the range to choose from is kind of weird bro. I picked 11-25, but closer to 25 maybe even a bit higher now that I think about it.

I don't really like any of your options, too wide a gap.

I'd say 20-30. I can't see how he gets any higher. Maybe he belongs higher, but his level of competition doesn't warrant any higher a ranking.

Heeb

Probably top 15.

TBH I don't like ranking and never rank fighters myself.

IMO though Wladimir is one of the greatest HW's of all-time who is just suffering because of the lack of big name opponents in his era. He can't really control that and can only fight who is in front of him.

With that said, and I have been saying this for years, that I find it hard to favor any of the ATG's/HOF fighters over him.

The only other HW's that I can see beating either Klit are Ali and Lewis.

RurouniYume

I say 26-50. It's not because Wlad isn't a great boxer or the greatest boxer currently, because I feel he is and I like the guy. Unfortunately his era is perhaps the worst and he has yet to be truly challenged in the ring. I dont think the era should make the fighter but unfortunetely thats the case

Alx.

25+ because of the level of competition :\

Wlads in my top 15

IronDanHamza

Maybe between 16-20. Maybe.

Probably more in the early 20's range.
