

 

Sander's was a big, quick, powerful , and confident opponent going into that fight. No fear, just bad intentions looking to take Vitali out. I don't think any of the fighter's Vitali has fought since his comeback have met that criteria. The ones that have tried Arreola and Peter. Are just too short and not fast enough to land anything significant, to cause sufficient damage before Vitali adapts, and counters. I have my doubts with Haye, because i strongly believe the reach is too much to land anything significant. Only the big quick superheavies like Sander's, and Lewis are going to give the Klitschko's problems...

 

I can't think of a fighter with a belt that has lost as few rounds as Vitali. Even if I try and think of a fighter that has only fought bums(which would be the reasoning of many why Vitali hasn't lost a lot of rounds), I just can't think of anyone EVER that has a title and just hardly looses a round.

 

Vitali looked a little rattled at some points vs Areola later in the bout

 

I don't remember anymore...

 

Sanders is also the last guy to go right at Vitali he was not scared at all. All these other guys wait like a sitting duck and get pummeled at least Sanders tried to fight.
