The Klitschko's would have had no trouble with any of the fighters you mentioned. Witherspoon? Really
You need to watch some of those guys in there prime Lyle, especially Tim Witherspoon who at his best was a better version of Ken Norton. Greg Page fought alot like Muhammad Ali but not as good obviously, and Pinklon Thomas had one of the finest jabs in Heavyweight history. Plus they were a good size aswell 6'3.
6'3 or not it doesn't matter, the Klitschko's are GREAT heavyweights. Ken Norton was like Andrew Golota, he could BOX with anyone but get a big banger in there and he was toast! Witherspoon fought Holmes well enough but other than that he was NOT impressive. As for Greg Page, you know who else tried to fight like Ali...Larry Donald...a guy that Vitali had 0 trouble with.
