Where would you rank Vitali Klitschko among the ATG heavyweights?

[The_Demon]

Probably closer to 90%.

That's because 90% of people believe whatever the man on TV (Kellerman, Atlas, Bernstein) tells them.

Throughout history, 90% of people have been peasants who couldn't think for themselves.

The division is about the same as it always was. Tony Galento was worse than Arreola.

it really isnt,but thats your opinion

im not saying vitali wouldnt beat some of the great heavyweights though,i think he would have as good a chance as anyone

[slimshandy69]

the best ever imo...you laugh but the only way to beat him is to get a lucky punch to cut his eye or for him to pull out injured...

If haye gets the balls to fight him...and when vitali destroys him you have to have him the best of ALL time...

The best of all time, if he beats Haye?

Yes because beating a converted cruiserweight who was KOed by a 40 year old Carl Thompson is career defining stuff.

Vitali simply hasn't fought the level of opponents required to be higher than top 25, its not his fault. For me the bigest problem with the HW division since Lewis retired is the lack of GOOD HW fights. Its not just the fact the fighters arn't very good, they're boring too.

For me the HW division in the 90s was one of the best eras for the division and was always going to be hard to follow that but this era has been the poorest in my life time.

Is Vitali Klitschko one of the best heavyweights ever?

Where does he rank?

[Heru]

If it's based on resume and accomplishments than he's top 35, if you factor in everything else, he's top 30 or 25.

His resume is extremely weak compared to the top 10 GHOAT, laughable when it's the top 5.
