Is Wlad's power Foremanesque?

No. It's lewisesque. Strong jab monster right hand.

 

No

 

How can a 247-pound man with a perfect technique hit as hard as a 215 pounder from the 70s who telegraphs his punches. Impossible!

 

Hell no

 

No. If anything his power is now being overrated. Wlad was not safety first against Peter, hit him with a lot of clean hard shots...yet the bout ended in the 10th.

Foreman had raw power, they didn't look like they were hard or hurt...

 

Foreman vs. Peter would be a brutal mismatch. The crowd would be amazed at the punches catching him flush and Foreman would pile on the pressure, stopping Peter in about 4.

 

why should it not?????

Because he is white and european?????

 

how dare you with your racist hints.......:rasta

 

:good

 

Sure. Why not? Foreman was a bomber who rarely offed a mutha' with one shot... W.K. KO's folks with a good two to three well placed shots himself... The power is close / similar...

MR.BILL

 

I'd say it's a level below Lewis, If he had a few more early stoppages I'd agree.
From Butler in 95 to 03 Lewis only went past 6 rounds 5 times in 17 fights (loss included of course).

Wlad's more about wear them down with sustained pressure/power rather than 1 big shot.

 

And at what time of the bout does this take place? The latter rounds after he has already broken them down...

Wlad has very good power, but his one punch power is overrated.

 

Funny how you pick the heaviest weight Wlad has ever been and match it up against one of the lightest Foreman listed weights around.

Why not the 220 pound wlad against the 225 pound Foreman that Knocked out Joe Frazier or Ken Norton in 2 rounds a piece dropping them 9 times in total?

 

Wlad appears to a have tremendously powerful jab. We would see earlier kos if Wlad would open up and let his punches fly. He fights guarded and smart. Foreman had the power, and the chin, but not the conditioning that Wlad has. They power used strategies that take advantage of their respective strengths.
