    If Wlad had a great chin he would be a monster. Based on his size and skill, one of the best heavies of all time. But that chin of his is a monster handicap.

      if quitali had more faith in his chin then maybe he would have gutted out the final 3 rounds against that undersized slapper byrd and won. he was scared to get ko'd after losing round 9. maybe he would have beat byrd and had a meaningful win over an in-shape, young, top ten contender.

      maybe.

        Augie Sanchez could have been a world Champion and made title defences.

        Junior Jones would have been a beast and defende his first title many times.

        Rafael Marquez would still have his world title.

              IT WASN'T, AND FOREMAN WASN'T A ONE SHOT OR EVEN A TWO SHOT KO ARTIST ANYWAY, ESPECIALLY AT THAT STAGE IN HIS CAREER.

              MAYBE HE WAS AGAINST SCRUBS, BUT NOT FIGHTERS ON THE LEVEL OF MOORER.

                Hearns would have been considered a top 10 p4p fighter, no doubt. He would have been able to stand up to Leonards punches and beaten him by a decently wide margin, and he would have never lost to Barkley. Hagler is a tough one to say.

                seriously, if he had a better chin, he would have went through almost evey fighter he faced. its kind of crazy how much that chin woulda helped.

                    Terrible Terry Norris ,bad ass anyway IMO one of my favourite fighters aswell if he had a grannit chin he who knows how great he would have been ,a HOF ayway and arguably the best 154 pound fighter ever

                    IMO of coarse

                      he was dead tired in both fights.

                      wlad was nervous and kept throwing more shots to get purrity off of him. dude was stumbling all around the ring.

                      wlad having not too much confidence in his chin and being so nervous may have played a role in him getting so tired against lamon, but he surely was fatigued.
