    No ?

    Which HW has outpointed which other HW so decisively in the last 30 years ?


    Even Cobb was more of a threat to Holmes than Johnson was yesterday.

    He's clearly a top 20 alltime HW.

    And much higher than that H2H.

    Right now he still hasn't reach that level, but he is not far if you consider his achievements and what he could still do. Imagine if the beats both Haye and Solis next year, that would help his legacy considerably.

    IMO, H2H he is one of the top 10 HWs out there in history, probably top 20 in the HW list today, I consider ATG only the top 15.

    He won every round. That is dominance.

    HAye has done nothing in career to indicate that he could ahndle Vitali.

    Yes - it's not his fault the heavyweight division is weak but he fought the top available contenders and beat them is what count.

    Resume
    Obed Sullivan
    Ross Purity
    Larry Donald
    kirk johnson
    corrie sanders
    danny williams
    sam peter
    juan gomez
    chris arreola
    kevin johnson

    Not a bad resume for this heavyweight era at least.

    The Johnson fight answered the one unknown or doubt I had about Vitali and that was his stamina. It's clear that the man has incredible stamina even at 38. He broke Ibeabuchi's record for most thrown punches in a 12 rounder by a HW.
    Great boxing skills, great chin, great stamina. Deadly combination.
    A comment I read on youtube summed up the fight nicely "It was not rope-a-dope, it was dope-on-a-rope"

    Against a heavyweight who threw a handful of punches back..

    Ask David Tua what he thinks of that comment. Or Ike himself for that matter. :lol:

    I doubt Tua can throw 30 punches per round at 36. Vitali throws over 100 and he's 38.

    prime Tua threw 755 punches over 12 rounds
    very old Vitali threw 1013 punches over 12 rounds
    prime David Haye threw 140 punches over 12 rounds

    :lol:

    Vaughn Bean is a better win than some of those. Only lost a disputed MD to Moorer when he was champion and a competitive fight to Holyfield just before his fight with Lewis. You can also add Orlin Norris who holds wins over Oliver McCall, Tony Tucker etc.

    But Vitali Klitschko is not about resume. :bbb
