    Incumbent mayor of Kyiv, former world heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko has become the first Ukrainian inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame.

    "I would call it a fairy tale, which I did not even dream about. My name appeared next to the names of such legends as Muhammad Ali, Joe Frazier, Mike Tyson and others. There are millions of boxers in the world, thousands of world champions, but being among the world boxing legends is really amazing! Fight for your dream, work, never give up and do not stop. Then everything is possible," Klitschko said.

    Fully deserved, imo one of the best heavyweights ever, better than his brother.

    Vitali Klitschko is basically at Kubrat Pulev's level. Wladimir Klitschko would brutally KO Vitali Klitschko, as he did to Pulev.

    The dude is more of a politician than a boxer.

    He nevet got the credit because he is not Afro American, he doesn’t have tattoos, he didn’t serve time in prison, he never threatened his opponents through the media, etc.

    Best heavyweight of all time.

    How disgraceful that a steroid cheat is permitted to tarnish the sport and stand alongside honest sportsmen who followed the rules.

    4 years out, no tune ups comes back & smashes Peter for the WBC belt (Fury take note!) Injuries set him back time & again. Full respect. Great champion.

    His “generation” being that golden era from 2004-2005, when he wasn’t retired ;)

    Even now he stands a chance (would be an underdog, obviously) against current top heavyweights.

    No, just no. Hughie Fury would destroy him, probably give him brain damage
