    Hard to find any fighter in history that moves as well as Wlad and is as big.

    It's gonna be a shame when he retires, for us at least. Wlad will be remembered as a top 10 easily, if not closer to the top. How many heavyweights have dominated as long as him and been as vulnerable as he is? None I can think of. He has to be so good at what he does to avoid being smashed and suffer what he did when he was younger. I think Lennox is comparable in the sense he had a weak chin (or as weak comparatively), but he didn't move like Wlad does. Wlad just epitomizes everything right about how to punch, how to move, how to box. Not meaning to sound too Klittard-esque, but it will be a long time until we get to witness someone like him again. You could say the same about Floyd, but unless he fights Manny at ANY POINT, there will always be that question. There are no questions with Wlad. Can he come back from humiliating KO's and losses. Sure, no problem. Can he dominate heavy handed giants with a soft chin? Of course, watch his fights.

    Vitali is just as unique as Wlad in his own way.
    Especially his ugly style, I don't think we will ever see Vitali's style again, impossible to replicate.

    IMO. Vitali is second best behind Lewis, Wlad is third.

    Why did I think this thread was going to have a video like the following?
