    A lot lately. Maybe 10 fights.

    I only pick Louis marciano and Dempsey over him below 200lb but if Usyk moves up and beats fury wilder or Joshua...he moves ahead of Dempsey and Marciano

    Thank you! he looks stiff ,and as Robert Ungurean said you take these guys out of the safe zone they panic. Wlad to me is overrated to death. I watched Joe Louis and Primo Carnera recently and I believe Louis would do they same thing to Wlad only quicker since Primo had a better chin

    Actually primo didn’t have a better chin. Primos chin was not good . He got floored by 195lb light hitting sharkey. 200lb Haynes knocked him out.

    Wlad got stopped by purity and Brewster due to stamina issues, not chin related. Sanders knocked him out early, but he is one of the hardest hitting heavyweights ever who weighed 240lb and was a southpaw. From 2006-2016 no one floored wlad. He took an enormous uppercut from 250lb Joshua without going down. Wlad never got knocked down by sub 200lbers like primo did


    Chagaev is a 6’2 225lb skilled southpaw who was undefeated, also a decorated amateur...what’s so funny? What 6’2 225lb skilled southpaw did louis ever beat? He refused to fight Bettina because he was a southpaw.


    Wlad entire legacy destroys carnera in every Single way, and their isn’t a single tool that carnera displays on film that’s even close to wlad.

    Henry Armstrong would stop Lomachenko. Of this I have very little doubt.
