Which fight do you think most when you think of Wlad? When I think Tarver, I think of Jones vs Tarver II. RJJ: Jones vs Toney Hopkins: Hopkins vs. Trinidad De La Hoya: De la Hoya vs Quartey Fight stands out most to you?
The first Peter fight....he was knocked down, but got back up and took care of business. He fought through the adversity..something that so many others said he couldn't do. This was at a time when Peter was seen as THE most dangerous fighter, most powerful, and Wladimir really needed a win...and yet he chose to fight Peter.
for me its the sam peter or lamon brewster, second fights. both times he showed how much he's improved as a fighter and dominated both fights over guy's who'd given him some real trouble a few years back.
Sanders! Wlad: "There ain't gonna be no rematch! I'll let my big brother take care of that nasty golfer!"
Wlads been dominante for years now and all vredit to him. But every time i fink of him SANDERS immdiatlely comes to mind. And the fact he never re-matched him.
Samuel Peter. It was a great fight and with Emanuel Steward Wlad becomes a more wellrounded fighter and Wlad takes care of himself since this fight.
No. Wlad wants the rematch! But Sanders dropped the WBO belt and wants to fight for the WBC. Wlad wants to rematch Puritty. He wants to fight him after he loss to Sanders.
I'd have to pick between the following: Samuel Peter I - Knocked down but came back to dominate Samuel Peter II - Total domination that showed how much he's improved Lamon Brewster II - See above Ray Mercer - Brutal ass whoppin' Chris Byrd I - Brutal ass whoppin' Chris Byrd II - Even More Brutal ass whoopin' Ruslan Chagaev - TKO'd undefeated WBA Champ for unification Sultan Ibragimov - Shutout against an undefeated opponent Calvin Brock - Brutal KO Tony Thompson - Brutal KO Eddie Chambers - Brutal KO All for different reasons of course. I voted for Chris Byrd.
When he met Sanders and Brewster, he had over 40 fights and was a World Champion, so dont start with that contender bull ****. Wouldnt he as a champion have a re-match clause with Sanders, same with Brewster. But instead gets his brother to fight them. Wlad has been a great World champion, no doubt about it. But the fact is he will be remebered for these losses and no re matches
