Vitali should be ranked way higher. He would never get "outskilled" or "outgutted" in a fantasy fight. That's bullshit.
Vitali beats any HW from any era.
- There is no blueprint to beat him.
- He is unbeatable.
- He has dominated every opponent he has ever faced.
- Has never been behind on the scorecards.
- Has great defense and an iron chin, never been down.
- 38 KOs in 41 wins, greatest heavyweight champ KO% of all time.
- Only man ever to be world heavyweight champ in boxing and kickboxing.
Vitali is almost 40 now, came back after a 4 year layoff and is still dominating the heavyweight division. He hasn't lost a single round in his comeback.

Vitali Klitschko vs Lennox Lewis
THE TRUTH
Vitali took the fight on just 10 days notice.
Vitali was clearly winning the fight 4-2 on all 3 scorecards at the time of the controversial doctor stoppage. Lewis was badly hurt and was staggering around the ring like a drunk, he barely survived the 2nd round. Lewis was getting outboxed, outworked, outlanded and was hurt several times in the fight.
punches landed
Vitali 156
Lewis 102
Lewis was exhausted, worn down and hurt from the accumulation of punches and was ready to get KTFO again, he collapsed onto his stool at the end of the 6th round, Vitali was clearly the fresher of the two, he was a man on a mission and would've KO'd Lewis for sure if the fight had continued.
All the fans at Staples Center cheered for Vitali and booed Lewis after the fight.
Lewis promised Vitali a rematch.
Vitali destroyed Kirk Johnson in 2 rounds and called out Lewis again in the post fight interview. The scared Lewis retired shortly after that fight.
Lewis turned down 30 million dollars for a rematch and retired like a coward because he knew he would get destroyed by Vitali.
Vitali dominated Lewis and scared his bitch ass into retirement.
George Foreman: "Vitali was winning the fight. Lewis got lucky. There has to be a rematch!"
Jim Lampley: "A lucky escape for Lewis who was clearly losing the fight"
Even Emanuel Steward was upset and pissed off at Lewis for blatantly ducking a Vitali rematch.
Lewis is scared to death of Vitali.

Believe me when I say this but I really like Joe Frazier but he is overrated. As far as the most overrated? I'm not sure.

If Frazier is overrated for ONLY going 1-4 against Ali and Foreman, with three stop losses, and beating alleged 'cannon fodder'...
...what is a fighter who has gone 0-0 against fighters of that HOF caliber (or even the next level down), fights a whole generation of cannon fodder, and had three stop losses to guys who Ali and Foreman would have used as sparring partners?
Hint: See #4
it is like an engine
