    Better quality of opposition than both Dempsey and Johnson

    Who were the great names of Tyson's 4/5 year reign?

    What about Holmes's era?

    Just named them for you, but you ignored my response for some reason.

    Well it's a good thing you're arguing against positions I haven't taken. So let's try this again - who is Wlad's best win?

    Then I guess that'll mean AJ is really shitty when he gets KTFO by Wlad then right?

    You didn't reply to me directly so I didn't see it. It says a lot that Peter, Byrd and Cruiserweight, Haye, are considered his best opponents. The truth is, Wlad is defined by his losses, not his wins.

    I guess one of Wlad's 20 punches thrown the entire fight could knock him out, yes. Unlikely, I'd say. Wlad is 40 - he has nothing new to show. He fights like a scared man.

    Wlad just lost to Tyson Fury one of if not the most skilled fighters at HW, AJ just beat Eric Molina.

    I think Fury's 'skill's is based on the fact that he beat Wlad. The truth is, Wlad lost because Fury was his own size and could outjab a perennial jabber. He didn't really need that much skill, in honesty. He had the physical tools. And what does AJ have to do with what I have said?

    Wladimir has never fought a cruserweight. All his opponents have been over 200 pounds. Was Ali also a cruserweight, because he started his career around 188 pounds? Povetkin is a four time gold medalist with a amazing amateur record avenging all his losses. Wladimir is defined by his wins against solid opponents like all champions.

    Wladimir beat many people his size or outsized him. Tyson was not his first opponent his size. The reason you like to believe that is your hatred for the Klitschko's. Which is obvious.

    Wlad lost to Fury because Fury's movement, feints, reach, counterpunching and angles gave him issues, and by his nature Wlad isn't an aggressive come forward destroyer, he's a counter puncher himself, so it took Wlad out of his comfort zone, that is all. AJ is a flat footed come forward one two throwing destroyer, the kind of guy Wlad has always looked good against, stylistically Fury was a nightmare for Wlad, stylistically Wlad is a nightmare for AJ.
