i would favor them to beat him yet if Max hit either brother on the chin it would be lights out for them

Fast forward to 9:52. Baer hits Wlad with that right and Wlad spends the next month in a coma. Baer also shows a superior jab in this fight.

Problem is that very very early on in his career, with the death of Frankie Campbell, he just gave up. He didn't strive to be excellent or even take the sport seriously anymore. He lost most of the horrifying power he had early on after that and was afraid to go all out then on, but still terrified and dominated a era. He was probably the most terrifying of all of the champions, Liston being a far off second. Baer literally killed 2 people, and sealed Ernie Shaff's fate with one right hand.
I would say that between him and Shavers, their was noone that could punch at that level. Even Foreman, Tua, and Marciano(Believed to hit harder than Foreman, and probably did shot for shot)...It was just a whole other monster
I cannot favor Baer against either Klitschko. I do not think either one can land the blows to KO him. I see a very one sided 12 round decision, Baer just wouldn't care. He could take either one out with one shot even though he lacked the shot he had early on.
Early on their are only writings and records of Baer. He was said to be hyper aggressive, possessing a amazing number of first round knockouts, legendarily powerful, and just in general a ****ing terror. I can see this version of Baer taking out anyone in history potentially.
Baer's hands were broken in the Louis fight and his right arm had been numbed by Novocaine to stop the pain. He was still more than a handful and almost KOed Louis at the end of the 2nd and in the first rounds, and lifted both of his feet off of the ground with a left to the body. God knows what he would have done to Louis if his hands weren't busted and his right arm numbed. And still yet, this was a man that just didn't care.
