Vitali vs cro cop

[kickbox]

well an interesting match here i put my money on cro cop by distraction punch and left high kick well guys.......................d..iscuss!!!!!!!!!!!!:b anghead:

I will go with Vitali he has a good guard for High Kicks and his punches are just a devastating as CroCops kicks. But it depends on what kind of fight if it is only MMA CroCop we know nothing about Klitchkos ground game. In Boxing Vitali in Kickboxing either way but I get the Edge to Vitali like I said earlier... I was assuming you meant in a Kickboxing match.

If mirko dont take vitali down, Mirko will get knocked out. Vitali is also a kickboxer. Seeing mirko can take him down, i will still have to go with Mirko from gnp

well Cro cop knows how to use kickboxing well Klitshcko doesnt if you say Vitali can beat cro cop then in that case he can beat all the kickboxers which is dead wrong. its about strategy and klitshcko wasnt noticed highly as the best kickboxer being able to kick and having good hands doesnt grant you a victory. Look at remy decent hands and is good and can block. i see cro cop winning this by strategy kick punch and or punch kick

Go smoke some more crack. Just because i said Vitali could beat Mirko that means i think he could beat every kickboxer. Thats stupid. So according to your logic big nog, fedor, randleman they can all beat every kickboxer. Just lay off the pipe. Vitali hits harder then Mirko. Vitali has good combos, hits hard and is good on his feet. Also had a good kickboxing record. Like i said if mirko does not take this fight to the ground he will lose.

i dont know shit about a lot of boxers, klitchko's included


but all i can say is that a lot of people forget exactly how good Cro Cop was as a kickboxer. dominated JLB, Aerts, Hunt, and Bonjasky, just to name a few.
his style and timing were, and still are, impeccable and technically excellent

Ummm Kickbox. the Klitschos know kickboxing

plus Vitali is 6'7 with an 80' reach, hes only won 1 decision in 35 fights.. every other win was won by knockout, never been knocked out either.. better chin then his brother, Lennox Lewis is the only man with a TKO victory over him and that was by cut

plus he was an amateur and professional kickboxer before he took boxing

i'd say it depends on how he can defend leg kicks, if he does that well he should be able to beat Cro-cop with his fists

People forget, CroCop's Kickboxing record is not one of the best in the world. He has 16 wins and 7 losses. Those are all to very good Kickboxers but Vatali's 35 wins (34 KOs) and 2 loses, one that was very disputed (lenox lewis) and the other because he gassed and quit against Chris Byrd, who I'm sure he could beat in a rematch, are against everyone that was about anything in Boxing. He was just leaps and bounds better than every boxer maybe with the exception of Lewis.

He also won a Silver medal in the world amature Boxing Championships. No small feat to be considered one of the best Boxers in the world Not only that but he was a Professional Kickboxer so he knows all about blocking kicks and knees.

Vitali would beat CroCop. Not only that but he would probably dominate K1 if he chose to. There is no one big enough and skilled enough to beat him.

So you would consider Vitali more then 2nd tier?

I never knew Vitali was a pro kickboxer. Just thought he was a amateur kickboxer. I looked it up and he is very impressive. Vitali probably punches as hard as mirko kicks, and the thing with that is Vitali can throw a 3 4 hit combo when Mirko can only throw one kick at a time. Also Vitali can throw kicks too, which im sure he has good power behind them. Vitali by ko. I think the only way he would lose this fight is if he was taken down, and thats assuming he cant stop it or get back up or defend him self from the ground. But my pick would be Vitali by ko. He is just bigger stronger and very skilled.
