Only 2 active heavyweights are Hall of famers imo

[SirTomJones]

Vitali and Wlad will both be in the HOF.

Those two wins happened to be a against HOF Heavyweight in his prime which helps a little.

Plus, his little title defences have more to do with the fact he couldn't get a title shot for a long time.

His resume pre Title reign is much better or more vast then it is post.

Similar kind of thing to Jack Johnson.

he probably beat a dozen or so current and former top 10 contenders on the way to beating patterson.

they kept floyd away from liston for a while.

Vitali and Wlad will both be in the HOF.

Vitali gets in based on what????

[kadyo's]

I think the guerrillas are responsible for hanging Yamashita.

Probably kadyo knows who takes the credit of hanging yamashita.

LMAO @ the thai hooker

An old bicolano told me a story about how they hanged the tiger of malaya.

[kadyo's]

Off topic, I think vitali ranks higher than wlad but that's just me.

[Medved]

Vitali gets in based on what????

Highest KO % In HW History
Losing less than 10 rounds in his entire career.
Never knocked down.
Never losing a fight legitly.

is that not good enough for you? Does he need to go back to 1940's and knock some iron mill workers out who fought at 180 for him to be good?

[peyk-peyk]

An old bicolano told me a story about how they hanged the tiger of malaya.

See, i knew the guerrillas hanged the basterd.

[Left Hook Tua]

He was hanged by Bicolano freedom fighters in Baguio.

Grasshopper Carradine hanged himself by his dick.

ehhh.....

he was hanged in philippines but he went to trial first by the americans.

Wlad for sure is in and I think Vitali will get in as well. Right now I'd say Vitali is borderline and despite the size advantage Adamek is a decent name on the resume. Vitali still has a few more fights left so if he takes care of those opponents and they aren't straight up bums he should secure his spot. Adamek clearly is not a hall of famer. When you say a dudes name, if they are hall worthy you really don't have to debate it too much. Belts really don't mean anything in the sport any longer, weight classes really don't either unless it's a huge step up in classes.

Ever heard of whitewashing for international community?
