Wow you deduced all that. Wrong again Dukie.
"Whatever" (c)
Dukie my boy. I thought you said that using that term indicated a person lost an argument. :yay:
Just joking around. Anyway, I've clearly pointed out my idea about Adamek. I have nothing to add to it indeed. But should I? Because there were no counter-arguments to it, except some emotions.

And why not? At his best he was a technically solid boxer with decent skillset.
:o
You act like you've only seen Adamek's fights against Molina and Miller.
You act like we're talking g about Otto McCall.

Oliver didn't have those skills.
He'd be the best vitali ever beat.
Depends at what time, Oliver McCall was a different personality altogether and partly earned his reputation as Mike Tyson's chief sparring partner when Tyson was hot, that takes some doing even in the gym.
Vitali was a very good fighter and fought a decent group of boxers and beat most of them easily.
Even though Vitali lost to Lennox it was one of those losses that carried weight, Lewis never fought again after that.

Lewis was three months short of his 38th birthday when he beat Vit. Don't make it sound like that fight brought on Lennox's retirement. McCall made his rep by being impossible to stop/knockdown and KO'ing Lennox. Not sure how many folks realized he was Mike's main sparring partner at the time. I'm strained to find a better win for Vit than McCall would've been.

Lol, McCall is arguably more accomplished than vitali, much less any of his victims.
