    The Klitschkos are better in every way [apart from headbutting] than any versiopn of Holyfield.

    Holy's HW reputation is almostly completely based on how well he did in his fights against Bowe, and for Bowe it is exactly the same. It would be equally fair to make the assumption that both fighters were well matched and that neither of them were anything special.

    If you look at their records excluding those fights, and ignore nationalistic bias, I would say the logical conclusion is that they were both at about the same ability level of fighters like Ruiz and Byrd.

    QUICK SUMMARY
    Bowe outclassed by Golota twice then retired to save his rep from further harm [and dodge Lewis]
    Holy lost to Toney, Ruiz, Byrd, and a shed load of other low level fighters

    Holy was 1-2 vs Bowe, who was not even as good as Vitali. And the win over Bowe was very close, and with a 17 minute break, which allowed a sometimes gassed Holyfield to re-fuel his tanks in a stick and move tactical type of fight where he needed stamina! If not for the fan man, this fight could have gone the other way. We will never know.

    On a fair score card, Holy is 0-2 vs Lewis.

    So to close 1-4 vs Bowe and Lewis!!!

    Sounds like the Real Deal had issues with large super heavies. So for "fuk sakes " , just embrace the truth :) Vitali would beat him too.

    Agreed. :deal

    Pre-Manny Steward Wlad busts Holyfield up and stops him.

    All versions of Vitali win by 12 round beating (UD).

    The Klitschkos even cancel out Holyfield's STEROID advantage. :D

    Because you can't handle the truth?

    The only thing Bowe had over Wlad is his infighting ability. Wlad's jab is much better, and more powerful too. His right hand cross & left hook are much bigger than any punch in Bowe's arsenal. Wlad is the smarter fighter too, he'd dictate the distance & pace when Bowe slows down, like he always does. Wlad would knock Bowe down multiple times on his way to a 10th round KO.

    Vitali would outland & embarrass Bowe to a wide decision.

    Holyroid would have trouble landing the head-butt on either of these guys...Although, his upper-butt could be dangerous if it landed...

    I doubt he'd get inside enough to use it.

    I am sick of hearing Haye would beat Ali in his prime.
