    I don't know if you get what I mean.
    An example: People always rate Vitali as a H2H-monster who could give every ATG his fits. But still many people don't see him as an ATG. A lacking resume, no signature win, lost two of his biggest fights, arguably not even the best heavyweight of his time, with his very succesfull brother, who has most of the major titles.
    Are there any other examples like that?

    Vitali is a good one.. Huge H2H threat, low ranking

    I think that Holyfield would lose to many other highly praised HWs, but he is (should be) one of the highest rated..
