    That could be, but if Lewis were still here, and vitali at a bit younger as well, I think he'd be #4,...He was at one time # 3

    Quarry usually feasted on big, lumbering heavyweights, and thats what Sam Peter is. Only the Klitschkos would be able to beat Jerry.

    :lol:
    :lol: SANDERS is far from mediocur ! the PURITY fight was against a sick and very young VLAD and the BREWSTER fight stank ! but this has already been discussed and you are simply using it to boost a losing argument ! And for the record HOLY isnt as durable as PURITY and VLAD we are talking about is the prime version no ? HOLY also doesnt have the power of BREW or the size or stance or power of SANDERS ! HOLY doesnt match up well here and his own history backs that statement up ! no matter how you spin it ! :deal :hi:

    My bad.
    I think Wlad would bust him up from the outside while using a lot of movement, throwing a left hook on the inside then hold and go back to the outside to neutralise Quarry's game.





    Am i do only one who imagine's 2smart4u's desktop to have a post-it hanging on his monitor that says "Bigger. Stronger. Hits harder" as well as an extra keyboard of which every key is a shortcut to either :yep, :lol: , :deal, :patsch and :hi:?

    Wlad doesn't have Ali's mobility, however. Interestingly, he hasn't faced many extremely mobile fighters recently--his successes have been primarily against stationary targets.

    :lol:

    Certainly not a fighter like Ali or Young. After Wlad, his best win is against Michael Sprott.

    That's mediocre however you spin it. Lower top 10 quality or fringe contender.

    Losing argument? Have you even read the thread?


    Unbelievable statement. I really don't know what to say here. You believe that Purritty is in any way comparable to Holyfield? :rofl

    :huh VLADS size strenth and punching power are his main advantages so why in hell wouldnt they be mentioned alot when comparing him to a SMALLER WEAKER PUNCHER ! Espesily when they are either ignored or there signifacance not understood !:patsch

    Do you believe Sanders would beat Holyfield, yes or no? Do you believe he was a better fighter than Holyfield, yes or no?

    You clearly implied that Purritty was a tougher opponent than Holyfield would have been because of his chin. Comparing two fighters on such a different level is beyond stupid.


    Yeah, I wouldn't expect you to know about Louis's water weight cutting. That requires knowledge of the era and doesn't involve size or power.

    Now I expect you to deny reality and insist that Louis didn't cut weight. Please do so, because I find it rather amusing.

    If you believe you're winning this argument, you do not have a clue what's going on.


    Nobody said size was irrelevant. It's only when people who don't understand the finer points of boxing use it as a crutch ("He's bigger, so he wins") that it becomes a problem.

    You're one of the most passive-aggressive posters I've ever seen. Posting :patsch smilies one minute and being cheerful the next. :think

    Because they're the only ones you're capable of looking at. You ignore all of Jerry's advantages because you don't understand analyzing fighters' styles. You just look for the bigger, harder-punching guy and predict he'll win. :good

    CT, seriously, I'm sure you've seen thouands of fights over the years. Don't you agree that Wlad-Brew I was one weird fight? :think
    It's top 1% in the bizarre outcome category.

    And vs Ross, Wlad was being over worked. He was dehydrated and (obviously) faded in the late rounds. Wlad literally left it in the gym that nite. Yeah, Sanders clocked him. If Wlad took CS lightly, it's team Wlad's fault... just like LL in his first fight with Rahman.

    :lol: So claiming a fighter has a beter chin then another fighter is stupid dispite it beingb true ? So you think Ll had a better chin then CHUVALO and its stupid to claim GEORGE is more durable ! So you really beleive JOE dehydrated thus weakening himself before a fight ?:patsch And i wouldnt waste my time reading an article that would claim this foolishness ! And trust me I understand the finer points of boxing just fine but when a comparison simply doent warrent going that in depth I dont bother ! JOE lost to GEORGE fore a simple reason of being overpowerd and only a ****** needs this to be explained any furthor ! And for the record since Im on a message board I find it ammusing always and get a kick on how irritating those little faces apparently are ! Cheers ! :yep
