    I'm not, everything is fair and square. :)

    Anyway, strange to see that there is even a debate between Klitschko and Spinks.

    Spinks has a very tight defense, excellent head and foot movement.Spikns ain't easy to find.

    Wlad has been fighting guys like Pulev who just stand there and it is like please hit me.

    Yes, apart from some very unrealistic comments.

    It's not like Spinks could either outbox or stop Wladimir. The debate rather seems like some people hating on Klitschko at all costs while the others are defending him.

    Spinks is arguably the best light heavy of all times and you say he has not the skills to outbox Wlad.It israther you being unrealistic

    Wlad was almost never tested.When is he gonna react when he is in a real fight, whe he gets hit more frequently.

    He ain't gonna fight the ATzgs and take 3 punchesin the fight.You may not like it but these questions are legimate.

    Their list doesn't interest me in the slightest, and that's assuming you simply didn't made it up. Foreman, Tyson and Lewis are those boxers with comparable power to Wlad, and trainers accounts favour Wlad in the case of Tyson and Lewis. Coo ney is a non-quantity in this debate.

    You could argue that Wlads power is of limited importence, since his catious style stops his from applying the pressure he could. Save that, there's little to ad.

    Since Wlad is a headhunter who always stays on the outside, boxers with good defence who goes all out to survive troubles him. I think Spink would be such a boxer. But Spink winning? No.

    That list was published in 2003. Nearly 12 years ago.

    So what? Wasn't Klitschko fighting then? You can point me to a more current list if one is available.
