    Too bad Wlad and Vitali weren't American... Their longevity was amazing.

    June would be a great time for a comeback to make this list. Wilder has unfinished business with this dude
    Let's hope he is out of the slammer by then

    sure, but as they were hardly shining elites then dont qualify here.

    Ortiz is older than Wlad and Lewis? Is it because Wilder beat him? And did Ortiz look as old as Wlad when he fought Joshua? Now Cubans are known to be older, so I just need facts, not an opinion only because Wilder beat him and people dick blow Joshua. When Joshua was going to fight him, Joshua fans blew him up as possibly being better than anyone Wilder has faced. When Wilder was going to fight him he was 68. Lmao

    You spam every Klitschko thread (As well as every Calzaghe thread), you feel the need to spout your severe hatred and jealousy with your trolling. Yet nobody even agrees with your stupid trolling. You just waste your time , talking to yourself. What a loser you are.

    Good list and nice to see a few Thais including all round fighting legend Deathmask Veeraphol, a personal fav.

    Not sure if Pong qualifies...Pong lost his title in 2012 when he was around 34 or 35. Hasn't done anything of consequence since. Thais have amazing longevity in fight terms.

    What would have changed if they were American?
    They both made a ton of money.

    I was just coming to say Donnie Nietes :lol:

    I'd also say Froch, Duran & Hearns if they haven't been stated yet.

    They were DEFINITELY ELITES. That goes without saying. I'm not getting into a discussion with a troll. You are Indian :lol: you can't say nothing about anything to do with boxing or sport, Your massive nation of BILLIONS underachieves massively in every sport. there's never been a Indian fighter ever who even had 1% of the ability Calzaghe or the Klitschko's had. Run along because I don't waste time with trolls.

    It's not like he comes in and lays down. Chisora puts up a good fight. I don't rate the HW div. like the others. Its the most real division there is in combat sports. You don't get to act like a lil ole ***** above 200lbs like fighters do below it.

    how does it go without saying that they were able to beat everyone else except other elites?

    once again you've failed to back up what you argued, and I have.
