Would would have given Vitali a loss

I'm sorry but this statement is as stupid as saying that a fighter was ahead on the cards just before he hit the canvas and got KTFO at the end of the day it is a meaningless statement. The cuts on his face didn't just appear, face it, Vitali lost TKO6.

 

Apart from Lewis, obviously.:yep

Hell, he didn't even KO Byrd or Peter

 

Some might have a chance, but I think Vitlai would vs any fighter besides Lewis from 1998-2008.

 

Funny, I remember Him saying how out of shape lewis was and how if Vitali pulled an upset he would come out of retirement. This after saying in the 90s he would never get in the ring with Tyson or Lewis, But at age 53 he was gonna take on Vitaly, goes to show how much Foreman thought of Vitali.

 

I think he beats that great fighter you have in your avatar.
Don't dismiss him.:bart

 

Ike was on steroids.

 

So was Vitali he even admitted it, roided up n ****, tarnished for life as a dirty doper.

 

I agree with the others who mentioned Ike Ibeabuchi. Too bad he had to become Ike "Ibeatahoochie".

 

Ithink he was even kicked off of the Ukranian amateur team for it.

 

Maybe, but I don't think he had them in the last 10 years. Unlike Ike.

 

:-( It would be like Carnera all over again, Vitali has done NOTHING great in his career to even have his name mentioned in the same breath as Joe Louis, hell Byrd and Ruiz have better resumes......:rofl :rofl :rofl

 

I think Vitali stands along side Lewis as for best of the last decade plus.

 

Thats ok then :-(

 

If Max Schmeling could knock Joe's lights out with a right hand, so could Vitali. If 186 lb. Marciano KO's an old Louis, then Vitali would demolish him.
These are great boxers who deserve alot of respect, but Joe would succumb to Vitali.
Wlad takes Joe out faster.
Forget the Carnera comparison. Primo was very sloooooow.
These brothers aren't.

 

No Lewis is in a class by himself, no one else comes close.
