prime Corrie Sanders vs 2017 Wladimir Klitschko

Mike had fast hands, can slip the jab and punch extremely hard with either hand. He would absolutely smoke wlad

You picked Lewis on his worst night. He's more athletic In his prime and much more aggressive with the better chin

Usyk with his condition, angles and southpaw style boxes stiff wlads head off. Usyk also has shown a superior chin, so doubt wlad could stop him. This might be the easiest fight of the bunch to predict, well after Tyson.

 

I don't know about that, but that's one of the scenarios.

Yeah, but even in his prime he had troubles with big punchers.

 

Wlad had more trouble and he seemed to struggle with fury's size. Lewis has the same reach as Fury and would win a battle of jabs

No way could I see wlad beating lewis, no chance

Do a poll and we will see how others vote. You are entitled to your opinion but the vast majority that know boxing will pick lewis

I don't really care what would the poll say, it's all opinion at the end of the day. Wouldas don't exist. If you conducted a poll before Klitschko vs Sanders fight, 99% of people would say Wlad beats him easily. Reality said different. But this time, we don't have reality to verify our statements.

 

You picked one of the worst versions of Wlad to go off of. And if Rahman or McCalls right hands could shut lewis’s brain off… Wladimir’s sure as hell could. Wladimir had the better, harder, FASTER right hand than both those guys. Also had a nasty left hook that lewis most likely would forget about after tasting the impact of Wlad’s cross. Which is why I always thought Wlads left hook, especially the lead one, would’ve been the shot to hurt lewis and quite possibly KO him.

It’s so obvious lewis was uncomfy with the Wlad fight. Lol I mean why the hell else call up Sanders the night before the Wlad fight and urge him to go on a kamikaze attack hoping he’d get through with something??? If Wlad was such a walk in the park for lewis ‘THE LION’… why not make a quick and easy 20-30 million??? It was at the time the absolute biggest fight in boxing to make.

Manny Steward knew what was up. lol He knew Wlad was a SERIOUS threat to lewis. And lewis sensed it


“Hello?? Yeah this Corrie?? Yeah this is Lennox! Ohh I got your number from your agent! Haha! Yeahhh I know it’s a bit weird I never called you before!! But hey.. about this Wladimir fight!! Go right at him! You have hands three times faster than mine and you’re a southpaw!! I never fought a southpaw before but imagine it’s awkward as hell! Attack him Corrie!! Please!! He makes me nervous!”

 

With Wlad's huggy bear style and a plan to neutralise Corrie's big left, Wlad may have a chance. He was caught cold and realised a rematch was dangerous, so he let his brother do his dirty work. That didn't mean he couldn't win the rematch

 

Just watched it again.

This really isn't like Wlad's other 4 losses were he was either competitive/fairly competitive or punched himself out when in the lead. Sanders makes Wlad feel like he has to make the move because had good distance control then counters with his fast hands and power. He hurts Wlad almost instantly and doesn't let him recover.

But if Wlad gets past the early rounds his chances go up massively here.

 

Sanders would smash any version and most importantly, we don't need a hypothetical, as Sanders already smashed him very easily

 

If the question had said 2009-2011 Kiltschko in particular I think my money would be on him.

 

wlad is increasingly overrated here and i can't figure why. he enjoyed a long reign courtesy of his big brother and a weak af era. lots of revisionist history going on here.

 

Or, Sanders is underrated.

 

Weak era argument can be apply to all long reigning champions. His brother was a injury prone mess, so you gotta give it up to the fate and biology rather than him, lol.
