    its alot harder for him to find hall of famers. He cant really jump weight classes to find him. Too bad the only other good fighter in the division is his brother. Anyone that had a chance to be good theyve beaten

    That might be a more interesting question...how many HOF's can he fight? who's out there? I mean if Adamek moves up to HW that's a maybe... but who else is out there? Byrd is a long shot...Mercer won't be in there...Brewster didn't do enough....

    exactly... this is just on my head...

    not to his fault... neither has really been able to fight any top tier guys...

    yet the brothers combine for 8 cumulative losses against C/B level fighters... but at the same time some say they are 2 of the greatest hw's ever..

    go figure

    It's amazing how many people can hate a guy who keeps on winning and usually ktfo his opponents. He is one of the few stars in the HW dovision yet so many just hate him.

    8? I think it's 5 in like 90 fights? please correct me but that's not bad Vitali has the same amount of losses as lennox but against better fighter's one being LL... the two brothers have less losses than LL and Mike Tyson... and against better fighters....

    how many HOF's did tyson beat?

    they have 5... typo on my part


    wlad has 3 L's
    vit has 2 L's


    wlad = ross purity tko 11, corrie sanders tko 2, lamon brewster tko 5
    vit = chris bird rtd 9, lennox lewis tko 6

    more of a klit discussion thread... they are fantastic fighters and the best of their era...

    this thread is more about how garbage their era is ... and to bring down some posters who would go as far as saying wlad = best hw ever

    see what you have to understand.... to be exciting in this sport you have to be
    - fight in dramatic fashion (tyson/gamboa)
    - be extremely outgoing (mayorga/floyd)
    - be HIGHLY SKILLED (pernell/bhop)

    wlad doesnt fall under any of these characters.... i mean its not like hes uppercutting & hooking his opponents heads off... he just jabs them to death.. which is cool i guess.. but its just boring... its also not even his fault hes boring because he has 0 competition...

    imagine kobe playing against a bunch of high school kids.... nobody would care because it would be completely unfair..not to kobes fault
    my bad.. typo .. typo

    but its not even about winning or losing... its just about fighting

    and tyson fought

    larry holmes - micheal spinks - evander holyfield x2 - lennox lewis

    Holmes and Spinks are both HOFers.

    Spinks not a HOFer at HW but hes a still a HOF.
