    Wlad scraped by in that fight, decent win but poor performance IMO.
    Id go for Vitali over Peter, he beat the **** out of him, and wasnt it his 1st fight back after the layoff.

    If youre counting Rahman and McCall, them over Lewis by a million miles.

    Adamek's courageous distance win over McBride the Tyson slayer has to be in there. After all, McBride was 285lbs of Irish muscle.

    Nah I dont (count them, obv it'd be an older fighter)

    I think Wlad did well in the Peter fight, it was one of those 'making of a champion' moments.

    Better win than Vitali's imo the Peter he fought was 3 years older and 5 stone fatter

    Rahman is younger than Vitali.

    Wlad beating David Haye.

    Haye's gonna be making noise when Vitali retires and possibly capturing another belt and maybe even challenging Wlad for the undisputed HWCotW.:deal

    Completely disagree. Was no making of a champion moment, it was a petrified fighter grabbing on for dear life and getting dropped 3 times by a fighter who wouldn't even have hit the likes of Lewis.
    Go rewatch the fight, there is nothing impressive about the performance except the result, and it's hardly earth shattering. Peter was crude and clumsy with huge power. Nothing more

    Stop being difficult bro, I am trying to get an assesment of the best win of the current HW generation

    Rahman, McCal, Holyfield, Toney etc are all prime 90s era fighters

    It aint difficult to understand..

    I agree we just look at it differently, I think Wlad showed heart to drag his ass off the canvas even if I suppose it was in an embarrasing situation, that was a watershed moment for him, he has barely been troubled since that fight

    Perhaps Wladimir's wins over Chris Byrd could take pride of place? Byrd was a good champion after all, more accomplished than Peter, imo, 2 time champ and with only one loss when Wladimir first beat him. Wlad has a number of good wins but nothing truly stands out. None of the other heavies seem to have done much. It's sad really, that the next HW to get a great win will be the one who beats either of the brothers. The Klitschkos can't get a great win because there is nobody great for them to fight.

    Wlad beating the undefeated Chageav is another contender. Horrible fight, though.

    The knockdowns were rabbit punches, clearly. And wouldn't have hit Lewis?

    LOL

    Kind of like how euro bum bread hustler Mavrovic wouldn't have had Lewis in serious trouble?

    Quit trolling
