    Have won a world title in his first fight as a professional if he decided to turn pro, during his prime years?

    All this faster than light-speed rise to the top in claim of a title talk has got me thinking, who else throughout the history of the Olympics who never turned professional could have won a title in their first bout because of their talent?

    It was the hardest time for him to become a world champ because the Klitschko's and in particular Wladimir was so dominant.

    Teo Stevenson was pretty talented?

    I'd not pick a winner in Wlad vs Cammerelle, 50/50 fight. Vitali's legs went late 00's as well, so he stood a chance in that fight as well.

    He'd have certainly have been a top 5 Heavyweight at least.

    Is Stiverne or Charr champion? Hell yes.... Wouldn't rule him out against Parker or Wilder either. But he definitely beats those two.

    What about AJ? AJ never won that fight, I'm British and say that loud and proud.

    AJ is an elite talent and has had years to acclimate to the pro game, so probably not.

    During his prime years were when prime Wlad was reigning. So nah. Lol He would have gotten shut off in 5-6 rounds.

    But I wish he would have gone pro. Very talented boxer. Would have definitely been a top HW after developing.

    Sultan survived prime Wlad, so did Haye.

    Cammarelle would have been able to do at least better than Iggy, so yeah, in his prime I would give him a decent crack at Wlad.

    I hear ya. But they had acclimated to the pros though. In his FIRST pro fight against prime Wlad... I just don’t see him staying conscious for more than 5-6 rounds.

    What damage would he do in this era? Post-Wlad.

    Would absolutely ****ing school Wilder, barring a lucky hail-Mary right. (but I think Roberto is smart enough to avoid it)

    Parker too.

    Joshua is questionable. Cam had a good chin, not invincible, and Josh has game changing power and his style could see him land a big one on Cam (more plausibly than Wilder with his own style)
