    Marquez bros.

    The Ruelas bros were ok. They were brawlers and I think both became champs at some point in their careers.

        Larry Holmes 1 was Mike SPinks best opponent. I never said he beat Tyson but I don't think Tyson was better than Holmes, even though Tyson Ko'd him when he was shot.

        Find one win either Klit has that compares in any way to Ali or Holmes. I'm sorry but KO'ing 95% of rotten crappy opponents is not impressive.

        The basic argument is the Klits have destoyed a great percentage of low quality opponents so they are the best brothers. I'll take the guys who have a lower KO rate but more quality wins.
        Mike Tyson was Michaels best opponent, Prime Tyson > the version of Holmes Michael fought, are you really only taking L. Spinks 1 half decent win into account and ignoring the rest of his poor career when ranking him ?.
        The Klit's have beaten all ranked opponents out there (At least Wlad has) and although they both have a few embarrassing losses both of their careers / resumes tower over Leon's, it shouldn't even be debatable

        Wlad has beat the best opponent he faced in Chris Byrd.

        Skills / Talent: Michael - Vitali - Wlad ----------------- Leon
        Resume: Michael - Wlad - Vitali ----------------- Leon

        As said before Leon drags the Spinks brothers down so much, the fact you'd try and argue otherwise is just silly.

        Bit off topic but why did you ignore Jab ranking Klits above Spinks ?.

          What about the Tiozzo brothers?
          Christophe Tiozzo was WBA champ in 1990-1991, and Fabrice Tiozzo was WBA and WBC champ in 1995-1997, 1997-2000, 2004-2006.
          Not bad.

              I have to go with the Marquez bros followed by the Spinks bros and then the klits. How i wish we could see a prime michael spinks vs one of the klits, spinks was a rare talent, great great fighter.

                I knew the Marquez brothers would be picked but it's crap. Rafael and Juan were the best at one time but Wlad and Vitali are by far the best now. Rafael has faced 5 fighters in 4 years and lost to 3 of them. Marquez was beaten by Floyd and Pac in his last 5.

                      Currently the Klitschkos because Vitali is better than Rafael. Wlad and JMM are either equal or JMM is slightly better.
