Was klitschko dominance down to a lack of other super heavies?

    Are just some of the 'SHW's' operating in K2 era.

    Wilder has only fought one man with his own height & range to date.

    it's ok, we know you are broke & fantasise about owning your own home & having a career.

      A product of size; both Klitschko's were good, but made to look better because the other 'big' HW's that were around were terrible.

      Neither Klitschko deserves to be mentioned in the same bracket as Lennox Lewis. Lewis was far better than both, beat far better opposition and stopped the better brother at his absolute worst.

        Maybe there's an element of that but Wlad had easily beaten tall fighters like Pulev.

        Wlad lost to Fury basically because stylistically Fury would have been a nightmare for him at any point in his career. That style and size would have always given Wlad major problems, especially at the age of 40.

        Wlad is/was a very good boxer. People assume Vitali was better because he seemed a bit tougher and had a fight with Lewis but i always felt Wlad was better and beat better opposition, plenty of tall fighters too.

          The lack of talent was the main thing, rather than size.

          Not that Wlad wasnt great, but his competition was horrible for the most part. Even his best opponents have only a few top 10 wins to rub between them.

          Vitali's comp was even worse, even by this era's standards.

              Some of the "super heavies" people are listing are just fat fcuks who'd be 215 in an earlier era. Others are just uncoordinated stiffs. Ray Austin? Seriously?

                These are all super heavies and he has fought more guys that are "super heavies" time is catching up to him he is in his 40's and he has had a very long career in the pros don't try to paint it any other way.

                Wladimir in his late 20's early 30's would have absolutely annihilated Dyson Fury.

                20 years in the pro game
                and
                God knows how many years he has in the amateurs

                  What a horrible list of heavyweights.

                    More to do with lack of skill than lack of size. Bryant Jennings was small and still made Wlad look bad. Most of Wlad's worst performances were against smaller fighters. He made mincemeat of the big, slow guys.

                    Heavyweight was really awful throughout the 2000s, even before the Klitschko dominance began. John Ruiz was a legit contender and beltholder for much of the decade. The division only just started rounding back into shape in the past 3 years or so.
