    may have beaten every quality fighter of his era, as few as there are, but he sure was knocked the **** out by a couple subpar opponents!

    Your thread is weak.

    Quite a good point and one I've made before - Tyson's ATG status is also hurt by the lack of competition in that 85-89 period. Was he dominant? Yes, but there were no Fraziers or Foremans to measure himself against. Wlad will be remembered as the best HW of THIS era, picking up where Lewis left off. But among the greatest ever? I don't see it......

    Lennox was considered a bum after he lost vs. Rahman. Now the same idiots put him into a godlike status..... pathetic.


    Klitschko is 33. Completely healthy. Completely motivated. He can box 5 more years on top level. 2,5 fights a year. That means he makes about 12-15 fights. 65-3 (58 KO) at the end.

    Klitschko is on the best way to enter the ATG Top10 and at the end of his career serious boxing expert will rank him quite high, if he cleanes out the division the next five years. Regardless he his a white non-american. Joe Louis had 20 defenses vs. the bum of the month club.
