Wlad would not have those belts if it was not for Vitali. Vitali protected Wlad from risky fights by taking the fights himself. Vitali is better than Wlad. He always has been. WLad better to retire if he wants to protect his weak chin. He can't hide behind Vitali anymore. SO I guess Wlad will just stick to fighting non risky fights for a few years and retire. You nuthuggers have got our of hand again. Wlad had better be careful if he fights Arreola. Arreola has a plan that just might work. He said he knows if he hits Wlad one good time on the chin Wlad will fall apart.
Derrick Thats what Haye, Thompson, Peter, and Rahman said. Problem is they cant hit him one good time.
Chris Byrd was the man in early 2006. Vitali had retired months earlier and Brewster lost. By beating Byrd, Wlad became the top dog of the division. A position that was confirmed when he beat Sutan Ibragimov -WBO champ-, Ruslan Chagaev -WBA champ- and David Haye -WBA champ-. Wlad reigns since 2006, just a Larry Holmes reigned since 1978.
lol, Byrd was never the #1 heavyweight. Hilarious. Ring gave him the belt for beating Chagaev. I think Vitali's run when he came back is more impressive, beating the likes of Peter, Arreola, Solis, Johnson, Gomez without any trouble is much more impressive.
Wladimir is to be respected Wlad is an ATG . ATG. Vitali is a Ped Using Cheating Scum ****. Vitali's only advantage over Wlad is a chin
