    You never answered my questıon about what constıtutes a faır fıght. Yes or No Lyle, can you answer eıther Yes or No....do you thınk Marcıano vs Klıtschko would be a faır fıght? Yes or No.
    Fine you don't care about them, whoopty do. Wlad has 51 KO's in 58 wins that's pretty fucking impressive and guarantees that he's one of the hardest hitting heavyweights of all time. The Super heavyweight division has been attempted before and it simply does not work. There are plenty of heavyweights as big or bigger than Wlad, but they just aren't as good in the ring.

    Marciano vs either Klitschko brother isn't a fair fight, Rocky was BARELY a heavyweight himself. Today he would be closer to light heavyweight than anything else. So I would say NO....but I would also say Marciano vs everyone this side of Sonny Liston wouldn't have been a "fair fight" not that The Rock wouldn't have won his fair share, but they just wouldn't match up in size.

    good I agree as well ıt would not be faır at all, and we all agree ıts merely due to the sıze dıfferentıal, rıght? Therefore eıther the Rock would need to be reclassıfıed as a lıghtheavy or whatever, or the K bros would have to be reclassıfıed as Superheavy. They both cannot be consıdered heavyweıghts.

    Rocky could fight at heavyweight if he wanted to I mean he did & the rules back then weren't very different from the ones now, it's just he wasn't fighting big fighters he was fighting other smaller heavyweights. There's only a limit on how much you can weigh up to Cruiserweight or back then Light heavyweight and since Rocky was over 175 he was a heavyweight. The creation of the cruiserweight division has basically created a "Super Heavyweight division" out of the heavyweight division

    He would still be The Brockton Blockbuster....he'd just look a lot smaller when standing next to the heavyweights.
