    The guy truelly Ducks NOBODY

    Anyone whose had a high rating in the heavyweight division in the past 5 years, Wlad has fought(with the exception of his brother)

    David Haye
    Alexander Povetkin
    Ruslan Chagaev
    Tyson Fury
    Kubrat Pulev
    Bryant Jennings

    Wlad is one of a kind, fearless. He likes to fight the best, even at 39 years old

    haye and pov are the only ones that count as bone fide challengers, and even they aren't much, nowhere near top level.

    He will never get credit from the haters on this board. They will always accuse him of ducking the best even when he's facing and beating them. You all know which posters I'm talking about, won't be naming anyone....

    Wlad will get far more credit 10 years from now, regardless of what he does from here out in his illustrious career.

    Truly, that's one thing you simply have to give it to him.

    Wlad is truly one of a kind in that he was the first (and likely the last) to duck a fight in the ring for an entire 12 rounds.

    A live on air duck.

    Wilder admitted Wlad kicked his ass in sparring. How do you reconcile that with Wlad being scared of Wilder :lol:

    Agreed on that. Nobody has come close to unseating the guy in years and years. His style may want for excitement, but in the end, he'll be recognized for what he is, a truly dominant champion who simply outclassed the rest of the field.
