    Worsed taught heavyweight division ever.
    Not sure about lack of talent.
    Qualitywise I feel the numbers are very low.

    both are unproven in terms of great victories. it is undeniable. as i said vitali has done more than haye, but considering haye has only had a handful of fights at hw it is understandable.

    but yes vitali's best wins are probably hide and sanders. both will be but a footnote in history. he lost his two biggest fights and had a long layoff. he hasnt cleared out his division. he hasnt consistently taken on the best fighters. he is unproven.

    in his prime i believe he is competitive vs any fighter in history, but due to his thin resume we won't ever know will we?

    lets actually compare the last 3 victories of vitali and haye.

    haye: barret, valuev, ruiz.

    vitali: johnson, sosnowski, briggs.

    is there really much difference in the two recently? i dont think so. plus considering vitalis age, him vs haye is close to 50/50 right now.
