    Nonsense.

    2. Yes, he did. Compare the boxers Bruno outjabbed (Bonecrusher, Witherspoon and Lewis) to the boxers that Wlad outjabbed. Wlad is better than Bruno, but Bruno had the better jab.

    It's not so much that he beat Toney, but he outboxed him. I'm sure being a natural Heavy helped Peter but he was beating Toney to the punch and Toney's defense looked like **** against the supposed "one dimensional" Peter.

    I would add McCall (the first one, not the sobbering one from second fight) to that 50/50 list. He had that cast iron chin, and a powerful right hand. He was just quick enough too land it too.

    Absolutely wrong. Wlad's jab is faster, more accurate & I believe it's heavier too.

    I'd favor Golota over Wlad.

    He was just too good in his prime and he'd make Wlad fold like a deck of cards...

    Again, against what calibre of opponent? Bruno's jab was tested against ATGs, Wlad's hasn't been tested against ATGs.

    Prime Tua and McCall may crack Wlad's chin, Wlad is not as much
    offensive as Levis, he could have serious problems with Grant.

    Tyson and Holyfield from the time they fought Levis were really past
    the best and they should not be a serious treat for current Wlad.

    I think Wlad would have the same amount of loses as Lewis.

    What about Wlad vs Akinwande! It would be a match to see who Mills Lane DQ's first for holding!

    The version that Lewis fought was actually fat and inactive. I could still see a young Wlad doing something stupid like pushing too hard for a KO and gassing out for a frustrating loss.

    How is it fair to compare a prime Wlad against Lewis at all stages of his career? In the real world, you don't get to be in your prime when you face your opponents.

    It's worth wondering how a young Wlad would have fared against Lewis's opposition in the early 1990s. Did Lewis face tougher opponents than Ross Purrity?
