It all comes down to the grassroots level. I know it isn't a popular opinion with many, but the best athletic big men just aren't getting into fighting any more imo. Nothing will ever convince me that either Klitschko is "just to good", when you compare them with fighters who were around up until about 10-15 years ago. Agreed on the Thompson fight to, the fact that he has basically had as much success as anyone against Wlad (without knocking him out of course) just cements this for me. Klitschko probably could have iced everyone he's ever fought if he had some fire in him.
