Has anyone ever done more long term damage to boxing than Wladimir Klitshcko?

Are you including me in that statement?
And whether or not it will be interesting again is really besides the point. They are better than everyone else. It's not their fault that competition is scarce.Comment

Rigo stank out the joint against Donaire, but when someone mentioned it on this site, the general reaction was something like "shut up, you don't know sht about boxing! True boxing fans appreciate his masterful performance". If you are a "true boxing fan" (whatever that means), appreciate Klitschko, too.
Btw, if you are gonna complain about his "mismatchmaking", then first name just one fighter that he has ever ducked (and no, Vitali doesn't count).Comment

he is on for having the most title defences, he has one of the highest ko rations ever, hes on for unifying the division, hes on having one of the highest amount of kncokouts ever and hes one a gold medal.
If that's not the best of all time I do not know what is.Comment

Floyd...and his fan base. A breed of people that worship the fighter and not the fights. At least the Klitshckos will take on all challengers and are busy the entire fight. I don't hear people crying how boring Holmes was. Same style!Comment

Lol at basing the greates of all times on facts. When your best win is Ibragimov then you have no right to call yourself the greatest. And neither should you.Last edited by LacedUp; 07-14-2013, 12:25 PM.Comment

Guess we should bring back Byrd,Ruiz,Peter,Valuev.
They sure had the Heavyweight division on fire back in the day.
It is sad though how the Heavyweight Champ has lost so much significance in America, it used to be one of the biggest things in sports. Now nobody gives a shit because the guys ain't American or exciting.Comment

Here is the facts on Wlad
He is a great champ, not the best of all-time but def top 20 heavy of all time...
Yes the heavy division will be more interesting when he is gone, but thats becasue nobody has any idea who would be champ if klits werent around,,,
Haye,povetkin, arreola, stiverne, fury, etc All the rest of the heavy are beatable, It would be a competitive divsion with average talent...Comment
