Yeah, it's ashame he's not more active, although I don't think that's really his fault.

He can't be too active otherwise he's taking a greater risk of revealing his steroid cycle.

Wlad has already fought 52 fights professionally after an extensive amateur career. he fights 2-3 fights a year...lately every six months...lewis fought once in 03, once in 02, twice in 01, 3 times in 2000, twice in 99. no different than Wlad. Holyfield fought twice in 99, once in 98, twice in 97, twice in 96, no different than Wlad. Tyson fought twice in 91, 3 times in 90, twice in 89 no different than Wlad. CHagaev has not fought since April. Maskaev in almost one year. to single out Wlad for activity is ridiculous. He is not much different than most guys with belts. it is too hard to get fights made, and vs. good competition for most guys top to bottom in weight classes. Instead of singling Wlad out, we should be congratulating him and Ibragimov for scheduling what hopefully will be the first unification bout in ten years at heavyweight.

atsch the posters that critizize VLAD seem to be suffering from some kind of COLLECTIVE DELUSION ! they seem to think he must do alot more then any champ in history to get the same respect ! And i agree that his LOOK has something to do with it !:deal

His LOOK (white) could have something to do with it with the USA press and some US fight fans. They tend to give black fighters the benefit of the doubt more often. Although they must be increasingly questioning this logic as of late.

However, I believe Wlad needs to increase his activity to become a recognized star and all time great. A case of more exposure leading to more people realizing how good he is.

Its not about color, the man lacks personality. In fact every heavyweight champ lacks any type of personality, and dont fight that exciting at all, aside form Wlad.
