    No way. At the very least, there is no way to know because they haven't been tested. But now we're talking about literally the all-time best heavyweights. The question to ask is how would they fare against top 25 guys, like Max Baer, Gene Tunney, Ken Norton etc.

    @brocktonblockbust - question for you. Can you explain why Gene Tunney isn't ranked higher on the all-time list when he beat Dempsey twice?

    Dempsey was loved so much that they believe that Tunney only won because Jack got old. Also Tunney fought one other defence and retired. No legacy as champion.

    Would any of the 30 fighters below have lost to anybody that either Wlad or Vitali beat?

    Well to start Big h Max is not that great of a heavywieght lost to lesser fighters. Gene Tunny not even a heavyweight by today standards and have problem with there size how many fights have you seen of him by the way. Patterson had no chin and lost to alot heavyweights not all of them great and his best weight was lhw. Jack johnson have no chance at all he lost to a lot of no bodys as well back in the early 1900s. Walcott was beaten by lesser fighters as well and Charles best weight was lhw not heavyweight. Spinks got gifts vs Holmes and best win is fucking washed up Cooney. Max Bear don't make me laugh sames goes for Moore best thing at lhw not hw i think your just hatting i can agree with the some of the fighters you posted like Holmes, Ali, Holyfield and Lennox still not sure about the old old fighters that we seen like none of though.

    I have tried hating the Klit brothers but I can’t. They are good and articulate guys who actually are tidying up the division from the dross that is there. Otherwise we will get poor champions. They probably do load the contracts in their favour when they can but they have fought in US and would come to England if necessary. They are in control of their careers and should be saluted for that.

    Big H said their opponents not the brothers themselves.

    Yea that is what i dont get Big H is bringing up really old fighters with like no footage of then fighters that would not even be heavyweights today. I understand some of the fighters but then he just stretching it.

    Big H said their opponents not the brothers themselves.
    I can read, but I'd say Haye and, Byrd beat all three. I'd pick Arreola to beat Morrison, who couldn't get past Purrity that Vitali stopped.

    How many of Holmes opponents would beat the guys above? Or Marciano's?

    This is a shit era but I think the Klits (ridculous tag team partnership ) would have beat loads of "great" heavyweights.

    Even David Haye would have been 50/50 with lots of the smaller "greats."

    Well the fighters he mention Like Max, Patterson, Morrison and Bear lost to nobodies in there own eras. The others he named were great lhw and never did anything at hw really. And the others are so old he does not even know how good they are. If you look at Jack Johnson record he lost to people we don't even know about. I think people today would do just fine against people form early eras just on size alone i mean some of the earlier guys were not even fucking heavyweights by today standards just a dumb thing to say.
