Bute's level of opposition: are comparisons to the Klitschkos valid?

Manny Pacquiao has too what's your point?

No one's fucced with him in over 8 years and he's cleaned out the best available fighters in his division.

Bute fought bums in his division and got destroyed in his first fight on the elite level.

Vlad has fought the best in his division and has been unbeaten for 8 years.

How is that even close to being similar?

A poster on another thread mentioned that the Klitschkos do essentially the same thing. It's just that there's no one good to expose them.

In your opinion does he have a point?

True to the sense that there's no one around real good to fight but it doesn't mean they'd get exposed both there games have improved specially walds do there's no telling but the comps not their fault they fight who they can which is everyone it's not there fault that they come in over weight no speed no real power and there only game plan is to survive

WLAD'S GAME WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO IMPROVE


IN A REAL ERA

after a sanders tko

he would have been fed to Lennox as a record padder

That not completely true because let's face it the mans smart if he woulda got sat on his ass back then like he did in this era he woulda made a change in style and attitude. Plus the AM's woulda told him he had to be come a more complete fighter back then they developed there craft he woulda done the same I'm sure as he did now if you gonna put him in that era you have to think he would act with the era and be a smarter fighter instead of just comming out and swinging like he did in his earlier days

It's easy to look like a monster when you are fighting average opponents.
