- He was undefeated.
- He had never been down, although he fought big punchers like Virchis
- He defeated Valuev more decisively than Haye did
- He was a world amateur Gold Medal winner
- He defeated the great Felix Savon twice, (Savon KOed David Tua and won Olympic Gold three times) the first time at the age of 17 in 1996
Everyone he fights is the best till Wlad knock them on their ass.
I still remember people on this forum boasting about the 'nigerian nightmare!". Or Wlad had 'never fought anyone his own size like Austin' or 'Chagaev looks in shape he's gonna test Wlad!'.
pfff same **** different day. Haye is around the same weight as Holyfield when he came up to HW. 2 years back Haye vs Wlad was 50/50. Now if haye ever grows a pair we all know he's going to get KTFO.
People here have memories like sieves.
And all this crap about a SHW division....like that matters with Valuev. or Fields. or Tyson Fury. Or Bowe. or Lewis. or Carnera. or Foreman 3rd.......only when the Klits KTFO their foes do we hear people moaning about the need for a SHW division; what a joke.
prime peter is no worse than Douglas, McCall, Bonecrusher Smith etc. When you really stop and think about it only Tyson, lewis and Holyfield are even comparable to the Klits. Briggs, McCall, Spinks etc can't hold a candle to the brothers.
