Nazim Richardson: "Wladimir is one of the greatest HWs of all time"

If he didn't have a chin he would have been done when he was an amateur! Whenever he's been knocked down, he always got up. Unlike some other heavyweights who became champs.

 

I must agree the brothers should get more credit than they deserve and are getting. The way they move for their size esp. Wladimir in his last fight was simply amazing a guy for his size. Is not their fault they are making all their fights look easy.

 

I am a proponent that Wlad does have a Chin.
Just go back and look at his first loss against Purity. Who is a fighter that either KO'd you or loss on points. The ref stopped that fight in the 11th. Wlad was hurt but not out. I was surprised by the stoppage and personally would have let it go on.
His other 2 losses I think came from having
Hepatitis C. There were hints at the time that something wasn't right but they would never come out and say what. But if you have a look at Hollyfields career during the time he had Hep. C the similarities are right there. That is that he was fighting just fine then all of a sudden it was like his gas tank went straight to E.
I would pick Vlad over Ali and Foreman.
Ali because the rope a dope isn't allowed anymore. IE the ref will just call a TKO on you.
And Foreman was just to wild. Wlad being taller, stronger, faster, and a better boxer.
Now Frasier on the other hand. Frasier was the smaller man to begin with. His style was
movement with work rate. (Arreola could have had a chance if he just dropped 30 pounds and mimicked Frasier.) I am not saying Frasier would have beat him but I give the better chance between those 3 men.

And after all this is said.
He is the best Super Heavy Weight ever. IE he and his brother are not heavy weights.

 

Oh, I was unaware that leg injuries can only be fixed with steroids.

I can't see any way that an individual who boxes for a career could use that steroid to his advantage in coming out of the injury better than ever before.atsch
