    Does Razor have a shot to get in with that smash?

    Razor does indeed have a shot but I see Wlad avoiding his power shots and outboxing him over the distance.

    Wlad knocks out Ruddock rather easily.

    Ruddock telegraphed the Smash like hell, Wlad would prepare fully for it and would win by knockout.

    Astute ****ysis, particularly the pros and cons.
    Which rated heavyweight did Wlad ever ko in the first third of a fight?

    One of most overrated HW's of all time along with Tua... I don't know why so many people favor him in h2h match ups. Wlad by knockout.

    This. He rarely threw a jab, slow, porous defence and no ring generalship to speak of. He got the **** beaten out of him by every very good fighter he fought. Basically a high level journeyman. I think he gets overrated because he was a Tyson opponent.

    :good he could hit i'll give him that... But he little in the way of ability, his power was the only thing that separated him from the journeyman of his day.

    I don't know why so many Wlad fanboys lost their s.hit seeing Wlad throw a left hook when Tua threw left hooks better , more fluid, faster and more frequently than Wlad.

    How many world titles did Tuas left hook win him??? How many titles did he defend with it? :think


    Nobody is questioning Tuas left hook, or knock out power.. So get out of here with that ****. That was a knock at the crowd who see Tua as a h2h god when lost nearly every big fight of his career.

    Exactly. You need more than that.

    People think Wlad is an unstoppable force now because he turned Pulev over with left hook and act like they never seen a left hook before in their lives.

    Wlad throws an excellent left hook(as I've seen you'd admit previously) and Wlad fans such as myself wish he would bring it out more. That was a treat for us.

    A prime Ruddock would have an excellent chance of beating Klitschko anytime between 1996-2004. From about 2005 onward however, Klit isn't taking any foolish chances and boxing Ruddock from a distance while tying him up on the inside to the victory.
