    Vitali but it's not that wide to be honest.

      (I've indicated those who are past age 35 at the time of the fight)

      Haye's best wins:

      Audley Harrison age 39
      John Ruiz age 38
      Dereck Chisora prime
      Monte Barrett age 38
      Jean-Marc Mormeck age 37
      Enzo Maccarinelli prime
      Nicolay Valuev age 37

      Vitali's best wins:

      Sam Peter prime
      Larry Donald age 36
      Herbie Hide prime
      Corrie Sanders age 38
      Chris Arreola prime
      JC Gomez age 35
      Odlanier Solis prime
      Tomasz Adamek prime
      Danny Williams prime
      Dereck Chisora prime
      Albert Sosnowski prime
      Shannon Briggs age 38
      Orlin Norris age 37
      Kirk Johnson prime
      Timo Hoffmann prime
      Although I agree with the list of names the fighters in bold were not in their primes.

      Solis hasn't reached his prime yet and Adamek's prime was at CW. Hide had just left his prime by the time Vitali got him.

        they both have weak resumes, but Haye has the weaker one obviously, no need to make a thread to decide this

        but of course we know it was only meant to diss Haye

          that haye has a comparable resume should speak volumes. Look at vitali's list. Can anyone argue that is HOF worthy?

            Vitali obviously. But neither resume is a truly great or good resume.

            Vitali will get into the HOF, but should he really based on his career and wins??? Not really....

            Wlad has the better resume of the two Klitschko's by far.

            There just weren't all that many good HW's in the Klitschko's era, and Vitali still has a weak resume based on his era. I mean Corrie Sanders, Tomasz Adamek, and Samuel Peter are his best wins??? That's pretty weak. Though their era was weaker than others, Wlad still managed to get Haye, Byrd, and Chagaev on his resume. Those are 3 pretty good and solid wins at those times.

              If you're talking about their whole resume not just HW. It's Haye.

                No.

                Hide is younger than Vitali. And he was just age 27 when they fought in June 1999.

                Hide had 21 fights after he fought Vitali.

                  He was also prime when he lost to Chingangu 1 fight later. LOL

                    That wasn't Hide's next fight, it was 2 1/2 years later.

                    Hide was 30 and Chingangu wasn't a bad fighter. He's age 45 now and still active:

                    And Hide avenged that loss two years later in 2003.

                      Hide isn't even that good. He had a win over an old Tony Tucker. Why is everyone debating over Hide like he was that good??? He beat a no name to win his title, got KO'd in 6 rounds by Bowe, beat an old Tucker for a vacant title, than got beaten by Vitali.

                      Meanwhile, we have people sitting here talking about him being prime or not prime as if he's some sort of really good win or some s**t.
