    I personally think every fight fan on earth would want to see that match, and probably every little old lady, high school kid and college professor, too.

    And let me ask you this. Would you bet the farm on either fighter?
    Ali crushes both.
    Mr. Pride, I'd like to hear your answers to the 2 questions I asked Paddy 448. In fact, I'd like to hear everyone's answers.

    Mr. Pride, I'd like to hear your answers to the 2 questions I asked.
    I actually answered your question earlier in the thread. I think Wlad is the most dominat HW in the division today and will absolutly go down as the best HW of the era as for ATG status, he'll probably make a good argument for it. Vitali, probably not, though at his peak he was damn good. Wlad has held the strap longer, been more dominant at the top and is in no way showing signs of slowing down. I think it is possible. I don't put alot of stock in the weak competition argument due to both Joe Louis and Rocky Marciano both having generally weak competition in their respective reigns. Joe louis's fights were once refered to as the "bum of the month club" yet both men are held in high regard on the ATG list and rightfully so. It's not a fighters fault that the competition is fairly weak. It's just disheartening to know that we'll never really know what they're capable of. Althought Wlad and Vitali are strong and large a guy like Ali with a chin, superior handspeed and far better legs would be a stylistic nightmare for either one regardless of their respective skills. Neither would have much of a shot.

    Does that answer your questions?

    I am sorry, sir. I didn't make myself very clear. My apology. I meant the 2 questions I asked of Paddy 448, as follows:

    1. I would love to see Wlad or Vitali fight Ali, toe to toe in their prime. Wouldn't you?


    2. Would you bet the farm on either fighter?


    Actually, I would like to hear other posters answer those questions, as well.

    Yes, I would love to see them fight Ali, to watch both get brutally knocked out and yes, I would bet my place, furniture, dog and my set of nuts that Ali slaps them both around like Jersey Strippers.

    Until now I was unaware that Jersey strippers were slapped around so often

    I guess I don't have to feel so bad about last nights events

    Nah, they're used to it... Careful, though. Some care blades. Don't get yourself cut, Daxx.

    LOL, these guys are just doing their job. Why do you want to see them "brutally knocked out"? You got something against them?

    Oh, of course and yes, kind of. What I have against them is they have a strangle hold on the division. Imagine they weren't brothers and you just had two guys that were champions that said"We're never going to fight eachother." It'd piss you off. You saw my unbias oppinions on them above. I have the utmost respect for them but if someone came along and shelled them it wouldn't bother me.

    But, but, but....Boston, I don't think you answered my first question. Why do you want to see these brothers "brutally knocked out"? Because they won't fight each other? Because you like to see brutal knock-outs and it might as well be the Klits? Why? I'm curious to know.

    Probably so he doesn't have to read threads on how they're the the biggest, strongest, most athletic heavyweight boxers of all-time.
