Heavyweight champions from the year 2000 to today

And me
I should have said from year 2000

 

I'm surprised Holyfield hasn't been mentioned by anyone

 

Historically in no order but the 5 -

W Klitschko
L Lewis
O Usyk
E Holyfield

The last one is a tough pick as I could make several arguments but will go

Vitali Klitschko - went 15 - 2 in world title fights, beat WBO champion Hide, Sanders (who was coming off a win over WBO champion Wladimir) for WBC and lineal, WBC champion Peters

 

Singular win in no order -
Ruiz / Joshua
Usyk / Fury
Lewis / Vitali
Holyfield / Tyson
Rahman / Lewis

 

I know
I wrote
Take their overall careers, not just from the start of the century if their careers started before then. Obviously some are still happening

Overall as in everything they have done

 

I picked that as one of the wins

Singular win in no order -
Ruiz / Joshua
Usyk / Fury
Lewis / Vitali
Holyfield / Tyson
Rahman / Lewis

 

I think Vitali could have a better resume than Fury as well when I think about it

Fury 5 - 2 - 1 in world title fights
Vitali 15 - 2 in world title fights

Fury defeated 2 world champions
Vitali defeated 2 world champions and a fighter who had just won a world title

Fury defeated Wladimir
Vitali defeated a fighter who stopped Wladimir in 2 rounds

Fury wins over Wladimir, Wilder, Whyte, Chisora in title fights

Vitali wins over Sanders, Hide, Arreola, Peters, Adamek, Charr, Briggs, Solos, Chisora to name a few

 

He had no problem taking big fights
Holyfield, Haye, Valuev etc

 

Why not?
The thread said overall careers for fighters who had been world champions from start of 2000 onwards

I would guess you have Lewis?
