On 9th June 2002, Fong's gym hired a mad scientist to clone
4 little sluggers (V1-V4). Using advanced genetic engineering and DNA samples of some of the legendary sluggers in the world, the cloning worked and V4 became the most successful fighter in our gym. At his peak he was notorious for pushing his limit by challenging for the most difficult fights, often at weightclasses far beyond his own size. His list of opponents reads like who is who in TBG.

won by unanimous decision
Bored by the lack of challengers in welter, the 149lbs V4 went to to challenge the higher rated L-H champ Jackhammer Jones. Despite the odds, V4 dominated the fight and became probably the smallest fighter to wear the L-H belt.
11. David vs Goliath
Cruiserweight title fight on October 24, 2003 vs Great Klitschko (Top Rank)
lost by unanimous decision
The victory at L-H emboldened V4. At 4 foot 10 weighing 150 lbs, he challenged the 6 foot 6 190 lbs cruiser champ Klitschko in what many considered a career suicide. It was suicide all right, V4 couldn't even win a round and was knocked down twice in the final round.

13. The predictable monster

Regan was a monster all right, but he was too predictable for his own good.
14. A fine match
Welterweight title fight on November 19, 2003 vs Koshonne Enosti (Bold Bill)
draw
Enosti was an excellent dancer, raised by Vibo and was managed by Bold Bill. It's been a while since V4 had such a fine challenger in his natural welterweight. Their first bout ended in a draw.
15. No risk no gain
Welterweight title fight on November 26, 2003 vs Koshonne Enosti (Bold Bill)
won by KO in round 1

19. Lucky draw
Middleweight title fight on March 18, 2004 vs Joe Sakic (Bold Bill)

22. A battle of pride
Light-Heavyweight title fight on December 23, 2004 vs Chris Nilan (Petu v.d. Pajm)
won by KO in round 12
Giving up 23lbs in a slugfest vs 12 times Light-Heavyweight champion Chris Nilan was very painful. Going into the final round Nilan was up by 5 points but in much worse shape (having aimed for head while V4 aimed for body). Nilan could have gone 1/1/18 for a guaranteed decision win, but his pride told him to keep slugging, and was KOd by the fresher V4.
23. Another futile attempt
