Biggest difference is Ali actually beat HOF in their prime. Not that it was Wlad's fault but his opposition was utter dog **** until he finally ran into a Fury and Joshua. If he was younger could these have fights gone differently? Maybe, but he never faced that caliber of opposition in his prime. So it's just as bunch of what if's.
Lol at you saying foreman won some trinkets like he won it from some bum I'm pretty sure he was recognized as champion after he beat Michael Moorer!
any HW champ there has ever been could defend against bums, if they were sanctioned to. but you are right that wlad was well post prime with fury, and partly shot with AJ.
to be fair, we should wait for the outcome of the rematch, it migth be just a blip, but you might be right.
Ruiz Jr is better than Brewster. Kali Meehan did better agaisnt Brewster than Klitschko did. Meehan deserved to win the belt that Brewster snatched away from Wlad in brutal fashion. Ruiz Jr is light years better than Sam Peter who gave Wlad an epic life and death struggle. James Toney pushing 40 and morbidly obese handled Peter easier than Wlad did.
no its more likely they would do what they did last time, tag teaming around dangerous fights. its what they do when they box. When they arent boxing, of course, they can achieve anything you can get yourself to write without cringe kill.
Then he ducked 2 fights in a row and was no longer even top 20 inside 18 months. Hardly real. Just one win and then bust. You know that though don’t you mate.
At the end of the day he's Wladimir Klitschko & you're @HerolGee on BN24 a guy who goes around talking about a boxers family & calling boxers cowards LOL You're pretty insignificant mate As for 'bums'.. No. Byrd, Ibragimov, Haye, Peter, Brock, Chagaev, Pulev, Povetkin, McCline etc were all highly ranked HWs at the time he beat them.. If that weird strange little chap Herol wants to call them bums I don't think he'll lose sleep over it cupcake
Ali was 0-4 against the "modern era" of his day. That's what happens at passing-of-the-torch moments.
I think a peak Vitali could defiantly compete against the current crop, only one I think would have a chance of beating him is Fury. Waldimir is a different story, think Fury and Wilder could beat him but I think a peak Wlad beats Joshua.
