    Absolutely. Vitali wouldn't beat Ali, Holmes or Foreman but he'd probably beat everyone else so he'd definitely be at least top 10 , IMO.

    Remember that Vitali isn't as one dimensional as Wlad and he's bigger. I see the bomber schooling Wlad but struggling a bit with Vitali's physicality and aggression.

    I favour Lewis at all times.
    Ali I give a tiny edge too.
    Holmes would win, he's getting the respect he deserves now.
    The staredown between a young Foreman and Vitali would be epic.

    he'd be in the top 4 in any era and probably number 1 before the days of ali,foreman etc

    i think both klitschko brothers beat any hw of the black and white era

    jesus , frazier would half kill wlad with his scared style of fighting...if ali cant keep frazier away from him then wlad certainly wont

    frazier by brutal KO
