Wladimir "Glass Chin" Klitschko: Longest reign in HW history without being floored.

Yes, I'd say Bruno is about the level of a Morrison, Briggs or Liakovich level fighter in terms of ATG status.

 

Double quoted for sheer stupidity & British revisionist boxing history. :yep :rofl

 

Very true. All those ***gots at ESPN were and never will be close to Wlads level. So there is a good amount of hatin there

 

......and Lennox Lewis. Y'know all my American Boxing friends used to bash "the glass jawed Brit" even while I was defending him. I knew someday LL would get his due. Unfortunately it came after his retirement.

 

Bruno wasnt an ATG by any means, but still better than anyone Wlad ever fought.

 

Holyfield would get his ass kicked by either brother. He's too brave for his own good.

Did you really post Bowe? Hahahaha

The same Bowe that got his ass kicked twice by Golota? :rofl

Lewis maybe, Foreman maybe, Ali maybe or even probably but Frazier? Get the **** outta here dreamer............ atsch

 

Chris Byrd ranks much higher on any serious list & Wlad destroyed him TWICE. Wlad has also unified almost all the belts, something Bruno didn't come close to doing.

 

The guy asked me for Tyson's best wins, and Bruno is one of them. What's '******ed' about that?

 

Come on son, Adamek couldn't carry Spink's jockstrap - at any weight.

 

Carl would be ashamed of fans like you. What a gibberish.

 

That's impossible to say until all of Wlad's current opponents retire and stay retired for five years or more.

Are you aware that Evander Holyfield isn't officially a HOFer yet? Why? Because he's still active, or at least was until very recently. The closest he'll be eligible will be in late 2017.

Of course he'll get in, as will Toney, both of whom were beaten by opponents that were then beaten by Wlad in Ibragimov and Peter, for what that's worth.

As for the others, I think Chris Byrd's in with a very good shot. Far lesser fighters have got in for less. Adamek and Haye might get in depending on what they do from here on out. Bit of a long shot though, and you'd likely have to wait a long time to find out.

But I can't predict the future. You can't either. No one can.

The question you ask is literally unanswerable at this present moment in time, and therefore an unfair measure against which to gauge the champion.

 

Yes, and on esb rocked/stunned also means floored, so you can't deny that the threadstarter is wrong and that Wladimir has indeed been floored a few times during his reign.

Not my personal opinion or anything.

 

Spot on. Agree with you as usual.

One of the finest British posters here.

 

Shows how far today's top Heavyweight contenders have devolved. Devolved to such an extent that they're even worse than the journeymen/fringe contenders from the 90's, who a prime Wlad, even with his 150+ amateur fight background & Olympic Gold medal, could barely even compete with.

Also, might be important to note that only half of Wlad's last 10 fights have been against top 10 world rated Heavyweights.
