    how can anyone who saw him get blasted by Sanders in the first and second rounds even claim he could be the greatest of all time?

    Please take this thread down, even the known Wlad nuthuggers seem to disagree with you. Wlad is a very good Heavyweight, with ATG skills, but his weak chin, and lack of toughness at the top level, will make it a easy day for any big punching Heavyweight with a good chin, or even a great boxer with a great chin. The only ATG Heavyweights that would even have a chance of getting beat by Wlad, are guys like Patterson and maybe Frazier, but even that fight would test Wlads glass chin early on, the key to beating Wlad is making uncomfortable in the ring, always being coming forward, and look for that one big punch to make Wlad panic and become an easy target, he's only good when he's the one doing the punching, the guy doesnt no how to go toe to toe, and if he does decide too, he will end up on his back.

    I don't know where to begin.... :lol:


    Wlad is great. Easily the best at the moment.

    But if you can't see for yourself why he isn't the GOAT...... there really is no point discussing it with you. :verysad

    Wladimir Klitschko is a very good fighter who I believe has a shot at greatness, should he continue to win. If my stats are correct, he is now 11-2 in world title fights and has a respectable record of 50-3-0-44. He has my vote as being the best fighter of the last 3 years, but has not quite convinced me of undisputed status. I would like to see him beat guys like Peter ( again ), Povetkin, and maybe the winner of Chagaev-Valuev. If he manages to beat some or all of these guys and keeps the "L's" off his record, then I would seriously consider as being a true all time great. For now, his resume is still a work in progress.

    I think he is only the 2nd greatest of all time.......among the Klitschko clan. Vladimir is taller than him. lol

    But the greatest of all time should be Valuev, until Yao Ming crosses over to boxing.

    The greatest? :lol:

    Wlad's good, no disrespect, but No way! Wlad doesnt even have the type of opponent who could change that much.
