These ppl say that because they KNOW that the HW division is good, it's just that Klitschko is so good, so big and so dominant that he outshines all contenders.
That's why there are few opportunities for ATG these days, dominance prevents that. The more "ATG's" an era features REALLY means that none of the boxers in that era were really THAT great, otherwise they wouldn't have let other boxers shine brightly enough to be considered.
