    Since we already determined Wlad to be the best overall heavy right now, who do you guys think can make it to 12 rounds against a Wlad that is determined to win by KO? I would have said Peter, but I don't believe that anymore. I'm thinking maybe Valuev.

    An Old Oliver McCall would go the distance and has the power to stop Wlad but Wlad to definately spank him.

    Nobody and anybody, anyone in the division can get knocked out by Wlad including Peter and Valuev at any point, at the same time both Peter and Valuev could go the distance.

    i think that Klitscko will toy with McCall and give him a brutal punishment thant the refere will stop the fight, and McCall not beinmg hurt at least Klitshko became tired and McCall ko him late.

    I'm curious to see what kind of shot Valuev's enormous head can take. Chagaev definitely stunned him a little, but nothing near hurting him. Wlad's a much bigger and stronger fighter. He might be able to chop down the giant.

    id favor today's wlad to stop anyone just because it's the most likely outcome. 44ko in 49 wins = a 90% stoppage rate against solid competition. it's the smart pick like mayweather is by UD.

    that being said, probably valuev due to wlad having to punch upwards causing his power to lose some steam not to mention that comet he calls a head. but i wouldn't be surprised to see valuev stopped on his feet. peter would be the next choice although one has to wonder about his punch resistance nowadays. I 've seen the peter-wlad fight a few times and for the life of me i cant understand how peter survived. he took an awful beating after round 5. unbelievable determination in that fight.

    i would expect wlad to stop mccall and tua mainly because of their age and lack of recent quality opposition.

    it would probably look a lot like wlad-mercer. a brutal one-sided beating with the ref stopping it. although wlad's more cautious style would allow the fight to go into the later stages.

    chagaev fought a smart fight. but what he didn't do was land combinations something wlad could do rather easily. that's a fight id love to see if valuev gets back his wba trinket. either way, wlad would brutalize the giant's face. i'd lean towards a ref stoppage

    Maybe mccall. From what he have seen it does not seem that he can be kncoked out though there is still the chance that he will get beat up so brutally that we see a mercy stoppage in the later rounds.

    That would be an ugly fight. Valuev's face would take terrible punishment. He's so slow. He can get by against much smaller fighters, but a guy like Wlad is going to be big enough to really do damage. I'm curious to see what Lyachovich (have no idea how to spell this guy's name) is going to do against Valuev. He was very quick against Brewster and has power as well.

    Wlad KO's all Heavyweights - if he lands the right punch.

    I would love to see him KO the Giant.

    If McCall can get himself together that would be a high value fight. He has never been stopped and he has a granite chin. It would definately be a fight that would capture our imagination.:good
