A street fight is way more dangerous than a boxing match. Obvious fact. The point is wlad is fighting nobodies. Boxing is a joke when this is allowed.
I would not count on it. DOn't be shocked if Wlad finds a way to take on another bum in Europe. I just don't see him fighting Povetkin. Povetkin would be another boring jab and grab UD for WLad anyway. WLad win never fight Fury either. He already has made that clear.
That's a fair enough point to make, and one which I more or less agree with. Had Wlad attempted to mount a comeback in the mid 90s he'd have had a much tougher time of it, and would probably have been decked again at some point long before he was able to successfully implement the style he now fights with. But regardless of the route he took to get there, the Wlad of today is a significantly more effective boxer than the one of the pre-Brewster days. Not necessarily in his physical prime, but a much more composed, consistent and harder to beat fighter, due to stylistic changes he and Steward employed to minimise the weaknesses shown in his defeats. You can say that was due to a weak era, allowing him a relatively risk-free environment in which to rebuild, but I don't think it detracts from his achievement any, since it's the end product that's ultimately the most important thing. Coming back from any sort of defeat like that to become a dominant force is something worth applauding.
