      You're dreaming.. delirium., V Klitschko was one of the fiercest hunting boxer I've ever seen, and I've seen literally thousands. A killer. He just would NOT be beaten. And W Klitschko was a picture perfect boxer with ALL the punches, and so powerful that even his left jab was enough to KD an opponent.

        - - Gibs never dominated their divisions in their eras. The Ks the only ones to do that in history.

          One man's opinion.

          Another man's opinion: Mike Gibbons losses have more prestige than the Brothers K's wins.

            The forum is split on the Klits and Gibbons. The sharp and knowledgeable people seem to favor the Gibbons. Whereas those not doing so well in life, maybe dropouts, tout the big Klits, forgetting they semi-ruled an extraordinarily weak era, and even denying it.

            In the meantime they do not notice the Gibbons were often fighting men like Greb and Chuck Wiggins, Mike O'Dowd and George Chip, Soldier Bartfield, Ted kid Lewis and Al McCoy, all multiple times. Those are just Mike's opponents!

            Mike Gibbons only beat Harry Greb. We should all know that is big shakes.

            And the best win of the Klit bros combined? Ahem! Don't embarrass yourself.

              Callum and Liam the most talented of the four. Stephan already retired years ago, as did Paul.

                - - I greatly respect the Gibbons bros in boxing, but the Ks dominated, nay neutered Western Heavyweight boxing and moved the center of the division to Germany for a decade.

                I can't think of any fighter in any division that was able to pull off such a Geographical stunt. AJ sorta comes close by making the Saudis the new Mecca of heavyweight boxing, but I'm not sure how much that will last given the instability of today's peoples and their leaders.

                  The La Motta brothers, not the best obviously. Joey was not the best but had a good record. Jake obviously was a world champ.

                  Klitschko brothers are at the top though.

                    What about the the three DiMaggio Brothers, Vince, Dominic, and . . . damn I forgot the middle brother's name, isn't that typical? He played outfield for the Yankees for a while.

                      - - The Joe brothers the best set of centerfielders in history, but they didn't dominate an era like only boxing can do.
