Originally posted by skullduggery View Postwlad would be just another European fighter thats gets pwnd by an american, but since he has the luxury of being soooo big, he beats more skilled fighters with his height and size advantage alone..... wlad cannot beat his older brother, simply because hes not bigger than him.... lol at all the fools who actually think wlad had top notch SKILLS.... this is a myth, because being able to keep someone 6 inches shorter than u at bay with a jab is only hard for a ****** lmao... wlad is nowhere close to the skill level of anyone top 10 p4p in the paat 3 decades!
i must admit tho, he is in shape (like most fighters) -_-....
and he uses his height well (thats not a skill)
if eddie chambers was 6'6, he would have beat wlads ass!.... that is all

lebron is playing successfully basketball in the nba, he is more known & richer than any active boxer right now, it was a smart move to play bball as a kid.
earning millions of $ without getting hit in the head, what do u want more ?
thats also one of the reasons why i dont understand how some ppl here on Boxingscene can discredit so many boxers.

Don't you think it's just as likely that Lebron would be a glass jawed bum that Wlad or Vitali would knock out in a round or two? You can't say if "insert tall athletic sportsman from random sport here" was a boxer, they would be good. Who knows?

Originally posted by Pirao View PostSure. The problem is there are some americans that think theirs is the only country where the athletes have other options, that's where they are wrong. What if Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo were boxers? Or Federer and Nadal? What if Alexander Karelin had boxed instead of being a wrestler? Noone knows, but using that excuse to try to diminish other boxers' success is pathetic.

Originally posted by Siggy View Postuh why is it always europe vs the us? last i checked europe is not a country and its population outnumbers the US 2.5 to 1.
when guys like brahmer, shumenov, stieglitz, sartison and zaveck hold belts, i wouldnt put too much stock in that.
