Does a Haye win vs THIS Klitschko validate him as a ATG HW?

    You're misunderstanding.

    If Haye clears the division out over a couple years, it shows longevity and true dominance. The depth of his resume would therefore be comparable to those of the Klits, however having beaten them he over-takes them and therefore there is more of a case for Haye to be considered an ATG.

      This would be true in any other era other than this HW era........beating a bunch of bums over and over doesn't do much to show dominance IMO....the only two kats worth a hill of beans are the klit bros.

        You can only beat those who have been put infront of you.. This is a poor HW division, but if he completely clears it out and dominates it then he might just get recognised as a low-ranking ATG HW like I said. Definite Hall of Famer though.

              The term ATG seems to get thrown around way way too much on here.
