He postponed the fight several times and eventually retired. Did Vitaly chicken out?:dunno: Or was he really having injuries? Perhaps there is a psychological factor because Rahman beat Lewis and Lewis gave Vitaly a very hard fight. If Vitaly had faced Rahman he would have turned him into a bloody pulp.

He was afraid of going to jail for manslaughter...

:lol::lol:I agree. Rahman sucks. Even though the evidence is overwhelming that vk ducked him.

I still think Vitaly had a scare in sparring a week before the fight. That's what the rumor was around Vegas, that he had been KO'd in sparring. He was slated to make 9 million for that fight. That's a lot of cash.

He was hurt.

No way is anyone gonna make me, you or any unbiased and knowledgable boxing fan think that Vitaly retired because he's afraid of fucking Hassim Rahman.:atu:

No, but it seems like a logical excuse for you since they would remind you of your mother.

And if he would/does...is that a fight YOU would want to see??

And, would you think,...based on boths most recent performances, that Rahman could do anything to beat Vitaly?

My answer to both questions is no.

Yes, but only to see Rahman wear the Don King mat crown again.

Enzo Calzaghe told The Ring: "Anyone can be successful at heavyweight right now. I could fatten up Joe to 17 and a half stone and he would win the title."

Amazing how many midgets or trainers of midgets throw stones at heavyweights from afar,.. but not alot ever deliver on actually getting in the ring with them. Brave stuff,... keep hiding behind those 'p4p lists'.

Enzo has been on record with some of the dumbest shit anyone in boxing has ever said though:laughing:

somebody explain to me how Vitali faced Lewis, ate every hard punch Lewis threw at him. Even back to back clean uppercuts. Yet somehow he was afraid of Rahman? :dunno:

I can understand if Vitali refused to fight Rahman and continued to face others but he didn't. He ended up hanging up the gloves.

at this stage it's silly not to believe Vitali's injuries. They were legit and have been publicly documented.

People need to stop and think for a second what each fighter represents and there is nothing Rahman brings to the table that Vitali couldn't deal with.

Rahman lost to Ruiz for god's sake. I don't like Vitali much but this is fucking stupid.

It only took Calzaghe 15 years to fight outside of 168, so maybe in 2050, he will go for the cruiserweight title.

Enzo is at his best when he is cursing and yelling incohernet shit at Joe... spitting at the mouth like a rabid monkey and shaking his head like Mike Ditka after a bad call. When he does this all one can hear are a steady stream of expleratives that would make most hardened New Yorkers cry and go to their mamas titty with big brown eyes.....

I would take Enzo on in smack talk up until the point where he got mad and started to talk ferocously with his Welsh accent... then I would run and tell Caligula that he could be quite enlivened if he wanted to talk some smack to the Enzo man...

I think it is clear that Vitalie was/is a chicken

he was chicken of Rahman..

look.. I dont wanna bring race into it but lets be honest

Vitalie is a big white german robot.. and even if you dont think he is gay you have to at least recognize that him and his bother are "strange" with the naked poses and all. .

Rahman is a legit strong man and bad ass dude.. he was a collector for loan sharks and on top of that.. he STRETCHED Lemmon

Vitali hit lemmon and Lemmon ened up stopping him..
Rhaman STRETCHED Lemmon!! out cold!! on his back!!!

yeah yeah.. Lemmon came back and Ko'd Rahman but when they both were prepared Rahman knocked Lemmon the f out

that put fear into the german (gay?) robot..

No fucking way in hell would Vitali be afraid of Rahman. He was injured, it's that simple.

The guy fights Lewis gets his eye nearly knocked out of his head and wants a rematch. He retires for 4 years and comes back to fight Samuel Peter, a guy much better than Rahman. If Rahman was holding the title instead of Peter it would have been Rahman getting his ass beat Saturday. Vitali would murder Hasim, no doubt.

I just think there's nothing worse than ankle-biting little chihuaha sized dogs, talking shit about heavyweights while hiding behind 'p4p' lists and recieving all these compliments from mainstream fans about them being 'real fighters' despite the fact that they have no gravity to contend with, nor do they get slugged in the skull by men with tree-trunk arms and legs :crafty:.

Aren't you white and also of german ancestry, LOK? I'm sure you once said you had german blood in you.

Interestingly, Rahman has a reach advantage over Vitali. 80" to 82". He did get Lewis with the jab quite a few times. Today though, Rahman is washed up.

Obviously LOK said that he had a little German in him. Most probably a Billy Barty lookalike.

Yeah, perhaps that second knockout loss to the Big O was enough to get Vitali's courage up.
