True, but that's how Sanders always fought. Often enough, it worked. I tend to think that if the 2003 version of Sanders were fighting now, he could knockout most current top heavyweights aside from the K Bros and David Haye. The Sanders who beat Vlad would probably stop Povetkin, Arreola, and Stiverne within three rounds.
After Vlad lost to Sanders Vlad tried to get a rematch, but Sanders would not fight him. Vlad would have beaten Sanders in a rematch. As everyone knows, Vitali stopped Sanders later on. Ask Bobby Czyz about Corrie Sanders..........Sanders hardly ever trained because he was simply a natural athlete, it caught up with him later though as it did Ali, who was naturally gifted fighter, early in his career he did not have to train that much, but when he got older it started to catch up with him. Ali was never the same after the long layoff...............forced by politics..............
