    The Black Destroyer would SMOKE the Klitschko brothers. They couldnt even take ONE of his power punches either to the body or to the head. This isnt rose-tinted glasses for the Ali-era, this is common sense telling it like it is. These fighters of today are pure SHITE, THEY HAVE NO GUTS, NO DETERMINATION, NO HEART, NO STAMINA, NO WILL TO WIN.

    I like Shavers alot , he was a really big puncher , but lets not forget he also had a dodgy chin , he was about 211 lbs ,6'1. He would have to try to get round the size difference.
    But hey opinions are one thing , it sure would have been fun watching Earnie and The brothers Grim throwing bombs at each other.

    Vitali showed guts to want to continue against Lewis, when his face was hanging open like Missy's clunge

    Not sure, how anybody can predict with certainty that Vitali would get KOed. That uprcut that Lewis caught him with almost lifted him off his feet and he didn't even flinch.

    I always though Julian Jackson was p4p the hardest hitter in history but with the stats Big Al gave about being 6ft 1 and 211lb and Ali saying Shavers was the hardest puncher he faced, it could be Ernie who gets that accolade.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    we all know hw's score more ko's in general as they are so heavy , shavers was a big puncher for sure , but personally i think Julian Jackson was the king of the 1 punch ko's.
    Shavers was all good , big puncher with dodgy chin , who doesnt want to see a fighter like that.

    always knowing Shavers could launch that Nuclear Bomb made all his fights entertaining.
