Oh brother. I can watch 1 round of either klit, and I'm quickly reminded how bad they are. So slow, so clumsy, horrible technique, look like a drunk bar bum throwing sloppy punches. Yes they have good heavyweight power, but that aren't even remotely in the same league as ATG heavyweights. Put Klit in the 90s era and I doubt he would even be in the top 5 contenders list.
Wlad has ruined the division, that's the only answer. And All the next potential great heavyweights want to play football in the NFL on Sundays not be heavyweight champ..
What happened is that Eastern Europe was allowed to fight. The American HW's cant deal with that, and wouldn't from the 80s on.
That's because Wladimir makes them look average. Povetkin is definitely top class but just couldn't compete with Wladimir. Might as well give Wladimir credit even if his style is frustrating to watch.
