    Just don't agree. Chonyski had the draw agaisnt Jefferies, the 26 round legendary loss to Corbett. I would say they were about equal.

    Since when did Vitaliy lose his titles? I thought he was the recognized champ after Lewis retired and today even debate on whether he is the man or not

    Former Ring Champion, WBO titleist and 2 time and current WBC titleist.

    I'd say he's is/was a champ.

    Bare in mind it would have been declared a draw should one fighter not have one within the distance. Langford as a HW beat the likes of Wills, McVea, Jeannette, Fireman Jim Flynn, Bearcat Wright, Gunboat Smith etc.

    Tua or Golota. During their respective peaks, I thought they are destined to become HW champs.
