This is getting ridiculous.

booklord · Apr 7, 2008

Wlad's tough, but he has always struck me as someone who doesn't really start fighting until some "wakes him up". Brock had to cut him before he really started fighting hard. In his last two fights I don't think he "woke up" at all. The thing is that the heavyweight division is so lackluster that he doesn't have any meaningful competition.

Personally I'd like to see him go against Valuev. Not that Valuev is that good. But Valuev would put Wladimir out of his comfort zone and into the never before experienced position of fighting someone bigger with a longer jab.

Wladimir Klitschko is a very good fighter who I believe has a shot at greatness, should he continue to win. If my stats are correct, he is now 11-2 in world title fights and has a respectable record of 50-3-0-44. He has my vote as being the best fighter of the last 3 years, but has not quite convinced me of undisputed status. I would like to see him beat guys like Peter ( again ), Povetkin, and maybe the winner of Chagaev-Valuev. If he manages to beat some or all of these guys and keeps the "L's" off his record, then I would seriously consider as being a true all time great. For now, his resume is still a work in progress.

Yep...and I say The Tiger exposes this chinless wonder again.

Greatest ever!:rofl Larry Holmes would school him.

Hey KobeIsGod...do yourself a favor. Stick to basketball, already.

The answer may be an obvious and resounding 'Yes!' to most true boxing fans, but lets take a look at some of the facts and logic to shut those old guys (living in the past) up:

No style seems to work against Wlad; you cant slug it out with a 6'6" guy with power like him, its impossible, noone could do it. Except Corrie Sanders. Do you see any other fighter in history like Sanders? No, didnt think so.

guys like Frazier and Tyson couldnt 'pressure' a specimen like Wlad (at 6'6") - they dont have the toughness or the power to contemplate a fight like that. Tyson, frazier et al are great, no doubt, but that style is suicide 'vs' Wlad. Only a guy like Lamon brewster could pull that off. Nobody else in history. Maybe a prime Ross Purrity.

now the haters think Wlad may be a bit chinny (lol) - so how about swinging wildly for his chin? No chance with a 6'6" athlete like Wlad; I'd say only someone with the unique combination of deceptive slowness and clumsiness like Sam peter could pull THAT off :good

What about these pretenders like Holmes or Lewis? Some of you old, out of touch guys might ask...?
Wlad clearly batters and stops Lewis imo, here are a list of reasons why:

He's an inch taller

Louis, 6'2"
Liston 6'1"
Tyson 5'11"
Lewis 6'5"
Ali 6'3"
Wlad 6'6"

Need I say more?

You are an idiot!

BTW yes Wlad would beat many ATG!

Boxing fans in USA are such a hypocritical that it almost makes me sick...

HWdivision is weak now.. yeah right coz u just dont have any top guy on there really... Face it, Wlad is just beyond others with his shitty jaw etc etc...

WIND IS BLOWING FROM THE EAST and not going to be any changes from these american double cheese hamburger fighters:nut

With all due respect, your insults towards American fight fans are not necessary and nor do they reflect the views of the whole. There were plenty of eras throughout history that were dominated primarily by American fighters that Americans themselves found weak. In additon, there are actually quite a few fans in the states of Klitschko, Povetkin, Chagaev and Peter. Frankly, I'm not one of them, but its not because of their national origin that I don't find them particularly interesting.

Keep the topic on boxing and not on politics.

Sam Peter has 'dozens' of skills.

Its not an impressive number. In sport, a 'skill' is the putting together of a number of 'techniques'. Somebody with a dozen skills would get a boxing lesson from Charlie Zelenoff.

The way Wladimir fought last time is a shame.
He is not even close to being the greatest of all time.
