This thread is to give love to Vitali who I think is inarguably a top 3 HW of all time. 39 years old, still HW champ, not losing rounds, beating everyone he faces down. Active, never has ended a fight losing, never been knocked down, only has been stopped by injuries. Without injuries he would easily in my mind be the GOAT. with the injuries you have Lewis and Wlad up there making claims. Wlad might finish his career with 70 wins for all we know. He doesnt appear to be beatable right now. But as it stands lets give it up for Vitali Klitschko. A truly great fighter, a great man out of the ring, he doesnt get enough love. Still hasnt been in the ring top 10 p4p, which is a joke imo. He hasnt lost since Lewis and Lewis refused a rematch, what can he do?

I look forward to him destroying Briggs and adding to his amazing legacy.

I completely agree

My ATG HW list:
1. Peter McNeely
2. Two Ton Golenta
3 Vitali K

.
.
100 Muhammad Ali

I say he is top 1.

vitali obviously used steroids when he was gone for 4 years, i mean cmon he came back from a major back injury like nothing now....he lost to the 2 best fighters he faced...saying he beat chris bird is like saying liston never lost to ali since they were tied on the scorecards....he is top 3 heavyweight of 2000 decade....his opponents are nothing to speak of...

How does retiring via a shoulder injury that required an operation, equal loosing/tying to someone on the cards? Especially since Vitaly was up on all of the cards against Byrd.

Vitali is a great fighter. A shame that he'll never be heavyweight champion though.

He should have kept fighting.That would have shown how much heart he has.
