Larry Holmes vs. Wladimir Klitschko.

[VG_Addict]

12 rounds. Who wins?

[lufcrazy]

Larry wins a late stoppage.

He is one of the only men who can outjab wlad but he could also brawl on the inside.

the fight will be competitive all the way through but I think Larry wears him down and stops him ultimately.

They all had hard nights with inferior opponents. Thinking they'd have it easy with wlad is ludicrous.

Larry Holmes has the better jab and footwork.

Sorry to double post.

So did Wlad. What's your point?

That about sums it up.

What can I say? Holmes was troubled by good heavyweights, better HW's than the ones Wladimir got smoked by.
It's no use bringing those performances up because Wladimir is not Witherspoon and Holmes is not Sanders.

In other words, referring to Larry's tough nights (fights he won) to say Wlad would win is silly. It holds no water. There are so many variables and dimensions to consider.

And yes, clear. 8-4, 7-5, etc. Close but clear.

I could be wrong though.

Take Norton, for example. Would Wladimir present the same stylistic similarities that Ken did to Holmes? Would Wladimir use the same kind of defense, or offense? No, he would not. This is primarily why saying "lolol holmes lost rds to ken norton how wud he clearly ud wlad?? lolol" means fuck all.
