    When he fought Mariusz Wach in late 2012 just less than a month after Steward did he looked very motivated. Against a opponent who was bigger and taller than him I haven't see him be as active and aggressive as he was that night.

    By the end, yeah. But he gave Brewster the business before that, worked him over proper. Too vigorously, in fact, as he totally blew his wad.

    That’s why Wlad was better for the Fury fight. He’d probably have only lost to Fury and possibly Ortiz or Joshua at that point.

    An easy mistake to make, particularly for inexperienced, younger men.

    Wlad should have beaten Fury. Even at his age.

    Given the fact that a Joshua with nearly two years of more experience went life and death with a 41 year old Wlad coming out of almost 2 years of retirement, I would doubt that.

    Lmao at Luis Ortiz beating Wlad. Wlad of right now would beat any Ortiz with ease.
