It seems each year, as Wladimir keeps dominating his opponents, there are more people who respect him and recognize Wlad as an all-time great heavyweight.
That being said, no matter what he does, Wladimir will always have a FEW die-hard haters, mostly those who refuse to give him credit because of their nationalistic or racial biases.

I don't like Wlads style and find the division as boring as he is but the fact is nobody has been able to solve the riddle in a decade. Like it or lump it he's a first ballot into the Hall if he quits today and is an all time great heavyweight.

He's welcome into the HoF and has to be respected I respect ALL fighters. I'm not a hater because I'm not a fan of a fighter I'm a fan of "boxing"! I don't need to know his record or who he fought I can see his talent level and I can evaluate his skill level. He's a good boxer who is awkward in the ring but has improved. He has no outstanding features in his arsonal. He takes advantage of his great height but thats a marginal talent its more of a genetic "helper" hahaha!!! There are many fighters that have better skills and talents along with techniques! I take nothing away from him but I have spent years in the sport as a trainer and part time manager and fought as a young man and Wlad to me is NOT an ATG fighter. He reigns in his era and that s to be commended. Plus a Happy Birthday!!

No One at all
2 BIG men in a shitty division at the perfect time to dominate.
What ATG fighters in their prime did Larry Holmes beat? How about Mike Tyson? What about Jack Johnson, was that a prime Jeffries he stopped? Joe Louis, wasn't that an old faded Max Schmeling he beat?
If Wladimir had beaten a faded Tyson like Kevin McBride and Lennox Lewis did, would that make him an ATG?
Wladimir has stopped 17 people who were never stopped by anyone else before. No other heavyweight in history has done that.

I could post gif's of Mike Tyson's or Muhammed Ali's worst moments too.
But I think it's better to judge boxers on their best performances.
Re: Happy 37th birthday to all-time great heavyweight Wladimir Klitschko
Well that's the thing about Wlad, when people talk about prospective matchups with the Klitschko's, they always compare the best of another guy to the Wlad who got bitched out by Sanders. Nevermind the guy who hasn't lost in nearly 10 years and, yes, has fought some terrific fighters of all shapes and sizes.
Happy Birthday to an ATG for sure.
