Ruslan would would not agree that Wlad was afraid to let his hands go. His face took may right hands.......................
Not that convincing? How many rounds has Wladimir lost in his entire career? Even in his most boring fight vs. Ibragimov he didn't drop a single round. That's total utter domination.
Great post. He's come a long way with all the adversity, and has turned the corner with Manny. Wlad's twice the fighter he was when he got TKO'd by Sanders.
Hey, you forgot about Jameel Mccline. He was actually getting some hype as a hot prospect before fighting Wlad.
Pre-retirement Vitali, Prime Lewis, and Prime Tyson all steamroll Wlad early. Prime Ali and Holmes UD Wlad. Prime Holyfield vs Wlad is a pick 'em fight. Wlad defeats Bowe, Foreman, and Frasier by TKO.
2oolbs of frazier is too much for dr shits himself if the other fighter throws back and comes forward,wlad cant fight if the other guy comes forward and gets under his jab he runs backwards and if the other gets close enough he holds so how can he win if he does not throw punches smart arse
all this wlad is great **** is amazing lets see him against a top level fighter who will back him up cause when that happens his jab is ot as effective i admit if he is allowed to come forward and jab he looks good but come on how can everyone bang on about him when he so obviously scared to get hit
I think that's why most of us complimenting Wlad are saying "head to head". His size and reach make him almost impossible to get to. Yes, as I said in my previous post at 6'5 Lewis would have been able to get to Wlad and I would pick a prime Lewis to beat any version of Wlad. But look at Holyfield, there's not much Wlad can ever do in today's heavyweight landscape that would convince me he is a better fighter than a prime Evander. But at 6'1 or 6'2 Evander would have a hell of a time landing many punches. That's what makes Wlad so hard to beat, is the fact that he doesn tget hit.

Can somebody name me a fighter Wlad has fought that could be considered a very good fighter compared to past era's??? Byrd?? Probably the best argument you can make but really he was made for Wlad anyway. A blow up cruiser with NO power. Chagaev?? Nah Peter?? Hahahaha Thompson? Brewster? Imbragimov? Brock? Barrett? Rahman? Austin? Come on really??? What would Iron Mike do to these guys?? Or Frazier? Or Holmes? Or Lewis? Or Louis? Or Ali? The Klitschko's are great in an era of shitty heavyweights. Overweight, fat, undetermined, useless heavyweights. All these guys that get in the ring with either brother the only thing they are trying to do is survive none of them really seem to wanna win the fight. Since the Brewster lose the only fighters that IMO ever tried to win there fights with Wlad were Brock, Peter and Thompson.
Mike Tyson fights a blown up middleweight! So did Larry Holmes (Michael Spinks). In all the areas you can see it the way you did it. Spinks fights light middleweight at the amateurs! Tyson fights Holmes past his time (Holmes was out of shape and old). Ali fights Chuck Weppner, a journeyman who drops Ali and it could be continue ......
Put that old and out of shape Holmes in the ring with anyone off WALDO or VITLAYS resumes and see what happens - it's my guess he'd own all of them. You really spout some bollocks at times :rofl
