    I know it is unlikely, but if a middle aged Wlad beats Joshua, Parker, Wilder and then Fury would you call him the best ever? It is highly unlikely even Foreman and Vitali had visibly slowed down in their fourties. That is what would make it so impressive though. What do you think?

    It would completely depend on what those four went on to do.

    If they went on to have good careers then I believe (unpopular as this opinion may be around here) you could make a case for Wlad as the #1 HW of all time. Especially if one of them grabbed the HW division by the scruff and dominated for a dozen fights or so.

    On the other hand if they all turn out to be busts, all it would do is cement his place in the top 5 HW's.

    More of the question is IF he has enough left in the tank to beat these four.

    My guess is that the needle is on E and he'd be lucky to beat AJ.

    Wlad is losing this fight. He is done as far as boxing goes. When he became a father at 38 he was already softing , at this point he is doing AJ and Eddie a solid. It was a great run but it's over. Get these old guys out of boxing by any means.

    Parker and Wilder are easy wins for Wladimir.

    Joshua and Fury .. even a prime Wlad wouldn't be able to beat them.
