Holmes:
Won title at 28-0 against Ken Norton( Who's record at the time was 40-4); winning the WBC belt! He defended his WBC belt over 17 times before Relinquishing the title. ( Defended his belt against Earnie Shavers, Muhammad Ali, Trevor Berbick, Leon Spinks, Randall Cobb, and Tim Witherspoon to name a few). He did relinquish title for the IBF title, in which he defened 3 times. Before losing to Michael Spinks, Holmes went to 48-0! Ending his career at 69-6 (loses to Spinks twice, Mike Tyson, Oliver McCall, Brain Neelsen, and Evander Holyfield.
Klitschko:
Lost to Ross Puritty (record at time of defeat 24-0) who had a record of 25-13-1. Lost to Corrie Sanders at 40-1. At this time Wlad still hadn't won a major title. He lost again to Lamon Brewster at 42-2. He finally won a major at title (being the IBF title) at 46-3 against Chris Byrd. He has defended his title 12 times since winning it AMD has gathered a couple others.
My final comment; after lose of his trainerll, the great Emanuel Steward; will Wlads career still strive?
DOUBTFUL!
