Agreed, even though Wlad's competition has been the best of the Heavyweight Division today, Lewis' division was a tougher overall division and he beat everybody.
Really? Are you sure? :huh I seem to remember Tyson taking awhile to put away guys like Steve Zouski....................and Larry Holmes couldn't even stop Tex Cobb. Imagine if one of the Klitschkos fought Tex Cobb?
even i could have knocked out 80% of his opponents.. only the rest is worthy some serious discussion..
:rofl:rofl:rofl Your champ need help to be respected by ESB.........even with 100% KO he would find a way to be boring. At least we have 10 seconds of pure joy each time Waldo fight and knock a dwarve out.
Wlad's resume is **** theres no two ways about it. Put any of the great heavyweights in this era and they would be dismissing these tomato cans with ease and that includes the Klitschko sisters. When David Haye spanks Wlad these Wlad nut riders will soon change their tune.
Holyfield cleaned out cruiserweight division and became the heavyweight champion before he had 25 fights. He was a sure lock for HOF already at this point. Wlad needed more than 30 fights just to step up his competition from tomato cans to recognizable names. No surprise he has higher KO ratio than Holy, or most other guys you mentioned for that matter.
My opinion is that he's a great athlete blessed with huge size, but sadly he is also a giant *****-hole with a shockingly weak beard. To mention him in the same breath as Dempsey, Lewis, Foreman.....oh dear just **** off!!!!
Tyson was not in his prime for the Douglas fight. When his mentor Cus D'Amato died, he stopped using the bobbing and weaving style and started getting lazy under new trainer Rooney. He also didn't have the same people in his corner and notice in the Douglas fight they were using bags of water instead of ice for the bruising. Even he said he should of retired by 1990. Do your research.
Really, you do? Apparently Haye himself didn't think so or he would've grown a set of balls & fought either Klitschko instead of Valuebum.
I heard Mike lost his lucky rabbit foot 1 week before the Buster Douglas KO loss..................different excuse, same result. :thumbsup
