Would The Klitschko Bros,, Have Being Able To Get Any Type of Hold, In The 90 "s Heyday?

They would be right there, but definitely not as dominant as their actual reigns--that being said, the guys from the 1990s would move around to accommodate them as well. Frank Bruno would get smoked bad by either, Herbie Hide wouldn't last many rounds, Oliver McCall, Moorer, I just don't see them beating Klitschkos. Once you get to the cream of the crop it becomes dicier for the brothers. I can see both brothers beating and being beaten by Mercer. Bowe didn't want to fight another big man with skills and power, so I feel like that kind of says that. I think both would have an advantage over Holyfield. I think Vitali vs. Lennox doesn't change that much, but maybe Lennox takes a decision since he was a bit old in 2002. It's interesting for sure. I don't think Tommy Morrison or Ruddock touches either brother, and both get stopped most likely. Lennox vs. Wlad is also interesting as a lot of people here would make it out to be a glass cannon battle, but I think it's a 50/50 fight. They had parallel careers in how they developed as fighters and carried many of the same attributes throughout their evolutions. Any of the washed 80s guys hanging around would be smoked with prejudice.

 

I am sure that they would have got through somewhere, if only based on longevity.

 

Hugely unapologetic Klitschko fan boy so take my opinion for what it’s worth.

But simply put I think it’s impossible that in there primes a heavyweight as big, intelligent, athletic, quick, powerful and determined as Wladimir,
or a heavyweight as big, intelligent, powerful, durable, punishing, stylistically unconventional and determined as Vitali, couldn’t be a champion in some capacity in era in history.

 

You think Foreman would dodge Wlad? I agree he'd go nowhere near Vitali, but if you're Foreman and have seen that glass chin on Wlad, it gets you thinking, no?

 

Wlad would cruise through the decade in a way the Lummox was unable to.

 

The “huggy bear” tactics are exactly why Tyson lost to Evander?

 

If he’s on, I agree. Wlad would’ve swatted Holyfield, Tyson and Bowe. Lennox I’m not sure.
