Dude he was arguably beating Lennox Lewis too but them cut man...killer. The scores were 58-56 and some people actually thought he was winning. He took one of the most vicious uppercuts I've ever seen!
He's a solid heavyweight and has done the best he could against the less then steller Heavyweight division he has been dealt. Your right though he hardly has a "huge name" on his record, but who do you want him to fight? Toney?
I think him and his brother must fight. It would solidify their status as "true" great heavyweights IMO. If only the division was better....
Naps and Soir you can dislike the K-bros because you have a right to your opinion and piss all over what ever comp they beat but they do dominate the best fighters available on the regular and neither have lost in like 6 and 7 years.
Vitali's last 4 opponents had a combined record of 123-2 when he fought those fighters regardless of what you think of them and Vitali in those 4 fight could have at worst lost 2 rounds combined in those fights.

Joe Calzaghe has never lost... EVER but that doesnt stop you guys from criticizing him. Wladimir lost to 3 journeyman and ran like a ***** from two of them. Its not a big mystery how all of their losses occurred in the superior heavyweight era.
Wlad is more of a disgrace than Vitali, because he had the entire division to himself for 4 years and never once beat the number 2 guy to become Lineal or undisputed champion. If Tyson came up in this garbage division it would only take him 8 months to have all the belts.

Well who the heck did Joe ever fight? The only fights you can really give him credit for are Bika, Lacey, Manfredo, and Kessler(who has been getting exposed lately by Ward, and barely got past Froch). So he's not even as great as we all thought he was when Joe beat him. Jones & B-Hop were in their 40's man. And Joe even had a hard time with Hopkins.
Don't compare, there is nothing to compare at all. Joe stayed in England while Vitali & Wlad always try to fight the best fighters available. I'm sorry dude, I just don't see the comparison.

What guys? are you going to say "fat yanks"?
I credit Joe all of the time on here when ppl bash him.
He was a true talent and I wish he would have stuck around longer and fought Johnson, Tarver, and Dawson.
