Whatever Brewster and Purrity can do,Joe could do better.
Joe was a bob and weave fighter...that style is fatal for guys that lean straight back like Vlad.
Brewster was a very good champion boxer, did everything better than Frazier and was monstrously more powerful with an iron chin. Frazier would never hurt him either.
Brewster would knock Joe out with 1 good punch.

You probably don't know about Foremans chin if you don't think great chins didn't exist in Fraziers days. steel in his jaw? He fought no besides Wlad to prove it, when he did step up he got KO'd eg Rahman and feather fist Vitali.
He took 12 rounds of bombs from Tommy Morrison!
Young Foreman did not have as good a chin though!
You have no idea! Wlad never beat Puritty, Vitali did!
You obviously have never seen any Puritty fights either.
If you have only seen olden days fights then you have never seen what a hard punch or a solid chin looks like. Watch some, THEN try telling me than Puritty or Brewster never had iron chins!

yes Without the boy wonder Batman is lacking and without the genius of th clinch in a sinch Vlad would be.......just another marvel.
He was spotted by Steward in these very early days and already declared..
To have the best right hand he had ever seen in boxing.
To be the heir apparent to the HW throne
Steward knew what he was looking at. You know **** all!
I wish I had a demographic on you guys. You must be 60 odd and lived through Soviet oppression not to see that like or hate this guy he would have levelled any of your favourites with mostly a single punch!

Originally posted by Elroy1 View PostYoung Clay/Ali still had no reflexes at all and was still hit by even the slowest of punches as soon as he was in range.
In many of his so called prime fights, he was pasted often enough by some of the lightest, shortest and most bummy boxers ever assembled.
"Prime" Ali never fought a decent opponent.
"Prime" Ali who could run all night and was very fast (he WAS fast) barely weighed 200lbs and was inexperienced. He also had zero experience against very hard punchers or guys much over 200 lbs.

Originally posted by Elroy1 View PostWladimir has fought the most diverse range of styles of opponents of all time and conquered every one of them.
His "style" is to completely shut down the style of the opponent by punishing every move they make until they are paralysed and can't move anymore, charmed like a rattlesnake, ready to be knocked out.
Foreman HAD no style. He just swung for the hills. That only works if your opponents are unskilled and weak.
Frazier had no style. He just came forward and tried to maul. That only works if your opponents are unskilled and weak.
Ali fought every style and he destroyed them all.

Originally posted by Elroy1 View PostI give experienced, 260lb George LESS punchers chance than I do young George against Wladimri (because he was even slower than young Geroge and too slow to land anything on him) BUT I give old George better chances to SURVIVE against Wladimir because he fought smarter, didn't gas and was more defensive. He was also extremely strength trained in the 90's and Wladimir would not be able to successfully lean on him. Geroge would shove him off as he did Morrison! Old George was stronger than young. Fact.
