After Undergoing Surgery, Vitali Klitschko Decides To Retire — As late as the 1970’s we were all told there would never again be a white heavyweight champ. This guy and his brother, both PhD’s and musicians, were somewhat special to say the least.
Vitali Klitschko was scheduled to defend his WBC title against Hasim Rahman on Nov. 12 in Las Vegas. Unfortunately, the fight was cancelled because Klitschko suffered a knee injury during a recent sparring session. Because of his injury, Klitschko underwent surgery Tuesday in Southern California.
The operation was done by Dr. Neal Elattrache, Director of the Sports Medicine department at the Kerlan-Jobe Clinic, in Inglewood, Calif. Dr. Elattrache treated a new rupture in the torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and damage to the medial meniscus on Klitschko’s right knee.
You’re right in that they’re both interesting, but neither are great boxers. There’s a void of great boxing talent in the heavyweight division these days.
Vitali and his brother are really just guys with glass jaws and long arms.
BOTH BROTHERS COULD HAVE BEAT THE CRAP OUT OF TYSON AND LEWIS WITH ONE HAND BEHIND THEIR BACK. GLASS JAW IF YOU CAN WITHSTAND THEIR PUNCHES DUHHHHH.
The klitschko brothers have a disadvantage ,& that is they are white Lewis was knocked out twice but nobody said he had a glass jaw ,Vitali gave Lewis all he could handle so what the hell are you all critics looking at ,they all hate that white skin huh
