Where do you rank WLADIMIR KLITCHKO in the ATG HEAVYWEIGHTS??

Is Larry Holmes(who was hated by many at his time BTW) in top 10 ATG HW?
He didn't beat anyone from ATG's also. (except robbery in the second fight with Spinks).
Holmes is one of my alltime favorite, but i would not put my money on him if he fight wlad( i mean prime Holmes).

 

Purrity did not "spank" Wladimir, Wlad just gassed out & Ross capitalized. Still a legit win but let's not make like Wlad was outclassed or outboxed.

 

Fair enough, but it does not make the win any less damaging to him, Purrity is the very definition of a journeyman.

 

so is carl thompson!

 

:good
its sad how Wlad and another fighter will lose yet Wlad is RIPPED for it while excuses are made for the other.

Most fighters have lost at some point. Purrity was 11-12 years ago. Haye act like it was his last fight. ****.. Wlad was only 21 at the time and still learning.

Give it a rest already

 

How damaging is the loss to Clinton Mitchell on Bernard Hopkins' standing?

 

Hopkins didn't get knocked out.

 

prison will do that to a man.

you generally learn to stay awake!

though im not speaking from experience.

 

That has nothing to do with it. To me it looks worse if a fighter is actually outboxed, rather than just getting stopped in a fight they were winning big. Besides that... if the young Wlad was fighting anything other than a 12 round fight than he would have won that fight. Simply a matter of horrible management of an up and coming fighter who was being overworked and under prepared. It was Wlad's 24th fight in 2 years... 6th fight in 6 months... ect... he obviously couldn't have been properly prepared for a 12 round fight against an iron chinned journeyman. Which is why he went in with a horrible gameplan. Nobody on this earth actually thinks that Puritty is better than Wlad so that fight really doesn't mean jack **** anymore.

 

i think wlad needs to get into a couple big fights , that turn into wars in the ring that people look back on and say thats wlad. his fights are just boring. He to much of a business man than a champ and its getting stupid. Like he pound rahman and now hasnt fought sense that and looking to be in june. True warrior would be figting now in march. When haye drops him he will be forgotten and remember for his boring ass fights and his gay fights of 2008. I actually order in the PPv for wlad vs iggy.. and if i see wlad i want my 50 bucks back u ****. Hes a good boxer but not a warrior the people want to see. I wnat to see him and the BIG Chris Arreala fight just bcasue hes more worthy of iggy , thompson and rahman. he will be on the top 30 of the ATG but i have seen enough of his ****.
