    There is nothing legendary in beating 40+ years old Klitschko. He will proove himself as a top contender but becoming a legend with fighting only 1 guy from top10? It doesn't matter that Klitschko was and maybe still is number 1 heavyweight. If you want to become a legend you must beat and face everyone like Klitschko did.

    He also lost against Sanders. In any case, the main crux of my point was that he doesn't really hold a win against anyone of particular note.

    Sanders was a top ten heavyweight who unlike Williams and Spinks retired with a good win/loss ratio. Unless you coinsider every heavyweight at one time apart from a very small select few, bums, you can not seriously say Sanders is a bum.

    Yes, by most objective standards, Wlad's era has been full of bums. You still haven't given me a name that defines his career. Sanders would have been a bum in most eras. He didn't achieve much.

    There have been no more bums in Wladimir's era than any other era. Sanders would do much better in some other eras.
    Wladimir's best opponents are Peter, Byrd, Haye, Povetkin and Pulev.

    Nobody had a clue who the HW Champ was during that time. He wasn't talked about when he was active. He won't be remembered 10 years from now , never mind 50 :chuck:

    And then they will watch his fights and see that he was an utter disgrace to the sport who had to cheat constantly just to beat bums and puff'd up cruiser weights.
    Legacies are built in the fights and Wlads most notable fights are all the ones he LOST.

    Sanders was unranked and semi retired. He wasn't even top 10 in his own era during the 90's.

    Yes you are right. I would not call Sanders a bum though, but Purrity does fit that category.
