    Disagree.

    I see Wlad's size, power and skill being more of a problem for the all-time-greats that most seem to think.

    Wlad is too big, strong, fast and skilled to be manhandled, even by the ATGs, as you say he would.

    Great video. Just call Wlad *The Fireman*, cause he's going all over the world putting out flames.

    But that Wlad was way more impressive and fun to watch. He was explosive and showed skills along with it. I'd rather watch Pre-Steward Wlad any day. He destroyed mofos in exciting fashion.

    Now there is some truth to this whether people want t admit it or not.

    ROck was stopped by James "Eats Out" Toney in three rounds right before facing Wlad.

    When Rock shows up to fight, he is capable of being a solid heavyweight champion, the problem with him is he is never focused. He is considered by many a waste of talent.

    Wlad has beatn Peter, Brock, Ibragimov, and they were all undefeated. Name the unbeatn fighters and past or presents champs Peter or Haye has beatn at heavy?

    It was stopped due 2 a headbutt. Rahman was stopped by Toney? Try reading.

    it's the time they (K2) start, so to expect of them to fight in the early years the top contenders - it's silly. any fighter has to have his time, at least a couple of years, to grow up as a ring and division player

    yeah because all the up and coming prospects are being mauled by klitschko

    Brock
    Ibragimov
    Thompson- not really an up and comer but really came into the spotlight all of a sudden
    Brewster
    Peter
    Williamson


    and the veterans
    Byrd
    McCline
    Rahman
    Austin
    Mercer
    Botha
    Barrett


    he has cleaned out most of the division

    Brock wasn't that good, neither was Peter. It also bears repeating that Sam Peter was more cleanly wiped out by Vitali.

    Tony Thompson is what he is. A Bruce Seldon from the 90s type fighter. A good gate keeper but not an up and comer.

    Davaryll WILLIAMSON?! Touch of **** Williamson? Okie doke.

    Iggy was a good fitghter Wlad beat. That said would you want to see that fight again?

    Brewster was coming off a loss and a detached retina if you want to count that then hey, more power to ya. It was good for Wlad to get his win back but hey, Brewster had already been touched up at that point.


    That's an amazing list. I mean...wow.


    Sure did. A bunch of C grade heavies, Wlad cleaned em out.

    I'm not one of those guys who thinks Wlad is bad or predicts him to lose every single "Wlad vs P4P Great Heavy" fights but the division is awful.

    Wlad beats past champs presents champs and undefeated fighters. What else can he do?
