    Yeah, Klitschko really needs to impressively defeat a whole bunch of today´s heavies to have a chance of being considered a great. Especially having the 3 KO losses to not-so great fighters. Lewis was able to make up for his losses to lesser fighters by rematching them and then beating a lot of good or great fighters. Klitschko can´t really rematch Sanders or Puritty by now and there is no great fighter for him to face. But then again maybe Haye, Povetkin and Solis can rise to a higher level and be considered great opponents at a later point.

    Virchis's skill Is crap and Sprott was robbed against him.

    But Sam Peter's skill Is crap too and Virchis has an Iron chin and a heavy punch to make It not go the distance.

    I can't stand Sam Peter but he is not a paper champ. He defeated Maskaev who was the champ. Even though I think there were a number of illegal blows to the back of the head as usual.

    spot on. Virchis is no speed demon. But he is very strong and powerful.

    Peter's reign of his paper title will be short lived.
    Strong --- yes.
    Big, slow, fat, and limited cranial capacity --- also yes.
    Doesnt talk much better than the "Missing Link."
    Will not attract pay-per-views.
    With his very limited boxing skills, I think that its safe to say that he wont be around long.

    He is the most exciting heavy today, goes for knockouts, has tons of power. English is not his first language. Limited boxing skills... he outboxed james toney

    I have seen several Virchis fights. Sprott, Chagaev, Hawkins, Vidoz I & II, etc. He is not slower than Peter. Regarding work rate, see Virchis' fight with Bidenko. Virchis' work rate and conditioning was far superior to anything I have seen Peter display.

    The Toney he beat was a fat slob who looked like he did not roadwork in preparation for the fight.

    Danny Batchelder outboxed & outworked Toney too, in Toney's very next fight. Big deal, that version of Toney was beyond done.

    As far as being an exciting KO artist?

    Peter's last 7 fights resulted in 2 wins by TKO, 3 wins by UD, 1 win by SD & 1 loss by UD.

    In contrast, Wlad's last 7 fights resulted in 5 TKO's & 2 wins by UD.

    English is not Wladimir's first, second or third language, I believe it's his forth after, Ukrainian, Russian & German.
