    How "good" does this day have to be?

    His opponent not turning up?

    The ref allows him to take a few free shots at the opponent in the dressing room?

    The commission allow him to have his brother in the ring too?

    These guys would not be so enthusiastic about applying pressure after trying to jump in with their shorter arms and bodies and getting rammed with Wlads jab. Guys go into survival mode after feeling Wlads power. The guys you listed would inevitably do the same after a short time. Foreman has the best chance but I remember him on HBO saying he did NOT want a fight with Lennox and i think his reasons for that would apply to Wlad as well.

    I don't know, A journeyman with as many losses as wins stopped him, and who could forget about the out of shape 38 yr old golfer?

    Brewster with his very limited talent didn't go into survival mode and look what happened, FFS he was down 3 times and nearly stopped by Fat Peter, the same Peter that Vitali raped after a 4 yr layoff, Wlad does NOT deal well with aggresive power-punchers, mediocre journeymen with those traits have beat him, elite fighters with those traits likely beat him as well.

    Brewster was in survival mode and Wlad gassed. He has seemingly corrected that issue and rabbit punching Peter clearly lost despite his fouls. Wlad has improved in every aspect except excitement since those fights.

    What about TOS, or the 38 yr old golfer?

    That 38 yr old golfer has lightning in his left hand and the height and reach to deliver it. As a matter of fact he has a chance to beat all those guys you listed just based on that alone. None of those shorter pressure fighters you mentioned have that. TOS was a flash knockdown, Wlad was not in serious trouble. Had the cut not happened Wlad would still have been favored to win.

    I don't know, Nate Tubbs and Hasim Rahman beat a younger Sanders, so I doubt he would ever beat guys Like Lewis, Holyfield, Foreman, Louis, Tyson and Liston.

    I dont know man. I think Lewis and then the Klits ushered in the era of the skilled, athletic big men and these fighters would be superior in head to head matches if not overall skill to the atg's of the past.

    That is definitely more interesting question. Especially with losses against Purrity, Sanders, Brewster and "technical win" over Williamson.

    His chin makes him stoppable on good or bad day as well. Can you imagine him fighting prme Tyson? Wlad would be shitty scared, and unable to throw anything but jab, making it only easier for Tyson to cut the ring and finish him.

    Lennox had similar size, and unlike Wlad, he was not only limited to throwing jabs and ocassional hooks (look for example at the uppercuts Vitali was eating, I can't imagine Wlad surviving more than one or two even on the best night).

    I would favour prime Holyfield and Foreman over him as well. Both can lose a couple of rounds against Wlad, but they would probably get him eventually.
