    He'll probably be number 2 all time when he's done. Funny how ppl claimed he was done after the Brewster bout.

      Dempsey's "reign" was 5 fights in 6 years before a loss to Tunney.

      As far as dominance goes, he has nothing on Wlad. In fact, he held the title hostage.

        He has only been the HW champ for four years.

          How long was David Haye the HW champ for?

            Hopefully he'll be undisputed HW champ soon.

                  What's more interesting to me is how many more fights will Wladimir have till he calls it a day I don't see him carrying on into his 40's although with the current crop of heavyweights about I suppose aslong as he has his reflexes and remains fit it could be plausible.

                    I think Wlad is still peaking his prime. IMO he has a year in prime.

                    In that year he should try to fight the best guys out there - Fury, Povetkin, Pulev and possibly rematch Haye (if Haye gets serious and active).
                    If he beats all those guys he'll be steady in upper top10 ATG HWs.
