If Wladimir beats Wilder, Stiverne, Fury, Jennings & Pulev, is he a top 10 ATG HW?

    The funny thing is this guy and many others will mention D and C level fighters at heavyweight as good wins for Wlad, but then discredit others for beating legit top ranked guys in their weight classes that are CLEARLY better fighters.
    I think some yanks here have lost grip on reality. Just because you cannot spell or pronounce a non anglon name, that name might just be the name of a good fighter. Haye and Byrd is NOT Klitschko's two best wins. That would be Chagaev and Povetkin.

      I forgot to add Wilder Annie. After all he just beat Charlie Z.

        he's already top ten ATG heavyweight in my eyes. he will prove his top ten greatness to all the haters and doubters when he beats all those guys convincingly.

        the true #1 p4p is going to prove everyone wrong once again.

          Tony Galento (who was shorter and fatter than Arreola ever was) had 20 losses, yet he floored and nearly KOed Joe Louis.

          Was Louis really the mythological god people make him out to be?

          Max Schmeling, who had lost to Jack Taylor (37-39) and was KOed by a (0-0-1) guy named Max Diekmann, a journeyman named Gipsy Daniels (47 losses!) and Larry Gain, knocked out Joe Louis!

          OHHHHHhhhh!!! Ban Tunney for stating the facts! The boxers of the past were gods, it's sacrilege to bring up those facts

            Alexander ****ing Povetkin.....really??? Chagaev was OK I guess. Haye and Byrd are probably the two best fighters he beat.

            Who says I can't spell or pronounce a name like that??? But I know how roll, I remember a few weeks ago you posted something taking shots at supposedly all black people talk, mocking blacks with stuff like "doe" and what not. It's all good man.

            Povetkin is a sorry ass fighter, take his skills and put him any other weight class, the guy would be a god damn no name bum.

            It's not to say that Wlad sucks, he's a great fighter. He hasn't had the proper opposition to face to make him an ATG or Top 10 HW All Time. He just hasn't. The only other really good or great fighter in his time was Vitali, who he couldn't fight. It's not his fault but it's the way it is.

                31 and 0 speaks for itself. You don't get those kind of numbers fighting bums... it's why Wlad's an ATG. You can't deny the numbers.

                  So you're saying Muhammed Ali's, Joe Frazier's and George Foreman's Olympic gold medals are worthless and meaningless?

                  That's sacrilege!!!

                    Wlad has fought fighters ranked about the same as those Tyson and other past HW's fought. Are you implying they are bums and comparable to Wlders opposition?

                      You dont have a clue.

                      Ok. Where do you rank him if he quit today?
