    If he would fight and beat his brother. Then no doubt about it.

        he's good, but to be an ATG you have to be in a great era. Very unfortunate for him, if there were people who challenged him he might actually have been more. He fought in the worst era of heavyweight boxing there has ever been

          Many people consider Larry Holmes an ATG and his era was trashed just as much as Wlad's.

          Wladimir is definitely an ATG.

            he's the best in his generation, i would consider him one. let's wait til he retires first though, maybe when his career is all said and done, it can be better determined.

              Totally agree, think he'd have a strong case for top 15 heavyweight if he beat Vital but he's top 20 now. He won't ever be top 10 though becasue the division is so weak since all the good big men are in the NFL or NBA, too bad Wlad ain't more exciting or he'd create more exciting challengers that'd wanna box.

                I personally despise Larry Holmes, he's a bum and he's scum. Anyone who ever considered Larry Holmes even an exciting fighter is just easy to please. He never beat anyone who wasn't a bum besides old washed up Muhammad Ali.

                  I don't like his style of boxing, but he is an ATG. It's not his fault that the HW division is weak.
