    Schulz had a controversial decision against Foreman. Was he in the Ring's Top10 when he fought Wlad, in 1999?

    Thanks.

    I don't think so, Schulz retired for a few years and Wladimir was Schulz's first fight back.
    I think....

    Schulz had a 1 year layoff prior to the Klitschko fight because of problems with his back. As far as I remember he was ranked #12 by the IBF before the injury happened.
