No announcement yet.
Klitschkos would be just as dominating in the 60s and 70s

People have said this for many years now. It's true, just very unpopular.
It's difficult for boxing fans to get their head around it, but the 1-2 Vitali-Wladimir would be too much for probably any champ/contender that I can think of in the 60's and 70's. They might make it by one of the bros, if there was a freak thing (torn rotator, panic attack, etc), or if Foreman got one of them in trouble early, etc. But for the most part, it would be domination by them.
I mean, I love Joe Frazier, but if you thought his head was swollen after the Ali fights... well, he'd be unrecognizable...

Only if a guy like Earnie Shavers got a little lucky could Wlad and Vitali get beaten. Wlad more likely.

They would be good fighters in the 70s but no way they would dominate. IMO they could be A level guys but still would lose to Larry Holmes, Ali, Foreman and Frazier. They would be on Ken Norton's level.
