    that list has Vitali & Wlad as current champs - how can they both be the HW Champ at the same time?

    Or are we talking about how long Wlad has held a title for, not how long he has been the HW Champ for?

    That list is all wrong. It says 2006 -present but he didn't win Ring title till 2009 and the WBA till 2011.

    Tyson became lineal champ when he beat Spinks. Wlad when he beat Chaggy. Wlad really has only 7 defences.

    Wlad will not be the Lineal champ until he beats the #2 heavyweight in the world who is currently Vitali Klitschko..

    Says who? The ring? Boxrec? Please, don't tell me you're naïve enough to give them any credence.

    I say Povetkin is #2 and Wlad fights him in October. :deal

    george foreman didn't fight the top 4 heavyweights of the 90's.. he is void.
    As for Grant.. Grant got his career ended by one of the greatest heavyweights of all times in Lewis... what the **** do you want him to do?

    If he followed the career path of Mitchell or Wilder.. he'll be 35-0.
