Good post. Wlad s era I just couldn't stomach, the way he fought, the guy s he fought really were some of the worse I'd seen.
Oh okay, I'm still saying wlad fought in a crap era
Holyfield had more than just a solid Chin too. That's why he beat some of the best names in his era,a lot tougher era than wlad fought in.
You mentioned wlad power, what I'm saying is you needed more than that to beat Holyfield. Wlad wouldn't have beaten the Tyson that Holyfield...
And look at the shots Holyfield could take.
His willingness to take a shot and take two and his relentless body attack would wear wlad down and gets him a decision or a late ko.
When Holyfield was bad he was bad but when he was good he was bloody good. His pressure, incredible chin and inside fighting are what wins it for...
Maybe I'm biased cos 1990 s were my era, but I'm not seeing Wlad beat and of those names. Especially Bowe and Holyfield at their best.
Not sure how well they fare against the best of the 90 s tbh. The big guns like Bowe, Lewis, Holyfield.
Floyd beats Tillis every day of the week.
Or did they just make the division look weak? A little like the Louis era??
Or did they just come along at just the right time in history, when the division was at a low?
Ali by decision.
I think anything could happen to be honest. Baer could hit like hell, solid Chin where's Lyle was tighter on defence,at least more than Max. I'm...
No, both Sonny and George would Hurt him badly. You needed a decent chin against those two and I'm not sure wlad s is up for it.
