Riddick Bowe vs Wlad Klitschko Lennox Lewis vs Vitali Klitschko Mike Tyson vs Nikolay Valuev Evander Holyfield vs Alexander Povetkin George Foreman vs Eddie Chambers Which year wins? :good
Bowe (even the one from Golota fight) TKO Wlad in 7 Lewis wins on cuts ... wait, wait is that possible :huh Tyson from 80ties KO1, from 90ties KO in 5 Holyfield wins by Povetkin postponing the fight 3 times in a row Foreman by head decapitation, and live griling demonstration
Riddick Bowe > Wlad Klitschko Lennox Lewis > Vitali Klitschko Mike Tyson > Nikolay Valuev Evander Holyfield > Alexander Povetkin George Foreman > Eddie Chambers 5-0 for the 1995 top five.
I seriously think Chambers would beat Foreman if he boxed smart - remember this is the 95 Foreman and Morrison outboxed him to a decision...
Head to Head, Vitali beats any of the 1995 fighters as they were in 95, except for Lewis. Wlad would be 50-50 with Evander. Other than that, I can't see any of today's beating any of the 1995 crew.
yep. Probably KOs him. While he's not in my alltime top ten list, on account of a lack of resume, If it was strictly Head to head, Lennox is the only fighter of the past couple of decades (since Holmes' prime) that I would pick over him.
The emphasis is on the word 'current' - the Vitali that laboured to victory against Gomez is not the one that emphatically took out Williams a few years ago.
Wlad KO's Bowe Lewis TKO's Vitali (todays Vitali's getting old and 95 Lewis was a good pre-prime Lewis) Valuev UD Tyson (Tyson had probs with big guys, Valuev is the extreme) Povetkin SD Holyfield (be a barnburner and damn close) Chambers UD Foreman (Chambers is fast and Foreman of old was powerful but had probs with good movers, IE Morrison and Young) 4-1 for nowdays
Wlad would wipe the floor with Bowe. Actually, Bowe wouldn't even come into the ring and say how Wlad's not worthy to fight him. Povetkin Evander. I'd give the edge to Evander for knocking Povetkin out in the mid rounds. 1995 Lennox is one year after losing to McCall. Still, Vitali is 38 now and therefore I think he'd lose to even a traumatized and overly cautious Lewis in 1995. Eddie has a good chance against a 1995 Foreman (as opposed to the 1975 version). Heck a limited Axel Schulz beat Foreman in 1995 and was robbed by Don King's judges. Valuev Tyson? Valuev would hug him to death and TKO Tyson late. Tyson would look good for 2-3 rounds, connecting a couple of shots, Valuev would be wobbled but not fall and keep hugging Mike. After 3 rounds Mike is so tired he stops moving and becomes a sitting duck.
