Can you be considered an ATG when these are your 10 best wins?

[Jam Jars]

what on earth would be the point of a rematch?their was nothing controversial about the 1st fight lol
of course his resume is weak compared to other atg's as the only other atg's who is in the division is his brother,and they will never fight for obvious reasons.
vits has been the wbc champ for 9 going on 10 years.how long was nortons title reign lol?
10 years of dominance is better than 1 shining moment no matter how hard you try to make it otherwise lol

WTF you talking about? If Lewis makes a comeback do we add the 10 years he's been retired to his reign?

lol living up to your name there! Another vits nuthugger owned. Doesn't even have a clue about Vitali let alone anybody else but godamn you for a hater if you suggest he's not the greatest fighter since Hercules and bruce lee had a love child

Dude you just lost all credibility.

Does it matter about his so-called reign? And "reign" as what exactly? Playing second fiddle to lil bro fighting bum after bum?

VERY impressive huh? Klitschko fans have become accustomed to look at numbers and say, "well, he defended his title 10 times" forgetting to look at the fact that majority of these "defenses" were against guys the top 10 contenders would get crap for fighting.

Briggs, Charr, Sosnowski, Solis, Johnson, Chisora, Gomez, Arreola, Peter and Adamek.

I count 2 actual top 10 fighters, Peter and Adamek. One could make a case for Arreola, but even that's debatable.

Impressive..

many a great champ has lost to bums.you can only fight who is available

im pretty sure most defenses of guys like charr have been mandatories.gomez won a title eliminator,and johnson and arreola were definiitely top 3 contenders.you can criticize these guys all you want,who is out there to fight

jab man, how do you see immediate rematches between vit-byrd and vit-lennox if they ever happened?

By immediate rematches I'm assuming all fighters have the proper time to prepare and get in shape. In that case I see a much closer fight on the cards against Byrd with Vits most likely getting the nod for landing the harder, more effective punches. The Lewis rematch? I think Lennox crushes him in 5 when he comes in shape and prepared.

What exactly does this fantasy guessing game have to do with Vittles terribly weak resume and 10 best wins though?

The point of a rematch was Vits quit. Sure he was up on the cards, and rightfully so. But when you look a little closer it isn't so clear cut. Vits landed 8 more punches the entire fight and his connect % was almost twice as low as Byrds and lower than it had ever been before or after. On top of that Byrd took the fight on a weeks notice and flew to Germany. Its easy to turn a blind eye to FACTS you don't want to see. But when you look at them objectively the picture changes.
