    Thoughts?

    We know Vitali lost to the best two fighters he ever fought (Byrd & Lewis).

    Would a win over Haye be their best win?

    As it stands no. IMHO Haye would have to lose and then go on to achieve more the HW division for him to be either Klits best win.

    Byrd in 2000 is better for Wlad IMO

    Johnson or Peter?:think
     
  6. hmm..how big was the Sanders win at the time? That's the only notable win he's got as far as I'm aware.

    It probably is Peter. If you mean Kirk Johnson, I can't see it. Certainly not for Kevin!

    Peter beat the former champ, Maskaev (?) to take the title. He's got better wins, actually. McCline, Toney and Maskaev being better than anyone on Vitali's resume.

    Puts Vitali's "excellence" in perspective somewhat, doesn't it?

    Yes, especially Vitali. He's never fought anybody decent in his whole life. Well, maybe Byrd but he quit.

    I think it depends on the how the fight goes.

    If Haye were to beat one of the brothers first, and they were then able to avenge the loss it certainly would be.

    Didn't he fight that Jamacian bloke from Canada. I seem to remember he was quite good.

    Okay, he's never beaten anybody good in his whole life is what I meant to say.

    Peter is absolute shite, to say he's better than Haye is ridiculous.

    It helps others understand if you type what you mean to say.

    Peters shite but I don't think Haye has done enough at heavyweight yet to be a better win.
     
  14. They were not hyped as ****. Sanders had smashed Waldo that is all.

    Anyway, Lennox TKO6 :hey

    Keeping that in mind, and that Haye would beat anyone Vitali's beaten, doesn't it make you think Haye could easily do a number on him?


    There’s a smokescreen around Vitali because of the Lewis fight. Because Lewis was so out of shape (undeniable, despite the Klit-ites bizarre insistence otherwise), it gave Vitali more options. And he still couldn’t put him away like Rahman or McCall did. He wasn’t even as dominant as Bruno was in his losing effort.

    Just thinking about Vitali’s level of opposition has changed my mind on this all. I could see Haye really winning in style against him.

    Wlad, less so.
