    No doubt about it, IMO...
    Bowe from the "first" Evander fight would take any version of Wlad.
    (Or for that matter either of the Klit Bros.)

    I thought I definitely saw a kind of panic in his eyes when he was getting sparked by Sanders. But maybe to some extent at least it has something to do with his clumsy look. Anyway to me it looks like he looses his composure when hit hard. You won't see it in Vitali for example.

    And yet Wladimir can avoid inside fight very easy.

    He certainly did against Brewster and Peter. I even seen him panic a bit against TOS. Lets face it, Wlad can't handle pressure or a big punch without having a panic attack or hitting the canvas.

    In sanders fight i saw "wtf, why is he hitting me back" look. The thing is that wlad did everything to lose that fight.

    I love how Riddick Bowe is built up to be this amazing fighter. Really guys... take a look at his career. Not that impressive. We all seen what Andrew Golota was able to do to him, twice. Andrew's jab completely dominated Bowe... that tells us the story right there.

    Yeah for sure. He beat crap out of Brewster even half dead. He was grasping air in round 1. This loss has nothing to do with Wlads panic or Brewster for that meter. Also he was pretty calm in peter fight. He got up each time easy and did what he had to do. Fear in Wlads eyes will stay urban myth for me until someone can provide any evidence.

    And based on what you concluded that Bowe such a great fighter? Based on fight with ex cruserweight(he lost one) whom he should have beaten much easer?

    :rofl I don't know Pony. Wlad looked pretty scared against Peter, clinching on for dear life most of the fight. There is a youtube video called "Wlad the octopussy", it chronicles the Peter fight pretty well.

    It's visible, what evidence do you need?

    Oh I just saw your location:D greetings from Poland, honestly I think Wlad is very good but below Vitali for sure. Face his flaws and enjoy his improvement:good

    They won't be able to.:good Wlad doesn't have "panic attacks" or any other crazy **** these morons make up. Honestly, these guys are borderline insane who come up with all of this nonsense.:lol: Even when Sanders was knocking the **** out of him, Wlad was calmly getting up and fighting back (with no legs)... which he shouldn't have been... but up until that point he had never experienced being hurt before so he didn't know how to react.

    You are right about the Brewster fight... something was simply wrong with Wlad that night. Brewster himself said directly after the fight that Wlad was gasping for air in the 2nd round. Brewster hadn't even laid a glove on him at that point. Against Peter Wlad didn't panic AT ALL. As a matter of fact... it was his calmness under pressure that kept him safe in the 10th round when Peter had him hurt. Even though that was all kicked off by a punch in the back of the head, followed up by several others... just like in the 5th round when the bogus knockdown was nothing more than a haymaker landing to the back of the head. Yet... Wlad, kept himself composed... and dominated every other round of the fight. We saw that Wlad could take Peter's best legal punches in the 3rd round when Sam hit Wlad flush with a huge left hook just like he landed on Jeremy Williams. Wlad didn't even blink. Larry Merchant even pointed it out afterwards.

    All of this "Wlad has a glass jaw", "Wlad has panic attacks every time he gets hit or gets pressure", ect.... it's all bull****. Even the people who say this nonsense don't believe it.

    I don't remember Lewis iniating 97 clinches in any of those 3 fights, like Wlad did against Peter. Wlad actually jumped in the air at one point to clinch Peter and make sure he didn't land a punch on him.
