The term super heavyweight with skills has no official guideline. Here's mine

Everytime he had to 'fight' he lost.

Great potential and talent , but its useless if you don't the mentality to deliver it. He was never a great fighter in his life. Great only when things were going his way.

 

You don't need to be technically complete to be a great fighter.

You only need to be able to win.

 

Example?

 

As mentioned previously, Ali would seem to be the obvious example, but we could go further.

I don’t think that many of the great swarmers of history were particularly complete fighters.

Any great fighter that lacks a key dimension to their game could be said to be incomplete.

 

Ali beat greats to make him great. He clearly had an x factor in his performance that made him great.
Same with Marciano and Roy Jones.

 

What does Wlad have that Ali didn't?

I can name multiple attributes and achievements Ali had that Wlad doesn't

 

Everybody in the top 10 has.

Ali has faced 15 boxers ranked within he Ring Top 50 HW list.

Even Rid**** Bowe has 3.

Wlad has faced Zero and lost to Fury who could potentially be the best guy he ever fought , on top of 3 other loses to guys no where near the top 50.

 

Liston has 5 wins against guys ranked in the top 50.
Johnson has Jeffries.
Dempsey isn't a top 10 of all time in most people's books.

When your comp is terrible like Wlads was , you expect them , if they were great, to blitz thru them a la Roy Jones and Mike Tyson style.
But that wasn't the case. He made laborious , tedious work , often using fouls to beat guys he held every physical advantage over.

 

Jimmy Wilde was much more of an athletic ko artist than a technical boxer.

Bit like what Hamed tried his hardest to be. So much raw speed and power he never had to learn fundamentals to compete at the highest level nor to dominate at the highest level.

Canto was the most technical fighter in the FLW division but would I expect him to avoid the power of Wilde over 15 rounds, I honestly don't know. But Perez would get stopped by Wilde I believe, to willing to exchange and get in close.
