Larry Holmes: If I fought who Wladimir Klitschko fought, I'd have 40 title defenses

:deal

Have you noticed how hard they've tried to
polish Beyonce Wilder??? Polishing his padded
record... Always mentioning his Bronze medal
for America... putting his fights on national TV...
actually mentioning him on ESPN in between
football's latest drama of the day...

None of the non-American Heavyweight Champions
of the past 15 years have gotten this sort of red carpet
treatment... Not in the USA at least!!

Maybe Germany and the UK get big audiences for
Heavyweight fights but in the USA they get more
viewers for Girls Volleyball practice...

:yep

 

Doubt it.

That's a lot of different styles Wlad has fought.

Povetkin would have blasted through Holmes' competition.

Probably could beat Holmes too.

 

Holmes has generally better names but he missed a few and had a questionable against Witherspoon. Therefor his reign was less dominant IMO, than Wlad's who has fought all of the best of his era, save his brother.

Also, due to his general attitude and comportment, while Larry makes my all-time top 6 in great HWs, I rank him # 1 on list of HW boxing kunts.

 

How many different styles of scheit, old and past it are there?

Seems Povetkin is the only guy who holds any real credibility as a Wlad opponent - even amongst Wlad's fans.

No surprise there, as Povetkin would probably have 'blasted' his way through Wlad's competition as well...

...Oh no, wait... ...we've some evidence of this already...

Hasim Rahman
Eddie Chambers
Ruslan Chagaev
Chris Byrd

With Mariusz Wach soon to be added to the list of shared losers, before the end of the year, this probability will look even greater.

Shame Wlad had to deliver the worst Heavyweight performance ever seen in a prize ring against Povetkin though, isn't it?
