sad state of boxing

It is an appalling first post. Vitali Klistschko is an exceptional fighter. He doesn't lose rounds and the only way to beat him is to get lucky with an injury or a cut and that is bound to happen with the big men occasionally. Vitali has destroyed pretty much everyone. He was beating byrd decisively at the point of stoppage and was beating Lewis too.

He is a quality fighter and it is easy to criticise and say what he does wrong, but perhaps his flaws are also some of his strengths. It is isn't as easy to fight him as it seems from an armchair. Every opponent finds that out. Haye would get a pound down. Savagely.

I agree with Miles. The reason most experts believe Vitali is one of most difficult to beat fighter ever is simply because he is.

Anyone who thinks Joe luis, Rocky Marciano and Jack Dempsey could have beaten up Vitali and Wlad is a moron imo. Yes their size is a huge asset, but it's size combined with meticulous training, always being in perfect condition, discipline and the mastery of a perfect fighting style to match their physcial attributes.

They would rise to the top in any era. They may not be risk takers, and so prefer to break down their opponents slowly and methodically but they are still exceptionally difficult to beat.

How many fighters have lost less rounds in their entire career than Vitali Klitschko?

He's probably lost less rounds in his career than any other fighter of the last 30 years, maybe ever. If you disagree challenge me on it and name somebody.

Add to that the fact that Vitali has the highest ko rating in the history of the HW division. That should speak volume by itself, you can't be talentless and ko around 97% of your opponents, something must be done correctly in there.

His record is one of the greatest in the history of the sport.

Only 3 people have ever gone the distance with him. Two of those he was over 38 years old.

In his three points wins he won every single round on every single card, aside from one blip where he won on one judges card by 'only 120-109'.

Never knocked down.

His only single legit defeat against Lennox lewis, an unquestionable all time great, and he was winning that fight to the extent that Lewis immediately retired.

If you had a mythical all time tournament with every great heavyweight in it he'd have to be a top 5 pick to win the whole thing, to be honest he'd be my first pick as unlike every other heavyweight nobody has ever beaten him, his only losses coming on a cut, and a shoulder injury in a fight he was dominating.

You have finally lost your ever loving Hobbit mind my friend !!!
