    Bowe knew Lewis would beat him,Wilder needs to man up & face top guys like Whyte/Parker & so on.
    @ least AJ does not Duck these guys can't say the same for Wilder.

    Hey Proctor , Wlad did fight Fury and Joshua , and he lost to both of them.

    Life n death with Jennings?? Ortiz pieced Jennings up at an older age than Wlad was. Wlad looked poor because he has zero inside game and the ref wasn't allowing him use his trusted huggy bear tactics.

    Age had nothing to do with it as proven by his even bigger life n death struggle with Sam Peters years earlier. Wlad cant deal with pressure or movers.
    Haye moved from side to side a little and that was enough to take Wlads steel hammer out of the picture.
    Fury in there that night would have been Dusseldorf all over again. Wlad doesn't have the angles to land on Fury. He needs to track him down but can't throw punches while on the move. Fury can and thats why any version of Wlad would get out boxed to a UD loss.
    Like how any Sturm would always get outboxed by Billy Joe Saunders. Thats what Wlad was - a HW version of Felix Sturm. A good fighter , not a great one.

    The version of Joshua that fought WK was a 17 fight novice who was overweight and spent half the fight gassed out.
    Young prospects aren't equipped to deal with the mental pressure that comes with headlining 90k at Wembley stadium against a seasoned veteran. With all those factors going against him , he still pulled out the victory.
    The experienced he gained from that fight made him a much better fighter. A more confidant and experienced Joshua gets the job done in the 5th round instead of the 11th. A younger WK who clinched a lot more gets caught with uppercuts earlier rather than later.
    Joshua took the greatness test and he won. Vitali took the same test and he lost.
    It took WK over 50 fights to achieve what Joshua achieved in 20 fights.
    Fury / Joshua > Wlad
    This era >> last era.
    Engage the triggering.

    Everybody whose familiar with you knows you can't handle the sight of a successful British fighter. You're an authentic clown with no make-up who dksab and thats all there is to it.
    That goes for your @vnyc handle as well

    It's not terrible but it's filled with a lot of plodders like Miller, Breazeale and Kownacki who just get by on their size and toughness. There are relatively few smaller technical fighters like there were in the past, and quite a few of the top guys are getting on in age. On the plus side there's a lot of competition. The best fight the best far more regularly than they did in Wlad's time, which leads to a lot more exciting, higher level fights where the winner isn't known in advance.

    Personally I think it's an average era with a lot of openness giving it excitement. I'd love a few more technical guys in the mix though.

    Yep, Fury has insane punch resistance and recovery. Even Shpilka was outboxing Wilder, but got knocked out cold, when Fury got up.

    Miller isn't a plodder , Breazeale is a non-factor and bottom ranked Kownacki is this eras Arroela. During the Klitschko era Arreola was one of its best contenders. Kownacki isn't close to receiving a title shot any time soon.

    Arreola was always a clown. It's why Wlad never bothered to waste his time on him.

    It's weaker than the Klitschko era but there is more parity which creates the illusion of more talent depth.

    Weaker?? No.

    We are in the land of the GIANTS now - and any previous era would struggle to survive against them.

    Isn't it possible that AJ and Fury beat every HW in history just due to sheer SIZE ??

    If you are litterate , but can’t see how many people call this era weak in this thread alone you are prob blind. This era is def weaker than Klitchko era , simply because top guys of this era are a good step below wlad and Vit.

    No , because Fury is not that much taller or bigger than Vitali or Wlad and wlad who is shorter than Vitali is a bit taller than AJ .
