There's not been a great HW since Vitali and Sanders and not an ATG since Lewis

    Fury Joshua and Wilder are all total jokes

    And sorry, Wladimir's petrified style against an endless deluge of midget D-side bums did nothing for me

    I understand if you didn’t care for his style but there is no arguing that Wlad is an ATG Heavyweight. Don’t be a Dildovelvet Dickhead Bouche :D You’re better than that! 23 career title defenses and a 10 year reign. Plus one of the top 5 jabs and right hands in history. Come on now...

    And if you don’t like the current crop... just wait until Hrgovic, Teslenko, Sirenko and Usyk develop more at HW ;) Those guys will be action packed fighters.

    Except for Wlad and Joshua that is.

    I also think that Povetkin had the potential to be more than he is. His KO of Takam was legit unlike Joshua's. He's won all of his fights except for his bout with Wlad where he got hugged to death and managed to go the distance. He's basically been the top contender waiting in the wings since 2011. It's just too bad he never fought Pulev, Boytsev, Haye, Stiverne, or Wilder. He is to Wlad sort of what Tim Witherspoon was to Larry Holmes.

    Sanders wasnt a great HW, he was a failed contender even in his very best form.

    How is vitali great, he never came close to dominating?

    Vitali dominated every fight he was in apart from fights he was injured in. That's why they call him the "Dominator"..You can count on 2 hands the amount of rounds he lost in his career. His ko percentage is sickeningly good !

    Sanders was a lot better than his resume would suggest.

    you're just being a klitschko apologist.

    whoever had knocked wlad out so fast that night, you'd claim the same of them, and you'd defer to saying Sanders was a nobody should you even notice him.

    Sanders wasnt good enough to land a title shot at any time when active. He wasnt bad, but a failed eventual non-contender isnt even very good. Rather, prime Wlad just wasnt good enough to work out southpaws, his skillset was good but way too narrow.
