In my eyes yes

yes he is essentially a dull fighter to watch as was lewis

yes he does pretty much rely on his superior reach as did lewis

You cant blame the guy for not having much competition to beat up on. Vitaly would of been a fantastic asset during the early 90s when the likes of tyson, holyfield, lewis, bowe etc were around

We don't know how he would've done mate. He may have beaten them all, he may have lost to them all. That's the problem, he can only be judged by his best wins and his best win is Sam Peter

i dunno mate he has been faultless for over a decade now, hasnt come up short once and even though it was a shot lewis was still in many peoples eyes winning that fight all them years back.

My 1st ever viewing of vitali klitschko was when he fought herbie hide in britain and hide was trash talking about his family members. Vitali wasnt a happy boy in the pre fight press conference and well we all know he took out his frustrations when they finally got it on in the ring

I totally go with you on that one.... you cannot dismiss the accomplishments of the guy with the highest K.O rate in the history of the HW, especially when he's been flawless for more or less a decade. So based on these, yeah, I think he deserves the hall of fame.

I tried to point it out yesterday but you missed the point. Ha, your confusion made me laugh. In a nice way.

[Lance Uppercut]

Better question: Is Kermit Cintron a hall of famer?

Vitali is a sad case yet simple case. In short the hall of fame is based on what you've done not what you were capable of. Therefore Vitali will not get in the hall. Vitali fought in an era where there wasn't a long list of names to put on your resume. And heavyweights have less leverage because they can't move to another division to look for competition or big names. He can't fight his brother and he never got the Lennox rematch so Vitali was left feasting on guys like Corrie Sanders, Sam Peter, and Chris Arreola, which by the way are his best wins. This isn't enough. In hindsight, Vitali had to finish against Byrd and get a victory over Lennox. There isn't enough ahead in the heavyweight division for Vitali to reasonable add to his resume especially considering his career is twilighting. Its sad because Vitali has the ability to be a major factor against great fighters and easily make it into the hall of fame but his options were extremely limited.

Well one thing is for certain, his case is stronger now than it was in 2007 when the thread was started.

He has come back to win a world title for the second time, and has completely dominated all of his opposition.

He only needs a defining fight to make it in now imo.

It's kind of hard to say whether he deserves to be there ahead of his brother, but as between them the Klitschko brothers have dominated the heavyweight scene for the last 5 years or so it's really not easy to say they no longer deserve to be there.

If Vitali (or Wlad for that matter) were to get wins over the most credible opponents, I'd say Povetkin and Haye, then they would merit consideration then I would say.

Like I've said before, they can't help that thie era is weak, but they aint getting in my hall of fame for beating Peter, Haye or Povetkin

If Wlad and Vitali fight each other, then the winner should get into the hall of fame
