    No doubt. They even would've been champs. Without Ali or Foreman they would be just as dominate as today.

    Yeah of course, eventhough its a bad era for heavyweight boxing, we shouldnt neglect on the fact that K2 are great boxers

    Top ten isn't even a question. They would be in the mix with the greats, win some, lose some but clearly dominate the contenders of the 70's.

    Of course I mean I think they could beat other guys who were top 10 like Bobick or Young or Shavers or Lyle

    I guess they could have cracked at the 10 spot, maybe the 9th. They might made a niche as gatekeepers for a while. But no way would they even sniff championship gold during that time.

    This is why I hate polls especially when it involves the Klitchkos, because their nutthugging fans ruin all possibility of any validity.

    Vitali Klitschko with his Height, Iron Chin, Stamina, and Awkward Lean Back Style would be a tough out for any Heavyweight in History. I am not saying he would beat anyone but he would not get blown out by anyone. The guy can fight.
