    What fighters currently still fighting today has got a greater win than tyson fury against klitchko?
    There probably isn't many. If any.

    Name the fighters and who the wins were against?

    Still fighting? None. The only ones that come close IMO are wards super 6 win and that is still far behind klitchko vs fury.

    Maybe. I didnt really watch boxing back then. So I don't no. Was Barrera the man in the division back then? Vlad won every single fight easy for 10 years. Was clearly the number one in his division. Never even looked close to losing. Nobody could lay a glove on him. Was barera that good in his weight class?

    Klitchko was much more the man in his division than Barrera was in his.

    Ward: Kessler, Froch

    Jones:Hopkins, Toney

    Cotto: Mosley

    Pacquiao: Barrera, Marquez, Ledwaba, Cotto, Bradley

    Marquez: Pacquiao

    Toney: Nunn, McCallaum

    Rigo: Donaire

    Hopkins: Trinidad

    Mosley: DLH I, DLH II

    Mayorga: Forrest I, Forrest II

    Gonzalez: Estrada

    There is more, but this is just a start. And I believe these guys are all active fighters.

    Ruiz was never the undisputed champion and neither was toney.

    Well I believe Mosley ranks higher all time than Wlad. And I believe that Mosley was closer to his prime than Wlad was to his.

    And the performance itself was much more impressive too.

    But that's just one on my list and don't want to get caught up too much in just one.

    Let's just agree with this bloke, so he goes away! Yes TYSON FURY'S win over Wlad is the best win in the history of the sport............NOT! Get it together chap, you're clearly buckling under pressure.

    Yes, but Wlad's level of competition was weak. Yes he reigned for a while. But Mosley looked better KO'ing cans at 135 than Wlad did KO'ing cans at HW.

    Mosley went up to 147 and beat prime DLH. And his losses came above his natural weight class to much like Forrest and Wright.

    For sure. Among active fighters there are two wins that absolutely stand the tests of time.

    That is Pacquiao-Barrera I and Jones-Toney. Both of those were shockingly ridiculous performances. Sublime.

    Ok I will concede. I still believe many of those others on my list were greater.

    So if berto had of beat mayweather it wouldn't of counted??? No? He's 38. Same thing.
    Btw it doesn't matter at all that Vlad is 38. Because if he was to fight on now, who would you pick to beat him apart from fury. Nobody!!!!! Klitchko would still be favourite against anyone in the division. So it means nothing that Vlad is 39
