    It's ESB, that's about as modest of a statement as you'll get :lol:

    Holmes would have won easily, just ask him.:patsch

    Interesting in these fantasy poles that posters picking Wlad give credit to Holmes and say that Wlad would have trouble on his way to possibly winning. While the PC, brainwashed, pseudo historians say with conviction how easily Holmes wins.

    So what?

    Peter sucked. Much like most of WALDO's competition. Who has WALDO ever taken on that had a jab that could counter his own? Pretty much no-one. Lumping Holmes in with the likes of Peter and Iggy is just stupid.

    East Side Boxing forum in the ATG heavyweight jab lists that come up now and then

    It's true. Lots of the posters here seem to exist to have a go at modern fighters

    Ah, East Side Boxing Forum, that well known hiding place of Klit-huggers :patsch

    I don't come on here to have a go at modern fighters but you're only as good as your opposition and WALDO's opposition sucks. He's never faced a decent jabber like Lewis or Holy did, or even Tyson did.

    Holmes would tough it out. His heart, toughness, chin, stamina are all superior intangibles that would allow him to out-hustle Wlad to a decision IMHO.

    I see you point. Holmes can beat Wlad with his cane.

    Can't believe all the comparisons of Holmes being a smaller version of wlad...

    Holmes had a far better chin, infinitely more heart, and infinitely more versatility...Holmes was also accurate and had a great straight right...wlad's problem would be Holmes connecting with that straight right and his lack of versatility, chin (not as bad as advertized though) and heart to deal with it...

    Holmes tries to get away from Wlad Klitschko's powerful jab but never does for 12 rounds, Holmes loses a wide UD.
