    Those guys couldn't really box...Morrison did but vs a very slow George Foreman, Wlad is athletic and his jab is pretty damn good.

    From how Wlad has been beaten before you either have to be able to sneak a punch in there and nail him and never let up or you have to take a beating and withstand until Wlad gets tired and those times are coming fewer and fewer as Wlad is fighting smarter. The guys who could do that are: Tua, Morrison, and Rahman. Tua has never been KO'd, Morrison fought with heart and could take a beating, and Rahman could sneak a big punch in, he did it to Lewis.

    I don't see why people pick Bruno to win but I understand why they would like him to win, because he's the only true British heavyweight that was any good from the last couple of years....Lennox was Canadian/Jamaican/British so he wasn't 100% British the way Bruno was
    Razor Ruddock was a huge puncher and i can see him catching Wladimir Klitschko at some point and as for Frank Bruno he had terrific jab and was also a big puncher and was very dangerous in the first 6 rounds i can see him landing his big over hand right on Wladimir at some point.

    I know they are both big punchers but they had trouble with the top level fighters. I would compare Rudduck to Sam Peter and Bruno to Hasim Rahman....Bruno got beat by the likes of Witherspoon and Smith and Rudduck never really had a close fight with any prime top tier fighter the closest he got was going the distance with Tyson.

    David Tua

    Andrew Golota
    Michael Dokes
    Pinklon Thomas
    Michael Spinks
    Renoldo Snipes
    Tim Witherspoon
    Trevor Berbick

    I'm just curious to what everyone thinks

    I think Spinks, Tua, Ruddock, Morrison had a shot a Wlad even the Mercer that Lewis fought or the Holmes Tyson boxed had it in them it would depend on a few things.

    Wlad has been knocked out cold that gives fighters a boost so Wlad would not have the fear factor of a Tyson or Lewis. And remember those guys are better than anyone Wlad has been near and would not fear him.

    Lyle thinks he would beat this list:

    Dempsey,
    Louis,
    Marciano,
    Liston,
    Ali,
    Frazier,
    Foreman,
    Norton,
    Holmes,
    Tyson,
    Holyfield,
    Lewis.

    Sorry Lyle but you do overrate him. I think you want him to be better than he is for the sake of boxing. Well I think he'll get beat off Haye if they fight. He's too slow and despite having decent boxing skills eventually any class operator will test his chin and it will fail.

    I didn't put those fighters up there because right now he doesn't deserve to be mentioned with those guys.


    Is that overrating him? Is it honestly overrating him by saying he'd beat these guys who were just contenders?


    Well you think Haye is going to win and he hasn't even fought a live body at heavyweight....so who's overrating who?

    I know I'm jumping the gun but I always expected Evander to unify the heavyweight division when he moved up too and he did!
