Agreed, Wlad was in panic mode the whole fight. It was the only time Wlad took punishment and ended up winning. Though he did look fragile doing it. It's hard to pick a favorite, between Sanders, Peter, and Brewster. Though the Brewster fight was the one that had made me a believer that if your tough, and are willing to stand in and take the punishment. You may be able to look within yourself to find a way to win. Wlad had every physical advantage coming into that fight, but it was his lack of mental toughness that failed as usual when the going got tough. Brewster's heart and toughness won him that fight that night, it definitely wasn't his boxing skills.
The Mercer fight is my favorite. Great offensive display. I enjoy all Klitschko fights. Hope Wlad fights Haye this year. Haye will disappear shortly after.
Wlads best fight was the one vs. Schulz. Schulz wasn't yet done, and Wlad did something he never did before or after that way - he countered Schulz moves with perfectly timed counter and preemptive punches. If he would have conserved and optimized that style, he could have become a heavyweight Roy Jones. Unfortunately, he didn't.
Mercer was in a coma. The best fight would be when he had heart to fight off the canvas onto a victory.
