I think most people have Wlad at least in the top 25.
And only the haters and racists have him below the top 50.Comment

@carnivore.....
I honestly have Vitali rated higher than Wlad. Also I'm a huge Vitali fan, but I can't understand why he didn't fight Dimitrenko.... especially since he is available, mentioned he wanted the fight in December, and is a fellow Ukrainian.
That fight is much better than Vitali's next fight and would be huge if they hailed it Germany. Do you have any idea why that fight didn't happen?Comment

Size is nothing without athleticism. Watch Chagaev vs. Valuev.
The Klitschkos are the most athletic big men in the history of boxing. Compare them to Marcellus Brown, Michael Grant, Tye Fields, Julius Long, Lance Whitaker, Ray Austin, Jameel McCline, etc.Comment

This win should enhance Wlad's legacy.
Chambers is in his prime, 35-1, and has never been down in a fight. The size difference was greater between Lennox Lewis and Mike Tyson:
Lewis: about 6'5.5", reach 84", arm length 29.5"
Wlad: just under 6'6", reach 81", arm length 26"
Chambers: 6'1", reach 75"
Tyson: 5'11", reach 71"
Tyson was shot and he'd been stopped before, Chambers is at his peak and has never been down.Comment

You know, if Dimitrenko had just been given a warm-up fight or two by Universum, Vitali would have fought him instead of Sosnowski. But coming off the loss to Chambers, it wouldn't look good.@carnivore.....

Sosnowski is the European heavyweight champion. Dimitrenko might have had that title, except his promoter Kohl has kept him inactive.Comment
