    Prime 4 Prime...Louis is too small and chinny, he gets destroyed by either Klitschko.


    Even though I am non-White, I have to agree with that sentiment.

    I have never in my life seen such a strong World Champion as Wladimir Klitschko, yet Louis was about as strong as Pacman or Hatton.

      19 more defenses...!

      I doubt he will defend the titles 19 times to reach 26 defenses (which would be epic). He is in the early 30s, and he would need to fight 3-4 times a year to make this come true.

      HIGHLY UNLIKELY.

      I see him dominating the division another 2-4 years, with some 5-10 successful title defenses. Then there will be new kids on the block, and one of them will have the stamina and speed to push Wlad off the throne.

      But, right now, I can't see a worthy challenger, except for his brother. NONE.

            How in the world will he have the time to do another 19 fights? He fights once this year, so he'd need 3 defenses for the next six years. No way he can remain on top that long. Not in sports, where a sprained leg can end your career. His brother was out for four years thanks to injuries.

              He doesn't fight often enough, in my opinion, to break that record. He'll probably be retired before he could.

                he's already had 56 fights, i doubt he'll fight enough to break that record

                  Joe Louis had 25 world title wins in a row (I don't count the 4-rounder against Davis a world title fight, it was some kind of exhibition fight).

                  Of these 25 fights only 8 were real heavyweight fights. The rest was against cruisers, subcruisers or Louis himself being a cruiser. 1 of these 8 fights was against a bum (Jack Roper, 60-44). None of them was undefeated. 4 of these 8 fought Louis after losing their prior fight.

                  In other words: One more fight and Wlad Klitschko breaks Louis' heavyweight title wins streak.

                  See it positively: Wlad will never break Louis' cruiserweight title streak record.

                    Wladimir won his title from a sub-cruiser so his whole title reign shouldn't count.

                      This is a disgraceful post. One of the worst I have ever read. You're an idiot.

                      Moving on to the subject at hand. Wladamir is DOMINANT. I want to see more DOMINANT KO Victories soon.
