Nodody on this board thinks lower than the Heavyweights today (well maybe the Pres). but I think they are in the top 100 . . .lol. I think they both are top 25 maybe top 20. Anyone who has them much lower are just haters anyone much higher (top 10) just doesn't know much about boxing.
Top 20 for me, and damn it as much as i love the classic section, i seriously think there is a good chance they would have beat and been just to big and strong for many guys in there that are loved, guys like dempsey, louis, marciano etc
Id seriously like someone to post say40-50 HW's in history who were better, and who could have coped with there sheer size and power. I know they lost to a few crap fighters, but over all any other time they would have been a horrific problem for any other HW in history. For me you cant post that many and say they were better, it just cant be done as much as the haters wish it could, the fitness, size, power and plain amazing athleticism of them is just to good
The truth, none of these none talented, non-boxing SPECTATORS/Wannebe internet commentators of the site, who refuse to see true reality, that is; The Klit sisters are just plain lucky. They live in a mediocre time when steroids are almost legal in Russia, and illegal in countries like the USA. The only ATG either has ever faced whipped their ass, so the one chance either had of defeating an ATG, THEY FAILED! There really is no need to compare them to the real ATGs of the past (of which neither had a chance in hell of defeating) when you can simply compare them to the CONTENDERS of the past who would have whipped their asses even before they would have made it to fight an ATG like Ali, Holmes, or Foreman. With their stiff robotic Jab-Jab-Hold styles, I seriously doubt if they would have made it past PRIME contenders such as Norton, Bonecrusher Smith, Ellis, Shavers, Mercer, Reddock, Chuvalo, Cooney, Terrell, or a whole host of others. Fuk!! I seriously doubt if either of them would have even been able to beat Marvis Frazier, prime Bruno or Witherspoon. You cats need to go take another one of them Anti-depressant pills.
They are both top 20, Wlad top 15. But the division IS overly weak. The two top contenders over the last year have been Haye and Adamek. Both cruisers who have moved up, one a former LHW who got schooled by Chad Dawson. Guys like Chagaev, Povetkin, Ibragimov make up the numbers, all lack speed, size and power. None have any dangerous intangibles.... You are talking **** my friend.
I guess, following your logic, that the 90s was the weakest HW division ever, since, you know, a CW and a LHW actually won the linear championship :yep
