    Wladimir is the second longest reigning heavyweight champion of all time and is technically superior to Vitali, overall the better boxer.

    So yes that is why Wladimir is ahead of Vitali.

        I guess it's a subjective (I think this would happen IF they fought) thing versus an who ACTUALLY achieved the most thing

          Ibeauchi,
          Briggs, Donald, Sanders, Byrd, only the top six or so are legit the rest just mush together and call them the scrap heap
          Oh ****...I forgot about Ike Ibeabuchi, he was supposed to be the "next best thing" the one to dominate the HW ranks...

          Then boom, hard crime - hard time.

            This is really my personal list, and I would understand that some of you disagree, it's only based on skills :

            1- Vitali Klitschko
            2- Wladimir Klitschko
            - Lennox Lewis ( don't know which one to choose)
            4- Evander Holyfield
            5- David Haye ( I think that prime Haye beats prime Holyfield though)


            In no particular order :

            - Alexander Povetkin
            - Chris Arreola
            - Kubrat Pulev
            - Odlanier Solis ( very underrated in my opinion)
            - Chris Byrd/Gomez/Chagaev ( all three are very good southpaws, especially Gomez is extremely underrated)

              Good lists. The only HW I rank above Vitali and Wladimir is Lennox. But Lennox retired and ducked the Bros badly folks.

                What a pile of crap. reminds me of Larry Holmes' era, but at least Holmes didn't have a bro to help him out.

                Ruiz is probably a top 10 heavyweight. Crap.

                  Okay my list would be -
                  1. Lennox Lewis
                  2. Wladimir Klitschko
                  3. Vitali Klitschko
                  4. Lamon Brewster
                  5. Kubrat Pulev
                  6. Tony Thompson
                  7. Alexander Povetkin
                  8. John Ruiz
                  9. Evander Holyfield
                  10. Nikolai Valuev


                  That is how my list would go, baring in mind the list is from 2000 onwards hence why Holyfield isn't scored higher up in the field of ranking.
                  Where's Chris Byrd? Might as well throw Tyson in there, too. Even though he was in decline, he'd beat a couple of guys on your list.
