    Hardly a troll for stating the obvious
    You are mentally challenged. You thought Joshua had 5 rounds vs usyk. Lol maybe in both fights combined and even that's a stretch

    Now thats a moronic take, evidenced by the thread and poll

    Ah yes, classic logic they’re bums because you say so, and if anyone disagrees, they’re just stupid. Totally not circular or arrogant at all, incredible argument really airtight.

    And the context is: he dominated his era like only few others did.

    It's hardly obvious when most of the posters have Wlad as a Top 10 HW and some of them even have him in Top 5.

    I injured myself by swinging at air. You probably never even had a gloves on, have you, kid?

    So if you're way better than everybody else in your era and someone else is just better than everybody else in their era automatically means the latter era was more competetive? Why doesn't it mean that the fighter A was better than fighter B? Both are logical and you are picking the answer that fits your narrative. Mike Tyson dominated his short era more than Wlad did his, it for sure means that Tyson's era was weaker, right?

    How so? Holmes struggled with guys like Witherspoon and Williams. Wlad faced similar levels of talent and dominated.

    The 2000-2006 was actually a period were no one clearly dominating dominating and the belts kept going round....

    Then Wlad hit his stride and that stopped.

    Please explain how Byrd and Povetkin are worse than Witherspoon and Carl Williams. Holmes struggled badly with his opponents , Wlad dominated his. But somehow, Holmes is better because he struggled more? That’s the logic now?

    Please point out the part I mentioned Holmes being better?

    I didn't

    I preferred his era because the fights were competitive

    Is that simplified enough?

    Also Tim was a great boxer thank you very much

    So you rate Holmes below Wlad?
