    What? Wlad took 2 years off, came back at 41 and had AJ down in a toe-to-toe slugfest, win aged incredibly for Fury.

    How is losing to Joshua by stoppage a positive for Wlad? I'd say that loss has aged very badly

    Losing to a 27 year old AJ at 41 after a two-year lay-off is nobody’s shame, especially when Wlad had him down and hurt badly multiple times. Name one other 40+ year old fighter that performed like that against someone anywhere near AJ’s level.

    No chance. Better question is if they can sneak into the HoF.

    We aren't talking about a prime version though, Wlad was 39 against Fury and past prime. The Joshua loss suggest beating that version of Wlad isn't such a big deal.

    Pacquiao over Thurman must be close

    It also hurts because they never fought eachother when they were decent.
