Wlad to fight on for another decade............

He will always face criticism due to the lack of big names in the division. Its just the way it is. I think he would be a tough matchup for a lot of the more famous hws but its all speculation.

 

good man, while your the best build your legacy bro.
its not like your getting any props now.

 

a 100 yr old holmes would destroy wlad. mike tyson would have ripped wlads head off.

 

u got it christo. he would definitely break the top 10 heavy weight ranks if he can do that. :bbb

 

I was always a fan of Klitschko but the heavyweight divisioun is an absolute joke. It's not Klitschko's fault at all but it's miserable. Tyson Fury is an out of shape turd and so have others in the heavyweight division, like Cory Sanders and that 7 foot behemoth, Valuev or whatvaver his name was. Chisora is a joke too... The guy that had talent was David Haye but he was a loudmouth and a bit small to challenge Klitscko. The fact that two brothers have dominates the division is an absolute joke, for real. What are the chances of two brothers dominating middleweight, welterweight, light heavyweight divisions? It would've been great if Lennox would've been in his prime now, i think he would've beaten Klitschko but it would've been a tough fight.

I will say this though, I would pick Klitschko and Lewis over any other heavyweight in history, including Ali. Not because they are greater, but because they are so big that they warrant a class of it's own, like 'super heavyweight'. Klitchko would beat Ali easily, too big for him. Foreman was considered big back then and Wlad outweighs him by like 40 pounds; he's just too big and skilled for his size. Obvioulsy Ali was MUCH GREATER... it just feels like comparing a welterweight with a cruiserweight.

 

I doubt he'll have 10 more years of longevity. Extensive Roid usage catches up to you in the end.

 

I think that it's a misunderstanding or something. He'll almost certainly retire withing the next 2 years.

 

He's at an elite level of longevity now. It's a short list of heavyweights who last long enough to have fought well in multiple eras, let alone be a top rated fighter or champion.

Since 2000, Wlad's been ranked 13 of the 14 possible years using the year-end ratings. Only Patterson, Holyfield, Ali, and Louis have achieved being ranked top 10 for 15 years or more.

 

yeah, i was thinking Foreman was more like 215 but he was 225... still, foreman was considered a beast back then and he would look small vs Klitscko. Wlad is just a 'super' heavyweight. He is ranked #3 pound for pound by ring magazine which i'm not sure i agree with but he's a huge man with skillzzz.

 

Wlad would have ktfo Holmes and Tyson.

 

Uhh you act like Im criticizing him when Im doing the exact opposite. He and his brother have dominated.. but are unlikely to get the respect due to the perception of the hw division. Reading comprehension is your friend.
