Vitali has a more impressive performance against an ATG at a similar stage of his career. But there is no comparison between the careers of...
Ditto Povetkin after Chambers. Witherspoon didn't get a shot bc he lost to Mercer and Donald. No proof that Witherspoon was better than Sanders...
Witherspoon in the late 2000s would've beaten a couple of guys like Dimitrenko or Joe Hanks and then gotten a title shot against VItali or Wlad...
Revisionism 101.
Peter 1 wasn't during his reign, chief. Takam got brutally knocked out while down on the cards. Your feelings.
Dominance counts because I said so. Wlad beat everyone fairly easily until he lost to Fury (a h2h beast) while almost 40.
He also got tko’d in 1 by Smith and lost to Thomas plus had a bunch of close fights. I can’t remember Haye, Povetkin, Pulev, Ibragimov, Thompson,...
Maybe he just wasn’t that special if his best win heading into the Holmes fight was an MD over Snipes. Williams also cut it close against Holmes...
Ibragimov was better and wasn't a past prime, last minute replacement.
His wins against Virchis and Ruiz were better than Skelton. PFP Usyk is obviously ahead of him and Haye should be too. He had a short peak that...
Disagree. Witherspoon is given mythical "peak" status for the Holmes fight, but he was sort of an inexperienced unknown whose best wins came...
Sam Peter would have a better chance than Sam Langford. People picking Byrd are the most bitter people on the face the planet. Ali for weight...
Gomez basically sat out in 2006 after the cocaine scandal, and then went the WBC route with McCall (interim WBC title), and Vryches (WBC...
Not nearly enough defense for Povetkin. He'd destroy Byrd though.
None of the guys who Larry beat had that kind of consistency. Povetkin was more consistent than all of them.
