    The magical word “context” again. Go ahead and list the second best five or six fight streak.

    I was comparing those wins to Wlad's. Saying that Fury, AJ and Rematch Dubois won't be considered great wins compared to Povetkin, Haye, Ibragimov, Chagaev etc makes no sense in this context.

    Also, I disagree with your premise anyway. Becoming a Two Division Undisputed Champion and the first Undisputed Heavyweight Champion in decades by defeating both of the two best fighters of his era whom outweighed him by some 40 lbs, isn't going to be looked at as a great feat in a historical context? That's just silly.
