    Lewis reigns and retires. Vitali and Wladimir Klitchko reign.

    I cant see Vitally Klitschko making a living as a boxer in any era before the 1950s. Any time before that and the schedule would break him.

    Destroy is a strong word, but Louis is only one that i see having a chance against Klitschko's. Heavyweights were physically much smaller back then. And the few exceptions like Willard or Carnera had poor skills.

    LOL, Vitali Klitschko has had over 250 combat matches. Just add up his amateur and pro boxing and kick boxing matches. Is this active enough for you? To suggest he could not compete with mostly smallish heavies is mind boggling. As for recent activity, Vitali is making 2-3 defenses a year at age 37-39, which is many cases is more than champions made pre 1950 when they were much younger.
