Hard to agree substantively with Breadman when he added Klitschko to Lewis's sculp count. The fight was stopped by a doctor, just like Fury-Wallin fight could have been stopped for the same reason, it wouldn't mean that Wallin is better than Fury.

Great point! I was never a huge Fury guy based on his mostly boring style. The Klitschko fight should be used as a cure for insomnia. With that being said, Fury does have "something" about him that makes him special. For a man that large he has good defense and a technically unorthodox style that works. His mental issues certainly derailed his career but he has come back strong. If he beats Wilder again then he would have an opportunity to unify. Pretty amazing for where he was a few years ago!Originally posted by ShoulderRoll View PostI cringe at reader who says he doesn't see anything special in Tyson Fury.
He just whipped Deontay Wilder's ass. How do you think he managed to do that, just dumb luck?
Some of these Wilder fans are embarrassing. And I say that as someone who was pulling for Wilder.Comment

Lewis too low on the list and Holmes too high.
Lewis beat all the man he faced in a ring.
Hold wins over Bowe, Big bro Klit, Holyfield, Tyson. So 2 man on Bread's list. I don't care if Tyson was old because they clearly ducked him in his prime.
I think Lewis was the most dominant HW after Ali and Louis.
I would put Marciano higher too.
Marciano beat 3 all times greats in Moore, Charles and Walcott, like Bread pointed, they weren't shot.
He retired undefeated.
Holmes beat "shot" all time greats in Norton and Ali.
Then his title defenses was a run in a weak Era ala Wlad Klitschko.
Then it is just my opinion.
Funny thing is always agree with Bread except when it comes to HW, I never agree with him lol
Dempsey should be on the listComment

You have been pretty fair and showed sportmanship since the wilder loss, wich is pretty rare on this forumComment

Fury is much better than Wilder, a simple fact. Give him credit and stop blaming a suit or Breland.Comment

Joyce demolishes dubois. And the black light heavyweight is buatsi, arguably best prospect in the sport right now.Comment

I wonder if we will ever have a heavyweight champion again who can dominate and is around 6'3. Or, the skysc****rs remain the kings?Comment

Mike Tyson was 5'11” in an era where 6'3" was the norm.
Somebody of Ruiz's height (officially 6"2" but shorter in reality), with Ruiz's ability, Ortiz's counter punching, AJ’s athleticism and training mentality and Fury’s willpower would dominate, add Wilders big punch and he would be unstoppable.
Henry Cooper fought as a heavyweight at just 14.5 stone (203lb) which I thought would never be repeated, but Wilder has fought at just a few pounds more.
There will always be some freak of nature who will come along and rewrite the rulebook (6'8" was way to tall to be a successful sprinter until Usain Bolt came along).Comment

Daily Bread Mailbag is the best, If you take what you want to learn
I always take a good section in boxing class by Bread every Saturday, especially the part of history. He give me motivation to learn by myself.
