    Cooney is a better fight for Wlad, a though fight for him nevertheless.

    Wlad dominance Jab nullifies Holmes jab a bit and the right hand finds a home. Wlad by KO in the 12th

    :good Sounds about right but I would beleive Wlad would knock him out sooner. Wlad would intelligently time a right hand over Holmes' jab. Holmes was always vulnerable to to that punch. Wlad KO 10.

    Holmes UD 12, or TKO 15. Holmes outjabs Wlad. Holmes' guile, grit, and movement
    neutralizes the right hand of Wlad. Holmes prob gets dropped, but we all know how that plays out. See "the monster Squad" when they blow up the wolfman. That pretty much sums up Larry's recuperative abilities. Holmes has the edge in hand speed, foot speed,
    jab, ring iq, chin, heart, attitude, finishing ability. Wlad the edge in size, reach I believe,
    strength, power. Wlad doesn't have the character to gut it out, he never has.
    Oh wait..... Sam Peter.

    Waldimir would win, fairly easily. Vitali, with a better chin than his brother, would beat Holmes even more decisively. Others from Eastern Europe would also. Chauvinism keeps many of us from accepting the fact that today's heavyweights are bigger and better than ever before. If they were Americans we would easily see and admit that. Sad, but true.

    Your out of Ur mind. The Holmes between 77 and 83 beats Klit. 10 outta 10 times. Holmes skill level is way higher than Klit. A lot of people on this forum lately need to seriously watch some film.
