In no order... Lewis Usyk Ali Foreman Tyson (between Berbick and Spinks fights) Honorable mentions Even Fields Joe Louis (I am 50-50 on whether he could gain some weight and strengthen punch resistance) Holmes Frazier WladKlit Vitklit Bowe Joshua Fury
Since it's "in their prime" I don't see how you exclude Tyson. He literally was an unstoppable wrecking ball -- built to win, masterfully, by Cus D'Amato -- mowing down all kinds of fighters and styles ... until he hooked up with Don King.
In no order Lewis Ali Holmes George Tyson Probably go with bowe and the klitschko brothers next, then Holyfield Edit forgot Liston, who might make My 5 Fury and usyk aren't a million miles away, but it's a terrible era
Strong list, but I must see something different with usyk I just think the division is full of bums and of course he's a class act, so he shines I would love to see him vs young klitschko brothers or a big daddy bowe or lewis Maybe he would hang? I'm just not sold because he beat a bodybuilder and big fat mess
Wlad klitschko is seriously underrated for losing close fights with Fury and Aj I have zero doubt in my mind wlad from around the Haye fight would definitely beat both and imo comfortably Fury didn't fancy the rematch and Aj went life and death with a man in his 40s
Definitely agree; even a 41 year old Wlad should have beaten Joshua; if he stepped on the gas after knocking him down, rather than believing Joshua was irredeemably gassed and the stoppage would come naturally, he would have knocked Joshua out. I think Fury, due to his longer dimensions and excellent control of distance, would have always been a difficult challenge for Wlad. However a younger, quicker, hungrier Wlad would still be a 60-40 or 70-30 favourite against Fury in my mind.
What is prime Wlad? 2012? No different to the 2015 Wlad Fury fought. A big useless robot. Never beat anyone. Ugly. Bad sportmans. A-side rigged canvas DOSSER. He even gassed in that fight after having thrown 0 punches. Too used to pushing midgets over on his padded canvases.
You're a Fury fan right (to state the obvious). So if Wlad is a big stiff robot who can only beat midgets then Fury's win against Wlad, which is by consensus his best win, can't be worth much in your eyes?
