    On a good night Hasim Rahman had the pop to hurt any of the 3. Give me a break. We're talking about skill and heart, here.

    I just don't see Ali, Louis, Tyson, Holmes, Bowe or even Lewis being beaten by either of them in their prime. Sorry...

    Ah, so you feel the need to cheat the comparison by using their primes and comparing it against Wlad when Wlad wasn't in his prime. In other words you think Wlad is really good or else you wouldn't need to stack the deck. Got it.

    When Wlad got whacked he was in his prime... in fact, Wlad, now, is four years past his prime and physical peak. Wlad is getting by on skill in beating bums and with skill on playing boxing politics.

    Wlad's latter end of his career has been orchestrated due to boxing politics.

    Tyson lost to Williams and McBride, Ali lost to Berbeck and Spinks, Lewis lost to Rahman and McCall as did Holmes and Louis lost to Schmelling. I dont see Wlad losing to any of them in his prime which has been the past 10 years not the Wlad who lost earlier in his career

    Skill and heart are probably the biggest dysfunctional relationship and inner conflict known to a boxer. You think any of the 3 were showing tremendous 'skill' when being jaw jacked by a Galento, a Jones or Cooper and a Renaldo Snipes?

    Anyone with questions about a Sanders heart should check out his war with Rahman. Rahman ironically who said he had never been hit like that in his life!

    If Corrie Sanders came out firing, I think he has a shot against any of those three. He was big, strong and hit fast and hard (until he tired) and he was a southpaw. Louis never fought one, I don't think Holmes did, either. Ali fought Mildenberger but that was a different fighter. In the good old days, southpaws either saw the light or they drowned them. So the surviving lefties, while very rare, were real tough.
