    Exactly. I could just as easily asset the opposite, and back it up by bombast.

    I've noticed none of the Klit fanboys @Toney F*** U and @BCS8 even addressed this. Absolute cowards.

    You've shown you are not even-handed when it comes to the Klitschkos and cannot assess things fairly so your opinion means nothing.

    Vitali would **** Bugner up something horrible and then everybody would call Bugner 'yet another bum on Vitali's resume'.

    Addressed.

    How many fighters do you think Vitali couldn't beat though ?

    Few. And Bugner isn't one of them. He's made a career of failing most times he stepped up in class.

    I'm actually going to have to disagree here, Unforgiven. I think this is to far. On one end of the spectrum you have people like Toney, Magoo, and BCS8 using fights that Frazier was slightly troubled in pre-prime, bringing up the Foreman fights even though they weren't remotely similar fighters, and even (bizarrely) using fights Frazier not only won but dominated against him, while ignoring any valid criticisms of Vitali which clearly show they're not even handed. This is on the other end of the spectrum. Bugner was NOT a better boxer than Vitali (let alone clearly) and would have little chance against Vitali. Though I do think Bugner is among those who had the most unrealized potential in HW history.

    Just had to say something because I noticed this was unaddressed by Toney nor BCS8 (who only made a simple response when I called him on his behavior) which I found rather cowardly and laughable.

    Burner would get stopped by Vitali. Also I don’t even like him that much

    You've been dickriding him this entire thread :lol: Man up and have some dignity. At least BCS8 will man up to being a fanboy.

    Lewis, Holmes, Wlad are the most likely candidates to beat him. Possibly Ali as well.

    Ya think Floyd Cummings could beat Frazier? You know, the famous pugilist? ;)

    I think Vitali was better overall than Bugner, mainly because he was even bigger and was a bit more determined usually.
    When I say Bugner was a better boxer, I mean he was technically a better boxer.
    You won't see Bugner stumbling around, feet splayed apart, hands by his sides, face sticking forward.

    I'd favour Vitali to beat Bugner but I'd give Bugner more than "little chance".

    Half of the guys Vitali was fighting in "world title" fights were the same level fighters as Bugner was beating in non-title, British title or European title fights.
    It sounds ridiculous but it is actually true.

    Floyd Cummings couldn't beat an aging 37 year old arthritic, legally blind, Frazier who hadn't fought in 5 years. You know who beat a peak Vitali? A blown up middleweight feather fist ;)

    You know what Vitali did when he came back at an advanced age after not having fought for 4 years? That's right, whitewashed the WBC champion and mugged his belt off of him.
