    Pretty sure in the 10 years active since the Hide fight that Vits was 6-2 against top 10 ranked fighters by the Ring. During that time he missed 25 ring ranked fighters if memory serves. I did a thread on this a long time ago. His brother is the one who cleaned out the division. While Vits may have been the tougher brother, he wasn't nearly as accomplished against top 10 fighters.
    Ring ranked fighters Vitali beat are;
    Arreola no7
    Gomez no 9
    Peter no 2
    Sanders no3
    Johnson no8
    Adamek no7

    What does challengers refusing to fight Wlad for one reason or another ,have to do with Vitali not fighting them?

    ps K2 ,the Klits promotional group wanted 2 fight options on Haye and the right to select his opponents should he beat Vitali.

    No prizes for guessing who the two opponents would have been.
    We are asked to believe all the challengers Vitali "missed", turned down chances to win his WBC title.
    Yeah sure.
    The only tag team is on here! lol

        Chisora. But he gave Lewis an absolute ass-kicking and only a lucky cut got Lewis the win, and of course, Lewis ran a marathon away from the rematch. Cash in

          What we've established is that you have no clue what you're talking g about and will go to any lengths, including straight up lying, to try and appear right. You're a joke.

            Pulev
            Fury
            Last but not least.....Wlad.

            Vitaly missed 30 Ring ranked top ten heavyweights during his years active and ranked in the top 10 himself. He never tried to avenge his humiliating quit job against Byrd even though they were closely ranked for years....even after claiming he would get his title back.

            Vits was a tough guy, but boxing has had lots of tough guys. He was certainly no great.

              Sanders gave him his toughest fight that he won. Sanders was a specimen of an athlete. One of the best straight left hands in history. He also went for the ko and took his chances. He was impressive when he tried his best.
              I think Vitali gives anyone trouble. He had the size and a style that worked for him. He didn’t load up but instead put steady pressure on his opponents. That takes its toll from a 6.7” 255lb lean machine. He also had a good chin. His greatest advantage over his brother. He avoided a lot of punches just by leaving back with good reflexes. He retired Lennox. Lennox split open his eye something awful looking. He was still fighting strong though. He was winning early but it was getting closer at the time of the stoppage. Lennox is no joke. I’d love to have seen Vitali versus all the all time greats. He’s a top HW for me more on my perception of his ability than his career.

                Vitali would give anyone trouble,great chin, decent power,excellent judgement of distance,and he knew how to fight to his strengths.

                  His resume is distinctly underwhelming.
                  . Far too many names missing from it,far too many defences against undeserving, unranked journeymen.

                  His standing could have been so much higher but ultimately he didn't fight those names,so it isnt!

                    Im guessing his point is that the top 10 fighters he didnt fight were busy getting pasted up by Wlad. Like you say...there is no tag team division...thus the reason the brothers didnt fight them at the same time.

                      My guess is that it might yet be Vladimir *****. ***** is a Judo and Sambo master according to Dr. Google. If they meet face to face...it might be an all time great throwdown.
