    By popular demand?! One is probably Top 16-30 all time, the other does not even make Top 100.

    Frankly I'm surprised no one has come in here and say "Wlad vs. Napoles P4P would look exactly like the Monzon fight"

    Wlad’s career is not over yet. Currently Wlad should rate as a top 15 all time heavyweight, and his status will certainly increase if he passes Holmes and Joe Louis on successful title defenses.

    Napoles for his part was smooth and skilled, but not very fast or powerful. He’s not a top 5 welter weight. Spots #8 to 12 seem fair for Napoles, which is where Wlad might end up. As a middle Jose wasn’t skilled enough to overcome his lack of size vs the best.

    I remember this thread. I posted in it. Like, before this post. I'm not talking about this post. I'm thinking you are confused? I posted in this thread, prior to this post, at an earlier date. Multiple times. I said, "ass-backwards sense of significance," in one of those posts. Go on, reread the thread, you'll see. I said it. Well, I didn't 'say,' really, as in projected through speech. I typed it. In an earlier post than this one. In this thread...which I remember. Because I posted in it.
