aint looking good for akinwande
aint looking good for akinwande
and corectly so
If you fed Sam Peter Maurice Harris and Peter McNeely he would have had 2 successful title defenses too.
Sam Peter just ran into Vitali...not his fault, although him being virtually obese didn't help his cause. At one point in time Sam Peter maybe was the #2-3 heavyweight in the world at one point in time and deservedly so....can we say that (without laughing) about Henry Akinwande?
ok the brave warrior henry akinwande wins this round as worst of the chosen 2
Nikolai Valuev
beat ruiz on 12 round majority decsion for first reign as wba champ
1st defence owen back
2nd defence monte barrett TKO rd 11
3rd defence jameel mcline who injured his knee in 3rd unable to continue
lost title to Chagaev on majority decision
fought ruiz again for vacant title winning by unaminous decision
1st defence against 46 yr old holyfield winning on pts
lost title to david haye on pts
VS
Corrie Sanders
beat wlad klitschko by ko 2nd round for wbo title
vacated title to fight vitali klitschko
let the battle commence
I'd say that giant evolutionary chart come to life Valuev worse than Sanders.Namely because he gave Ruiz a couple of chances to be hvy champion and the fact he was horrific.He lost to Holyfield and fought like he was in awe of him.Sanders had great hand speed and power to hurt many hvys and I think his cell block ownage of Wlad takes it.Quality over quantity.
My vote goes to Valuev.
I'd say that recently the WBO title holders have been far better than the WBA title holders...not because of current title holders, just looking at who's been more impressive and who's fought better opposition.
Why are we counting WBO titlists as heavyweight champions ?
I'm sorry but I've never really considered them heavyweight champs.
Even Mercer and Morrison and I liked those two a lot.
"You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"
If you are talking all time worst then Primo Carnera was your man He lost the title to Max Baer hitting the canvas 11 times. He was as tall or 1inch shorter than another bad champion, Valuev. That fight couldn't happen because Prom died. He won the title with his feet. He kept the on top Of Jack Sharkey"s toes. It was so clumsy of him that he wsn't penalized.
I goota go with linear champ Leon Spinks. What was his record, 26-17?
