    He got a draw, it's on the books. He failed to impress. Get over it.

    Going after Wlad's opposition just because I have K2 avatar doesn't change **** about Scott not being a world calibre fighter. Deal with it.

    Assuming that the judges are competent and use the standard criteria for scoring rounds...

    He'd outpoint Wilder, Chisora, Charr and Stiverne pretty easily.

    Haye, like him or hate him, is simply too athletic and too good overall for Malik.

    Fury and Price are too big to allow Scott to control distance and dictate the pace. They'd both UD him.

    He just beat (despite the official "draw") a world caliber prospect...so, yeah.

    amazing to see his skill level at that weight..

    everyone is slow and prodding at HW.

    Objectively, Scott is a bit too crafty for either of those two.

    In this era, sure. But that's not saying much at all. This heavyweight era sucks, save for the Klitschko's.
     
  9. He's pretty good yeah but seriously lacking power.

    well, Arreola was his sparring partner and hasn't been compelled to fight him.
