lennox hands down. he never claimed he was drugged and all sorts of other lame made up excuses when losing a fight, i mean he made some excuses but not to that extent. on top of that he is just a genuine dude, lennox keeps it 100. while wlad is fake as hell, he is not a good actor about it either. finally lennox never forced as many demands on his opponents as wlad does to gain an advantage in the ring, or force them to take less money than they deserve simply to get a shot.

When had Wlad ever fought a top ranked voluntary? Whenever he's not forced to fight someone, he picks guys like Rahman, Mormeck, Wach, Pianeta etc- and builds them up to a ridiculously elevated level as in Mormeck "He's like a mini tyson, only faster". lol.
And his fans slurp it all up.

Is there really a difference?

Me saying Wlad "has a boring style in the later part of his career but is one of the best heavyweights ever and hard to directly compare to the 1970s because the division has grown 40 pounds since then" isn't building him up to an unwarranted level, it's the general consensus.
Apparently that makes me a "Klitschko stan" just like saying Cotto-Martinez would have gone differently if Martinez could walk made me a "Martinez stan". I'm a common sense stan.
Now proceed with whining about Wlad's brand of shoelaces, the decline of his hairstyle, his tendency to wear his trunks too high. Obsessed.Last edited by Fr3$h; 06-20-2014, 06:02 AM.

Instead you say Pianeta would beat George Foreman and Sam Peter would wipe the floor with Joe Frazier - Evolution you know.
Apparently being a fat 245 pounder without skills and feet placed in cement is better than a fit 205 pounder with skill, speed and headmovement.
I actually don't have a problem with Wlad at all, it's the nuthuggers and their ridiculous statements that gives me a problem. Just like yourself, don't act like a measured poster because I've seen the work you do and it's laughable.
