List of Heavyweight Champions With Most Title Defenses

I guess the Klitschkos don't count because they fight in the modern era. Maybe they should take a time machine to the 30s, 40s or 50s so people would look at them with rose colored glasses and give them the respect they deserve and then some. It's DISGUSTING how people berate the Klitschkos and refuse to give them any credit whatsoever.

 

amen.

30 years from now we will look back and truly recognize them as legends. they are already gonna have their own coin in Ukraine, and also a statue.. While they are still ALIVE. that itself is an incredible achievement

 

the hype -

the reality -

awesome fun, this multiquote button.

 

bit tasteless you using a parkinsons patient as an example. And he still rematched and beat him unlike either Klit.

Essentially, all you've highlighted is that an ageing Parkinsons sufferer outdid both prime Klits.

 

If you remove the WBO, how about removing the later added IBF belt and only include WBA/WBC/Global?

1 - Joe Louis (25)
2 - Muhammad Ali (19)
3 - Larry Holmes (16)
4 - Lennox Lewis (13)
5 - Vitali Klitschko (10)

And what if we only include lineal... :!:

 

Both Wlad and Vitali would be 177-0 (177KO) fighting those 6-0 179lb posers.

Wlad could hold Dempsey with his left and range and tee off on him and Dempsey's stupid @ss would walk into the shots until his face looked like a smashed pumpkin.

 

like he didnt with Brewster, Purrity and Sanders.
like Dempsey actually DID with superheavies weights.

wlouda/coulda/shoulda-mir klitschko.

same old. but never did.

 

Klitschko has not once defended THE title......

 

Good post, but unfortunately water off a duck's back around these parts.

 

yep the WBO title back then was like an IBU title now, practically a regional/national title.

So back then Klit was the Ukrainian champion.

 

Yo.
