    Hernandez was undefeated for 11 years and only lost to ODLH after moving up to 135.

    No, but he also had Azumah Nelson in his division. Hernandez was ranked #2, just behind Nelson.

    It was an Nelson so past his prime he had lost to James Leila. It wasn’t the real azumah nelson at all he hadn’t had a significant win in 4 years.

    That is true. But Wlad came from a loss after a 16-month layoff and he was 41 years old when he fought Joshua. Hernandez didn't come from a loss and he was only 32 years old when he fought Mayweather (albeit he was still past prime like I said).

    Wladimir is a man who cares about pride. The man you saw that night was one motivated determined man. He was really up for that fight. Was one of the more impressive performances from Klitschko I've seen in at least 5/6 years, it's as if the Fury loss gave him the kick he needed.

    AJs win is by far the better win, it's not like he fought a out of shape turn up just for the pay cheque version of Wlad. As much as I love Floyd, Klitschko was a far better win I don't think it's comparable but then again I suck AJs 10 incher so my view is void.

    That’s true, Wlad was up there in age, coming off a loss and inactive which is why for me Fury’s win was more impressive by far but at the same time, Hernandez never ruled over a division like Wlad did and never even unified his division at any point of his career. Doesn’t make him a bad fighter but I can’t compare him to a HOFer and ATG top 15 ATG HW like Klitischko.

    That's OK. Hernandez is a HOFer as well isn't he? Or he will be. Klitschko is obviously rated better than him, but he was probably more past it - that is at least debatable. But the real difference like I said that Mayweather didn't go life and death with Hernandez. Joshua did with Klitschko and he looked bad in several rounds.

    I don’t think he is, well I couldn’t find anything which said he is the HOF.
    More past it? Hmm well two things to consider:
    1. Wlad had a way higher ceiling p4p than Hernandez, so it’s hard to even say that a past it Wlad was on Hernandez’s level.
    2. Mayweather p4p in terms of skills is way more talented than AJ will ever be imo.
