    It totally contradicts your opinion doesn't it. Vitali scored a shut out over a 30 years old Johnson.
    NB I typed it out because I happen to agree with it!
    The 30-year-old Johnson survived 12 rounds against the hard-punching Ukrainian champion, but he couldn't earn enough points from the judges. Fabian Guggenheim and Omar Mintum scored it 120-108, while Guido Cavalleri had it 119-109.

    "I would have preferred a knockout but I'm happy because I won all 12 rounds," Klitschko told 17,000 fans at PostFinance Arena. "He's not easy to hit."

    Johnson proved a durable opponent and did his best work with counterattacking straight left jabs, though he never managed to damage a fighter who has never taken a standing count.

    Ill ask you again , did Johnson move his legs against Vitali.. When you answer we can then look at the footage and decide in which fight he moved more

    Your argument is that there was little to choose between the JohnsonVitali beat and the one AJ beat correct? Johnson was unbeaten when he faced Vital between then and the AJ fight 5 years later he had a further 12 fights and lost 5 of them,You have no case!

    Are you some sort of forum coward? You presented me with an article that states Johnson had no legs against Joshua.. That is categorically false.
    For the few rounds that was in ti , Johnson moved on his feet the same , if not more than he did against Vitali. I will now post footage

    Btw , Chisora is as good now at 36 as he was at 30.. Johnson was not the same Johnson but he wasn't a vastly different Johnson either

    You probably won't watch it Here's the Johnson vs Vitali fight.. Johnson stood in front of Vitali for all 12 rounds. This Johnson would suffer the exact same fate against AJ

    Difference being he was 5 years older now with 6 defeats on his record,and your trying to claim he was the same man!
    Ludicrous!

    Listen dopey , i never once said he was the same man.. I merely proved how he remained a hard man to get rid of in many fights he had after the AJ loss. . Its also a fact he had no legs against Vitali. Know wtf you are talking about before quoting somebody.

    Btw aren't you McVey , the #1 Marciano hater on the forum.

    In his prime he lost every round to Vitali and calling me names won't change that .Go bore someone else.

    You're the same Dino Velvet ,day after day, week after week, ad nauseum . A damaged CD stuck on the same track.
    For the record if I had to pick I'd go with Fury by dec.

    If that upsets you , you need to get out more. Worrying that much about a poster online isn't healthy.

    Vitali was a very busy fighter 60+ punches a round.

    Fury does not throw as many - about 35 a round.

    Fury loses a decision or gets KOed. He does not have the power or the output, and when he lands he wont crack Vitali's chin. As a final call on my H2H list, (Thanks to all the feedback) VK is still top dog.

    Kicks are a lot harder than punches.
