    Good post. Hard to debate against that.

    Wlad would win by TKO


    Schmeling is a cruiserweight.

    Wladimir Klitschko's biggest problem is getting beaten by left hands.. Not rights, which If I am correct is Schmeling's preferred weapon of choice. In addition, the all too obvious height and weight advantage would be enough in and of itself to seal the deal for Klitschko. Schmeling's chin was never the greatest. Wlad has more than enough power to finish off a 190 lb former light heavyweight with a set of whiskers that were average at best. Never mind the outside boxing game and the new paradigm that he stepped into with Manny Steward. The Black Ulan of the Rhine is an outgunned ship in this scenario..

    Firstly Wlad respects Max, so it's unlikely he's going to go full ****** on him, even were that in him anymore (I think the Mormeck fight told us all we need to know there).

    Secondly, Joe Louis can't hurt Wlad? That's the one thing he most certainly can do, small gloves or not.

    Schmeling used his right as his main weapon, but often used the left to go in for the kill.


    He learned to mesmerise people with his right, but while they focused on it he often destroyed them with hooks and uppercuts to the body.

    In short, he was a bit of a puzzle.

    I'm not saying that Louis would drop Wlad with one shot, or hurt him with the first clean punch he lands, or any of that guff, but his speed and crispness alone would give him a good chance to stun the Ukrainian to the point where a barrage of follow-up punches could have him seeing stars. He was just so sharp. That's not something I can say would improve with added muscle mass, unless it's distributed very intelligently, and in small amounts.

    Wlad by KO early. No way does this go the distance unless Wlad carries him.

    By what logic are you saying"a heavier version of Louis MIGHT conceivably
    be able to hurt Wad" etc.? Have you no knowledge of the destructional power that obliterated a Carnera, Abe Simon and Buddy Baer ,though not great fighters were every bit as rugged and strong as Klitschko is ?... Do you think Wlad could take as much punishment as the 45 pound lighter George Chuvalo did ? To say that the greatest combination puncher that ever lived Joe Louis, at his Max Baer best, could not hurt Wlad unless he became "heavier" is ludicrous...Louis when he hurt a man ,would flatten anyone of any size...He was that destructive, EVEN by today's "weight rules the day standards"...

    It's very unfair to call Schmeling Hitler's puppet.
