    Wladimir Klitschko faces a heavyweight division where every single fighter is Brian London at some stage of his career.

    The journeymen are older, shot Brian Londons. Wlad's fellow prospects are young Brian Londons. The contenders are luckier than average, prime Brian Londons. The champion is the luckiest Brian London of them all, who defeated a slightly less lucky, but still prime Brian London for the championship.

    The Ring heavyweight top 10 looks like this:

    CHAMP: Brian London
    1. Brian London
    2. Brian London
    3. Brian London
    4. Brian London
    5. Brian London
    6. Brian London
    7. Brian London
    8. Brian London
    9. Brian London
    10. Brian London

    All of the Londons will use the same training, fighting style, and coaches that the original version did. No roided Londons will be permitted.

    As Wlad continues his career, younger Brian Londons will continue to be added to the mix. The division will not run out of them.

    Assuming that Wlad begins his career the same year as he did in reality, when (if at all) does he get the title, and how long would he realistically hold on to it?

    Is there some sort of comparison being made here between Ali, London and Wlad because of London`s awful display vs Ali?

    Good enough to beat another, less lucky version of himself? Yes, I think so.

    He's probably be a champion until he developed a bum knee and arthritis.

    This is a deliciously surreal thread. My guess is that somewhere along the line Wlad morphs into Brian London, thus rendering the outcome moot.

    It'd take a few fights though. That's an interesting side-point. How does a 3/4 Wlad hybrid fare against a 3/4 London hybrid in the final stages of full blown Londonitis? Does the admixture of Brian London DNA improve any aspects of Wlad's game or universally diminish it?
