The answer is yes when talking about both in todays opposition.
The answer is no when talking about Wlad with some the legends from yesterday.
The answer is yes when talking about vitali with yesterday and todays fighters.
As someone said before standing toe to toe and beating each others brains out is not a smart/long term positive in boxing.
Floyd adopts the safety first style more than anyone else but comparing him to Wlad is like chalk and cheese.
Lennox and Vitali has a great fight in the ring and lennox won.
Lennox didnt give vitali a rematch just like calzaghe didnt give an old hopkins (who some say beat joey c).
Does that make either have there win removed from the history books..no it doesnt.
No one knows what could have happened in either rematch but what was evident in the vitali/lewis was that lewis stopped vitali.
Lewis stopped vitali.
Lets just respect the facts.
Promoters, trainers and fighters say lots of things but vitali could not continue.
