Where do you rank Wladimir Klitschko currently amonst list of Heavyweight greats?

currently knocking on top twenty.

 

you might be being ironic, I don't know but I will take that as straight since that would be the norm and expected interpretation.

I base it on persistence and longevity, I am not claiming H2h ablity (which for wlad is terrible), merely accrued acheviements.

 

I don't see how he could *not* make top ten on any list. Anybody ranking him lower than 15 is either a hater or dksab.

 

Ottke is terrible.

I just think that great effort deserves something, and knocking on to twenty does not displace the true atgs unduly (which he will never touch).

 

Why don't you supply a list of 20 boxers with a better resume' than Wladimir?

If he sucks so much, it ought to be easy.

 

and youre an alt desperate to prove a point.

 

it is easy. why are you asking to be proved wrong so easily thus?

 

That was @ Boxed Ears

 

alt?

 

yes but nevertheless why are you posing such as easy question.

 

If it is so easy, then go for it.:hey

 

LOL ... crickets chirping. That's what I thought.

 

Actually, Boxed Ears' post got me thinking and I went to look through Wladimir's record. What stands out to me is the extraordinarily high percentage of formerly undefeated fighters who earned their first "L" against Wlad, as well as fighters with a single loss who went down to him.

Wlad is anything but a bottom-feeder. It seems to me that he has consistently looked for the toughest possible fights.

 

[boxed ears] "There's an enormous list, do you think I just sat here and waited for some random guy I don't know to reply to me and see if he wants me to take the time to write the enormous list which you obviously demand to see reason?"

OK, so for future reference, "20" = "enormous" for Boxed Ears. Got it. It is good to have a point of departure for your views.

FYI, you managed to type a 46 word reply to me, which would have taken care of both first and last names of the boxers on your "enormous" list.
