Right now who gives Wlad his toughest fight?

Haye.

His speed and power make him not just the biggest threat, but the ONLY threat.

Wlad makes clown shoes of Povetkin and the like.

 

He is slow on his feet for sure, but he's a great counterpuncher with a lot of power. Could be interesting.

 

:deal

 

Pulev has no power and he can't outbox Wlad, same with Fury plus a glass jaw, so I'd say Haye and maybe hard punching glass jaws like price and wilder.

 

GDM you make a lot of sense. Pulev but needs 3 more fights, and may not have the power or boxing skills to get the job done.
Wilder but would have to attack like Saunders did or Wald will just out box him with his left, also needs a few more fights and not guys like Harrison!! Jennings? Povetkin? don't think either have the power or skills needed yet?
I'd like to see Haye fight Vatali as he's slowing down and don't seem to have the power he had? but Haye would not be able to run like he did with Wald.Thats about the best fight for Vatali to retire on?
I don't think Haye has a chance against Wald as that last fight will haunt him forever.
Solis needs a few fights to see where hes at to even consider him.
Wach was so tough but did not fire back and looked too slow so just took a beating.
Most of the up and coming heavyweights lack fights against each other and don't fight very often to get that experience.

 

I can't believe some of the responses here....Wilder? (was put on ***** street by jabs from Wlad in sparring), Tom Dallas? He's a glass jawed Brit that was destroyed by Price (who's also glass jawed).....

People really have no clue what they are talking about here.

 

I honestly think an in shape, motivated Chisora.

Which is why Wlad ducked him twice and Manny Steward told him to avoid him :good

 

Vitali
Povetkin
Haye
Fury
Pulev
Arreola
Wilder
Cunningham
Boystov

 

Aids or cancer but Wlad TKO's both.

 

Povektin.
Wlad can be destroyed with timing and latteral movement. If Povektin comes in close to 100% he's going to cause him serious difficultly.
Wlad never fought at elite level throughout his career and lost to the toughest guys he faced.
If he fights Povektin later this year it will be almost 3 years since he fought somebody dangerous.
Wlad is done.

 

:yep

 

Solis has the skills and necessary power as it is.

 

1. Odlanier Solis
2. David Haye
3. Amir Mansour

IN THAT ORDER

 

Dominick Guinn or Bermane Stiverne.
Guinn has chin,power,some speed (he's almost this eras Puritty)
and Stiverne has the type of power that would make Wlad fight nervous.
mansour I have only seen like 3 fights. I've seen enough
of Povetkin, Helenius, Arreola etc... to believe they have no chance.
Solis will not get in shape, point blank....nuff said.
I could only imagine Wlad landing on Price or Wilder, though
either could clip him, just not likely.
I personally like Jennings but I'm afraid he might be a little short
on power. Malik I believe can probably outbox most everyone but
It's probably not a good idea to solely box against Wlad. Wlads
so seasoned now.

 

No it's not. Wlad eats counter-punchers for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and desert. Wlad's best asset is his ability to control range and his superb jab. How can anyone think Solis even has a chance. Solis had a better chance and still has a better chance against his brother who is more conducive to being counter-punched. Their fight showed that but Solis knee was messed up and gave way.

A reasonable big guy that can fight moving forward and punch well is the best bet. I don't know much about Pulev but if he fits the description he's a possibility. Same goes for Povetkin. It's not as if this guys have great chances, but nobody out there does. Arreola also could be interesting if he gets in shape and is able to get past the jab or at least take the jab.
