Non champions that would be good today

bernardo mercado n that giant mexican fighter who rattled frazier bfor smoke got to him what was his name? tucker, spoon, norton all three had some version of the title if not for very long. ibeabuchi woulda gave the klits a battle

[aaron.king]

Gotta mention Harry Wills. He might get a little overrated by some because a certain aura has been generated as a result of his lengthy ordeal trying to secure a title shot with Dempsey. But he'd be big enough and was certainly skilled enough to seize a post-Klitschko heavyweight division.

Manuel Ramos?

Honestly, a prime golata would be a handful for everyone at heavy including the klits,,

If golata's head is screwed on right, he was very talented, especially with the jab,,

he dominated bowe twice, and micheal grant only to throw away victories

I could see him beating povetkin, haye, and probably go to war with the klits,,,,
Would have loved to see golata vs fury,,,, that would be epic

golota did have alot of talent. one of the few super heavyweights that was mobile and could throw punches in bunches to the body and head. too bad he was such a mental case. I really thought he was going to go somewhere

Golota always had his head screwed on wrong. That's why he lost every single meaningful fight he was in. Tbh, I'd pick all the fighters you listed over him. At least they know how to win.

True but if his head was screwed on properly, he would have been really good, I guess he is more of a wasted talent type guy, because your right, he would probably shoot himself in the foot vs povetkin, haye, etc... Plus haye may jump him in the first minute of the fight like lewis, brewster etc did.....

Lyle I think could easily be champ today. If he could drop Foreman like that Wlad would be out cold. Not to mention he had decent boxing ability as he actually gave a good account for himself against Ali.

Quarry beats everybody not named Klitchsko. Too tough for Haye, Fury, Povetkin. Just cut from a different cloth. Vital would be a nightmare for him but I could see him putting Wlad through hell. The man had an iron will. Povetkin looked like a poor mans quarry in that wlad fight imo

Quarry was the first name to pop into my head.

Here's one I haven't seen mentioned yet: Ike Ibeabuchi (assuming he stays sane).

And Wills is the second name that popped into my head.

How's this for a dark horse entry from roughly the same era: Joe Jeannette.
