    So not a shotgun?
    Alot of it is down to the silent crowd.If the crowd were more vocal,it'd have sounded like Hayes right hand that landed on Enzo Maccarinelli

    Perfect example of what gets WALDO so much hate on these boards, right there.

    A big lumbering stationary target with chin issues does not give Ali problems unless you're talking Ali post 1975.

    Vlad is a very respectable champion who deserves to be held in higher esteem by the public and the press. There should be no doubt that he is a near-great on an all-time basis. However, even when Vlad is retired, I do not expect anyone to accord him the status of a genuine all-time great champion. This is because we have seen Vlad stopped three times already by fighters he should have beaten. Add to this that when age catches up to Vlad -- as it eventually will -- he will probably be knocked out in spectacular fashion by someone. I say this because when age erodes Vlad's reflexes just a little, he is bound to be hit by that big knockout punch that he cannot avoid. Such a loss will not help Vlad's legacy.

    Still, regardless of how Vlad's career ends when he is older, he should definitely be remembered as being the nearly the best of the Category II all-time heavyweights based on how good he was in his prime. Category II, to me, includes the 15th to 40th best heavyweights on an all-time basis.

    I've seen WALDO fight and I've also seen prime Ali fight. This is a mismatch in every sense of the word.

    Goodnight WALDO :hi:

    What is it with you guys. I never said Austin was good. We were talking about the sound of the punches that Wlad hit him with

    Fastest triple/quadruple left hook I've seen in HW boxing in a long ass time. Did the job too.
