John L Sullivan vs Vitali Klitschko

[FinitoElDinamita]

Sullivan would catch a beatdown so bad as if he stold the last prohibition bottle..

It'd be over very very quickly and I think Sullivan would deserve it as I've heard he was quite the cock sucker.


Mean spirited fat scum that enjoyed hurting people.

Yes he might have been a grandfather of the modern sport of boxing but by all accounts a racist and a bully.

Interestingly he was the first "athlete" in history to make a million bucks so I believe.

[p4pking]

I don't see who beats him.

[KickMuck]

You know who would be picked for a movie

I am one of the people that believe the further back you go the worse things get.

Cars, technology, medicines... why would sports be any different?


Hell I barely rate anyone from back then.

Rocky Marciano wouldn't get out of the gym today.

Joe Louis? Please Lennox Lewis wouldn't let him carry the spit bucket.

Jack Johnson..... LOL give it a rest.



I (WE) respect them for what they did in their time against their time opponents but gtfo that they come close to competing today.

Take a middleweight back in 1900 and put him against one of the cruizerweights that are squeezed into a middleweights body today, it would be a brutal massacre.

No fighter pre-1960 is beating a Klitschko.
