    :lol:

    It's just too easy.

    You know what I have no real issue with people picking Wlad to beat Rocky, as long as there's a legitimate stylistic reason.

    But those saying Rocky is too small to be a contender today with no other argument other than size have been shown to be a bit hypocritical on this thread.

    Theres not even video footage of Sullivan who was drunk half the time ( so legend holds ) and is a fraction of talent Lewis is ...not even that., You are seriously misguided and posts like this is why ppl would look at you cross eyed.

    Marcinao is to SLOW to compete today at Hw not sure how you don't get that when the man had the shortest reach ever as a HW champion and would lack the ability to make up the distance because of it! :facepalm:

    You're talking about a former top 1 HW of all time.

    Rocky is faster than most in the top ten today.

    I'd be surprised if Tyson didn't stop him. He'd land some thunderous body shots and fight with an aggression and precision Valuev would not have seen. Of course clinching would be Valuev's biggest asset but he'd want to do it extemely effectively. Sure be interesting.

    I'm saying a number of things.

    Rating some h2h and using it as an argument is spurious considering at one time John L was number 1. These rankings change all the time, some rank Joshua as the goat despite only facing 3 men with a ranking.

    Using too big is not a valid argument as this thread shows.

    Rocky only looked slow because he fought LHW sized fighters. If he fought in today's division he'd look like one of the quickest.

    You don't have to achieve an awful lot to be a ranked HW today. Those who think Rocky or Louis wouldn't be top ten ranked don't really deserve to be conversed with.

    I often disagree with Dino. The only think we consistently agree with is the impact clinching has had on the dominance of Wladimir this past decade.

    Lewis would find it hard to do any dark arts on a guy 7 inches taller. Lewis by decision.

    Lewis would be the biggest puncher Sugar Nick ever faced. By far.

    And he would land.

    The only outcome I can see here is Lewis by KO.

    Could be the case. I just think with Valuev's enormous size, durability and hanging on Tyson all night would get tiring for Mike. But yeah I guess anything can happen.

    lighter people are genrally faster due to carrying less weight.

    u appear to be kliturded by a large degree to arrive at the opposite of the truth.
