    Yes. And look where they debuted...

    Lewis was on the undercard of Gary Jacobs ffs.

    Harrison was headlining a debut, it looked like a damn title fight.

    you also have to factor in Wlad was 19 when he lost that fight. Audley was 29 when he fought him at the olympics

    I think he was out of the top 15 in the WBA and WBO, while ranked 10th WBC and 5th IBF for some reason. I don't think the whole division was depending on Solis to represent, still should have beat Thompson. :patsch

    Vladimir Klitschko is, by far, the best heavyweight in the world today...............Vlad won the gold medal back in 1996, Atlanta, GA and looked good in doing so. Vlad would easily knock Wilder out, no contest..........Vlad knocked Thompson out two times, Wilder refused to fight Thompson..................
