Didn't Mike Tyson fight a guy named Donovan Razor Ruddock once upon a time? I think a prime Ruddock now would have an excellent chance of putting the boots to the Klitschkos.

Vitali was lambasted for not fighting on despite an injury against Chris Byrd, but I think he more than answered his critics with his gutsy peformance against Lennox Lewis.

He's the best Heavyweight in the world today, bar none. He's in the same category as a Lennox Lewis. Lennox Lewis and Wlad Klitschko are technical fighters with big punches. Both men suffered knockout defeats to underwhelming competition and as a result, both became technical fighters. A fast puncher like a Joe Louis may have to get off the canvas against either man, but he undoubtedly would. Once he did, his hand speed and power would stop either man. Ali and Holmes would have to outbox either man over 15 rounds unless Klitschko or Lewis ran out of gas. The size of either man could enable them to upset a lot of fighters who many consider better than them. I think Wlad Klitschko has come full circle.

The difference being, had they fought at this particular time Mike Tyson would have added them to his list of victims. A prime Holyfield would have as well.

I think old Larry Holmes would given the younger Wlad a tough time, too. This was an interesting look at the Klits brothers. I think old Larry Holmes would given the younger Wlad a tough time, too.
