Would the klitchko's last in the 70s?

[cupocity303]

I think Vitali would be in the runnings and hold the crown at least once.

but there's no way to tell since that era is over forever.

That Era is OVERRATED.

Based on guys who gives Black & White TV fight footage too much respect.

If Vitali is in the running, then so it Wlad. The Wlad from the past five years, that is. Not the puberty level Wlad who was still bouncing around too much on his toes, wasting energy like he is a Smaller fighter.

But the current Wlad who's gotten his style together, and is the total package.

Does everyone seem to forget an old Lewis smashing Vitali's face to bits. Then you wonder why people disagree with your dumb opinions. Try spin that stat and most would say that Lewis isn't the best HW ever let alone a clearly past his prime Lewis who had already being KO'd by Rahman.

How is that relevant?

How has Vitali done since? Not even lost a round correct?

That's one fight where he didn't dominate, and that was his first BIG fight. If anything, he showed that he can take punishment if he has to.

In fact it's more credit to him, considering how dominant he has been since.

If all you have to go on is a fight almost a decade ago, against a great fighter (granted on his way out Lewis), then you've got nothing.

But in your flawed world view, you probably think any dominant victory from Vitali is because his opponents are bums, yet when he struggles for once, it's because he isn't that great.

NEWSFLASH: All great fighters have struggled, some even against B-level opponents. Yet most of them have excuses, or their fans do. When Wlad and Vitali struggle a few times, it's because they're garbage right?

How you desperately try to invent a counter-argument. It's not "some random website" but it's the website that owns the copyright to this picture and specializes in cataloging and selling picture rights. If anyone knows the date then it's them.

oh rly?
i didnt know the website existed in 1963

What other big fights? he also took a break for about half this decade. Wlad apart from his losses to basically bums got knocked down by Peter 3 times so his chin is as weak as f uck. So apart from the times they either got outclassed or KTFO yeah we have nothing to go on.

Byrd and Chmabers are not similiar to Ali, Ali was smart he wouldn't stand in front of Wlad getting jabbed all night he would be on his toes and coming in with explosive combinations.

After getting hit with some telephone pole jabs he may not be so eager to explode in with a combo, its why everyone else looks horrible, Chambers tried early to get in with combos and get away, after tasting a right hand from Wlad he became cautious.

You OBVIOUSLY mainly watched "YouTube highlight videos" of The Clay.

The Clay is one of the worst punch eaters ever. Eats even the slowest jabs. No reflexes whatsoever (except at the beginning of his career).

he would be on his toes and coming in with explosive combinations.

Ali's shoe shine combos are worthless. Always were.

This goes to show how bad the Heavyweight division is.....

People are actually trying to compare Eddie Chambers to Ali........

Wlad is a good champion no doubt, Vitali has never been champ and the reason he hasn't struggled much since a fat, past prime, unmotivated Lennox is because he hasn't fought anyone as near as good as him, he fought one decent HW after that, who took the fight on a weeks notice (if I'm not mistaken) and gave him problems and then he outright quit.

Klitschko nuthuggers are unbelievable they actually believe that the Klitschko's are the greatest heavyweights of all time. I can't wait until Haye puts Wlad on his ass, then we'll see how highly they rate them.

He was easily beating Byrd, no way Byrd won more than two rounds, "problems" sure......

Him quitting had nothing to do with Byrd at all it could have been any nameless HW in there, he had a shoulder injury in a fight he was dominating.
