Wladimir Klitschko beats Sonny Liston

I will give you speed.

Outside of that Liston either has the edge in everything or it is debatable.

 

Boxrec:yep Well we must agree, that size doesnt give advantage at Klitchko so give me to name who nail him?

 

ARe you asking who I think will beat Klitschko?

 

Maybe, if wolverine have advantage over his size against grizzly bear...

 

Well i think you're over simplifying things a bit. Everyone, and i mean everyone who fought Klitschko knew that they had to get inside and fight there to make it count. What happened? They either got knocked out trying to do so or were tied up. Brewster and Purrity beat him by simply outlasting him and Sanders by a brilliant combinations of counter punch timing, unorthodox southpaw stance, great hand speed and last but not least, a ton of power. I know you're trying to run your usual little man's argument that "all one needs to do is be able to fight on the inside and you win", but calling several top contenders "average" is not gonna do the trick.

Klitschko has a big edge in heart. That is, unless he quits on his stool after 6 rounds with Thompson next weekend.

 

Liston was slow by any standards (obviously not helped by age; well past physical peak in his more well known fights) - but his timing, reach, suprising inside fighting ability and overall skill make him a sure bet to steamroll the glass jawed Klitschko, even as an old man.

 

I think Mercer think same...

 

What, Ray Mercer? Klitshcko beat Mercer, you know? Klit has some embarrassing losses but he still managed to beat 'ol Ray.

 

Old Ray, but still Ray...old Liston also. So, who well give wlad real beating?

 

Current fighters?

 

Yes

 

I'd favour him to beat everybody. However, anybody with speed or power has a chance of exposing his undeniably frail chin. The biggest threat to him currently is Peter, who, if he comes in good shape and at a decent weight, has a good chance to KO him. However, if I had to predict a result of Klit/Peter II it'd be Klitschko UD12.

 

Very careful prediction. Haye has best chance to do it....someone else, no..

Lewis Ko'ed 2 times in 44 fights and wlad have already 53 fights and in probality he will lost very soon...

 

What do we mean by size?

Wlad is taller but this advantages can be a bit of a mixed blessing against an oponent with longer arms.

If Wlad throws a punch, Liston will be able to duck under while Wlad will only be able to pull backwards.
