Is Wlad top 5 heavyweight of all time

Who was wlad facing four years into his career? Monte Barrett? Paea Wolfgram? David Bostice? Come on this is too funny.

 

Patterson wasn't a bum and in fact he would have beaten the vast majority of Wlad's comp. Cleveland Williams wasn't a bum either.

(in actual fact that you would even call boxers bums tells me you're a loser with no respect for the sport)

 

This. :-(

 

This is my take on it too.

 

Most first round knockouts in a carrer: 1.Young Otto (42) 2. Tiger Jack Fox (30) 3. Jack Dempsey (26)Get your facts straight.
Dempsey doesn't have the most first round knockouts.

 

:yep 180 pounder

 

It doesnt take a genius to realise who's the nr1 guy in the division now, and frankly, i dont see why not fighting the number 2 be a problem since Dempsey also never fought Wills and Johnson ducked not only the number 1 contender, but also the next 3 best in his title reign.
Subjective or not, it is pretty clear that WK's resume and title reign is more impressive then the guys mentioned above.

 

No patterson wouldn't :deal

Monte was able to knock Tua down, get some respect for the guy.

 

:yep Sure he would .

 

what youre saying means absolutely **** all.

Tyson won the WBC title in less then 2 years since his debut, that does not make him better then Ali and neither does it make him a top5 HW.

 

Patterson was KO'd before.
And Cleveland was ok at best.

No Patterson would be in the lhw division, maybe in cruiserweight.

Bum is relative to non bums. When I say bum it simply means they aren't very good.

 

It's about context Cael, Wlad did not face Lewis or Holyfield then someone said he was a Four year professional. Ali faced a HOF at just 22 years of age, if you considered wlad to be in the top 5 it's ridiculous. Louis & Ali are in a different class.

 

if he does as says, yes top 5.

 

Would be a cruiserweight, you can't go by that, you have to go by how they did in their era, and the quality of comp. Who did Wlad beat that was so amazing? Did I miss something? I can't think of a single fighter he fought that I would consider all that good.
