Look let's be realistic here. Wlad/Vitali/Lewis would dominate any era of HW boxing

    It doesn't take a rocket scientist to realize those guys would be great in any era they fought in.

    To say otherwise is delusional. That's not saying they'd all go 90-0 no matter where you dropped them in history, but they'd be forces to reckoned with.

    Vitali isn't even great in this era. How is he dominating when he isnt even the #1 HW? SMH @ him coattaling his brother to a free pass.

    He has 9 title defenses and has dominated every opponent in his comeback and is about to have 10 defenses later this year. He also dominated and made a guy quit that Wlad had issues with.

    To say Vitali and his Iron Chin are not dominate is delusional. Wlad has 14 defenses so Vitali isn't that far behind him. The guy is 41 for christ sakes and beating up people 10 years younger than him. I also have no doubt he would beat Wlad Head 2 Head.

    **** happens. You can't win them all. He was doing just fine in those 2 losses it isn't like he was getting destroyed. It is odd how Vitali is 41 and his average oponents age is in the low 30's yet a guy like Haye is 32 and his average opponents age is like 38ish. And you are saying Vitali hasn't beat anyone? :rofl:patsch

    Who has anyone beat for that matter? He is willing to fight young contenders something that other Heavyweights are not willing to do.

    If you want to consider yourself great you should:

    a. dominate your division in your era and / or

    b. beat great opponents

    He's done neither.
