Foreman would beat him senseless..... ;) your right though, it takes great athleticism to flail around like a retard when you get hit on the chin like that.... Those mentioned Heavies were professinal fighters with heart, determination and steely will..... Wlad has yet to demonstrate those abilities...

Wlad never fought anyone who could jab and move like Ali or Holmes. Those guys would give him fits IMO. He'd be a tough fight for any HW who ever lived IMO though, just on his size, strength and skill alone.

Not for big power punchers he wouldn't like Tyson or Foreman.

Well Wlad is a big puncher with quick accurate shots as well, I'd pick Foreman or prime Tyson over him any day but I'd still have to say his physical tools makes him a big risk for either of them. Good jab, hard right hand, Wlad is a real good fighter.

I can tell you are being very diplomatic about this. ::**I personally like to rely on facts rather than just believe Ali would beat everyone because he is the self proclaimed greatest of all time.The fact still is Ali never fought a guy that was as fast, as strong, as quick, as big, as skilled as Wladimir is in one package.Foreman could punch but was not effecient with his punches and they were very wide shots.Wladimir throws much straighter shots and much faster.I could go on and on but if you don't like Wladimir I am not going to waste my time trying to convince you.

Thats very true, but at the same token Wlad has never fought someone with the footspeed, handspeed, jab, chin and ring generalship of Muhammad Ali.

Wlad is an ok fighter he isn't great by any means yes he has skills and good jab but when i watch Wlad he has never shouted wow at me when i watch him i just see decent hw with a bad chin and he would get beat by Holmes Lewis Foreman Tyson i would give Ruddock a shot aswell.

Exactly my point.That is why there is no way to come to any reasonable conclusion because there is nothing to base it on.So you can't just believe Ali would beat him just because he was Ali.
Re: Wladimer isn't a great but i give him a chance against some of the greats
Ali (outboxes him and probably gets a late stoppage)
Holmes (outboxes him)
Liston (Ko's him)
Louis (Brutally Ko's him)
Forman (Almost gets charged with murder)
Lewis (This one is closed to those under 18)
Frazier (one good left hook ends it late unless wlad busts him open)
Tyson ( :-X )
Tunney (meh i'll give him this one)
Rocky (Uhhh yeah this one doesn't take long. Rock crushes glass ;D )
Re: Wladimer isn't a great but i give him a chance against some of the greats
Wladimir has the ability to KO all of them.How about that.

No but does Wlad ?? jeez Wlad is decent thats it decent he hasn't even dominated weakest era of hws yet and has been koed by Sanders for crying out loud the guy who likes golf more than boxing most on that list would tear Wlad apart.
