In 20 years time it will be Wlad who

[Randall_Hopkirk]

with all due respect to wlad,he's screwed.this era will not be kind to him.he's in my opinion a crossroads champ,maybe if there was no cruiser division he'd have some comp in haye and solis[an in shape solis],there's still the possibility,but i doubt it very much.

Larry Holmes came five years too late, otherwise he'd be rightly recognized as one of the top 3 HW's of all time. He beat what was in front of him and did it convincingly. I still yearn for Wlad to put in a Holmes-Cobb-esque performance; total destruction but with skill.

[WLAD OWNS]

His losses pretty much negate any chance of being an all time great. He needs to unify the belts and defend them like 8 or 9 times to get recognition at this point as a great heavyweight.

That's a moronic statement, a lot of all time greats have had tough losses earlier in their career's. I have used this example before, but I will use it again, Manny Pacquiao had tough KO losses to journeyman earlier in his career and nobody ever brings that up, I already consider Pacman an all time great despite those losses. I am sick of hearing haters constantly bringing up Wlad's losses, he made Brewster quit in 6 rounds in the rematch and you and I both know that Wlad would KO Sanders and Purrity in rematches.

yeah,i say if he destroys every titleist,i mean just blast to hell in his unification road,i think he can still be considered an all time great,only if he does that and starts his bum of the month club too
