How many of you appreciate the class, intellect and ability this guy brings to the sport of boxing? A guy who has a phd in sports science, who battled back from being written off after being defeated and knocked down several times early in his career? Faced adversity with grace. Consistently faced the best of his division without the trash trashing, , wife beating, ducking DUI'ing, or making his opponents jump through hoops to come in into the fight on his terms weight drained to corpse level. How many of you truly appreciate the intellect, the poise and utter domination in and outside of the ring in one of the greatest HW champs to grace the sport? When this guy retires, he may not have developed parkinson's to feel sorry for him, he may not have thrown away hundreds of dollars in strip joints, he may not have beaten his wife to a pulp or get arrested to get street cred from walmart looting fanboys, he may not have been caught using masking agents, but please I urge you all to appreciate this guys talents and give him the credit and respect he deserves for being a role model and for dominating the HW division for over a decade.
Unfortunately he will be forgotten by many. People of the world today have a negative bias and only seem to remember the bad about anyone, of course until they're dead. Wlad was a great and humble champion who reigned impressively until King Tyson Fury arrived to dethrone the old king with a combo of power punches to the chin.
A top 5 heavy of all time who can become the greatest of all time if he beats fury, wilder and Joshua. In my book he will be Nr 1. he has already what 25-2 in title fights. Thats crazy. One of the biggest punchers of all time with A great defense. Most dominant heavy of all time. War wlad!!!
