Wlad vs Larry Holmes, who wins?

Holmes. Holmes. Holmes

 

That's what I'm thinkin'. Holmes looks much more fluid and speedy than anybody out there these days. I didn't watch many Holmes fights when I was a kid cause' I didn't appreciate the 'science' part of the 'sweet science' like I later learned to, but looking at that video reminds me how slick Holmes was. He'd box rings around Wlad for 10 rounds or so and then turn up the heat once Vlad tired out. Wlad's only chance would be to grab Larry and lay his heavier body on him for most of the fight (he'd have to have a cooperative ref) so Holmes would be just as tired in the later rounds. Even then Larry probably wins a decision...

 

Watch any heavyweight from the early 90's to see how absolutely awful the heavyweight division is now. These guys are fighting on in a completely different gear.

 

Yeah, Right, Whatever. :yep Are you trying to convince yourself?

 

Wlad isn't 5" taller than Wlad. In w recent pic of them together, they look very similar in height. I don't think there's 2" between them.

Anyway, I'd pick Holmes by stoppage. I think Wlad would be outjabbed and I don't know if he has a Plan-B as everything he does is based around the jab. I think everyones prediction should be the same as who they think has the best jab, as it would decide this fight. If you think that's Holmes, you have to side with him. If you think that's Wlad, you have to aide with him too.

i would say about 3 inches.holmes 6'3,wlad 6'6

 

Man, Holmes would beat the **** outta Wlad.

 

yea like he beat the **** outta norton,williams,spoon

 

Holmes has a bad case a static pant leg.......................

Neither looks like they wear a suit regularly.

 

Larry is 6'3-6'4.

 

The Klitchko size is always tough for the earlier era heavyweights, even if the guy is a great like Larry Holmes. Holmes was much greater than Klitchko, but the size of Vlad could be a problem. But still Vlad's chin could not hold up to Larry's right hands. Vlad's brother Vitali would be a whole different story for Larry. I think Vitali wins. If you make Larry the same size as Vitali than Larry wins, but both guys how they were in height and weight when they were prime and Vitali beats Larry and Vlad losses to Larry.

 

Post is just right.

Name one ATG would have lost the rematch to Michael ****ing Spinks?

That loss will forever taint Holmes' career.

 

:rofl:rofl:rofl 'Ears.

 

I suppose you're going to ignore that the decision in the rematch with Spinks is one of the most disputed decisions in boxing history.
