    i see your point, but you have to remember that you can't always transfer things like that.

    Ali got knocked silly by a 172lb henry cooper who had weights in his boots on the scales, how on earth would he handle power from the likes of liston, shavers, foreman, frazier!

    i'm not by any stretch comparing the too, just saying don't read too much into knockdowns like that, Fury wasn't hurt at all his legs were fine etc, we can't pass judgements yet.

      I see your point and I agree but it just worries me when a guy that will of never been hit with any way near the power Wlad possess's gets into the ring with them, so many of Wlads fights are won in my opinion because they 1.) don't anticipate how fast his hands will be (especially the jab) which we saw in the Haye fight 2.) They do not expect him to hit as hard as he hits and therefore when they get hit by the first right, they don't fancy it anymore and go into a more defensive shell, I can see Fury and Price both doing this kind of thing unless they get in the ring and beat a serious puncher but the problem is there aren't many in the division that would fight them so its hard to prepare.

        yeah it's a problem

        Helenius and Price are probably the 2 best guys to spar for a klitschko fight but they themselves are contenders so it wouldnt happen

          Yeah in the current HW division the problem is contenders very rarely fight each other, thats why to me it was a breath of fresh air to see Derek Chisora fighting a few contenders which is why I have much respect for him although he isn't the best boxer in the world. I think maybe if one of the contenders like Price/Fury managed to get a fight with Povetkin for the regular title, and then beat him, defended the title once or twice, then dropped it to fight Wlad, they would possibly be well prepared to fight him

            Yesterday, Bonte named several possibilities:

            Mariusz Wach (27-0, 15 KOs)
            Denis Boytsov (31-0, 25 KOs)
            Odlanier Solis (18-1, 12 KOs)
            Bermain Stiverne (22-1-1, 20 KOs)
            Alexander Ustinov (27-0, 21 KOs)

            Today, Wlad named three people he wants to fight:

            Seth Mitchell
            Tyson Fury
            Mariusz Wach

            He says he doesn't want to fight someone he's already beaten, he wants new opponents.

              I would like to see Wach, Stiverne and Ustinov (especially Stiverne). Mitchell and Fury need more experience but I'd still like to see them.

                Stiverne would be an okay choice, and seeing Wlad fight someone bigger than himself like Wach or Ustinov would be interesting.

                  Wlad definitely needs to knock out someone who is bigger than him to silence the "Klitschko is size and only that" sayers.

                    The IBF tournament is interesting, but Wlad have 4 interesting opponents out for his third fight this year...
                    Boystov? Haye begin to make sense...
