Could the big Kansas farmer out reach the Ukrainian?

Everyone from that era sucked.
Willard was a big huge white farmer they got to beat an old Johnson. Jess was brave taking the beating from Dempsey but that is all.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Wlad wins but Willard could punch and had a decent jab and was quicker than most modern fans give him credit for . Would Willard be harder than most of wlad's titles defences, yes wlad would know he had been in a fight
I reckon the average Super Heavyweight Amateur boxer from most back water townships today could use Willard as a life like punching bag session LOL
Except those TITLE (tm) bags are pretty high quality and durable.
It's a toss up which one, Willard or the Title (tm) bag would provide the better workout for Klitschko haha.
Joke thread.

No I wasn't joking. Would love too see this fight.
You like Willard right? Your obviously not old enough to have a personal connection with him so I guess it's some sort of nostalgic reverence then.
In that case, you definitely WOULDN'T want to see this fight.
Nobody would want to see Wladimir Klitschko knock out Willard. Nobody would pay to see such crap.
Your comparing this...

You gotta keep it real bro. There is no plan, no physically possible way that Willard can survive, even in theory, so much as a full 3 minute round with Wlaidmir.
The guy got knocked out by light HW sized Jack bloody Dempsey! A guy who couldn't even box and just winged wild shots left and right until the big log fell over. This Dempsey never once beat a decent 200+ opponent even in his OWN era, let alone comparatively.

There's nothing to underestimate.
- Jack Dempsey is NOT a heavyweight as we describe them today (in reality a LHW comparable).
- Jess Willard would be one of the smallest opponents that Klitschko had ever faced, he would be by far the slowest and the least athletic.
- Jack Dempsey and Jess Willard both would have been the LEAST skilled opponents Klitschko has EVER faced.
Sorry but facts are facts.
Forget Klitschko, any half decent pro HW would knock either guy straight out.
And it's a no brainer really because they boxer 100 bloody years ago! LOL
Anybody reading who doesn't know who DEmpsey is needs to just take a look at this picture compared to Klitschko...
