Vitali Klitschko has NEVER been knocked down or out in his life. Or has he?

Even Vitali Klitschko himself says he was never KO'd before, not even going back to his days of Kickboxing. There was a rumor that Vitali was stopped by Briton Pele Reid in amatuer kick boxing, something Vitali denied saying he was kicked in the leg and had to stop. That was fact, until recently this never seen before footage surfaced.

This is like the discovery of Bigfoot:

(skip to 2:50 if you don't want to watch the whole fight)



From 2005:

When quizzed about it, WBC Heavyweight Champion Klitschko allegedly asked, “Who’s Pele Reid?”, and when he was reminded that Pele was supposed to have KO’d him in a kickboxing match, Klitschko answered, “It was so long ago that I forgot all about him. I lost that fight because of a kick to the thigh, not because of any punch."

I've read a lot of stories about William van Roosmalen (the father of current top kickboxer Robin van Roosmalen) knocking out Vitali in a kickboxing fight in 1995 also. Apparently it was aired on German TV, but I've never seen the footage.

That was actually Wladimir Klitschko, not Vitali.

Here is a dutch thread, with a dutch article, talking about the fight in detail (apparently Wlad broke the guys ribs, knocked him down a couple times, but Roosmalen KO'd him at the end).
