Klitschko's best win

[Benelio]

Would beating Joshua make it Klitschko's best win?

Only if Joshua then manages to come back and win another world title IMO.

It will be the biggest win to date for whoever is the victor. Some people will claim that Wlad was shot if AJ wins, but it will still be Joshua's biggest win to date. Some (many the same) will claim that AJ was overrated if Wlad pulls it off but it will still be his greatest victory due to his age, coming back from an absolutely catastrophic performance going on two years ago, and defeating the pride of the UK in the UK.

Yeah... AJ would be his best win by 10,000 country miles... But it's a pipe dream that will never happen.

Really - we shall see.

W Klitschkos best wins:

AJ (if he wins, although we will see how AJs career goes from here)
Povetkin
Haye
Peter 1
Pulev
Byrd 1
Chagaev

The nature of the wins isn't important, but pretty good list considering the era.

As you can tell from all of these replies, there's not really a "Best Win" in his years of smothering and hugging people in the ring and boring the masses like no other champion did before him. WLAD WAS THE WORST CHAMPION IN HEAVYWEIGHT HISTORY so I for on, will be having a big party next week when he gets knocked out and begins his retirement. Good riddance you boring robot. You will not be missed.

[Best Coast]

1.David Haye
2.Kubrat Pulev
3.Alexander Povetkin
4.Chris Byrd
5.Ruslan Chagaev

Close to what I would've had, except I'd have it like...

1) Haye
2) Povetkin
3) Byrd
4) Pulev
5) Ibragimov

Both lists are accurate and highlight the fact that Wlad's prime saw him excel in an era of heavyweight mediocrity.

Conspicuously absent from Wlad's roster are the 3 best HWs of Wlad's era: Lennox, Ibeabuchi and (understandably) his brother Vitali (who was never a legit option).

Any of those 3 would have destroyed his questionable chin, which was unable to even withstand the power of 2nd and 3rd-raters like Puritty, Sanders and Brewster.

Wlad's prime was 2006-2016, and neither Ibeabuchi or Lewis even fought in that date range.

How do people rate Haye as his best win? I'd put Haye as #3 and below. Didn't some people have Haye losing to Valuev? I think Povetkin is hands-down Klitschko's best win.

Also, a win over AJ wouldn't be Klitschko's best win. AJ's resume is very, very thin. His best win is still probably Dillian Whyte.
