I was just thinking about this myself. He mostly only has a solid career, with no real big standout wins.
-Sultan Ibragimov? Well I've never thought anything good of Ibrgaimov, and I feel bad saying that cause he seems like a nice person. but his preformance against that ancient, ancient Holyfield was terrible and he still is someone who had a tough time with Ray Austin...ack. not one of Wlad's best performances anyway.
-Sam Peter? Honestly, I dont think so. Most people today think hes mostly just an unskilled plodder who wins fights via rabbit punching. Besides, he got a gift in his first fight with fat version James Toney, not a good sign. Plus getting dropped 3 times with McCline kind of downgraded his chin a bit in most people's eyes.
-Lamon Brewster? I thought about this one. Lamon was always one of my favorite heavyweights just because he was a cool guy and made exciting fights, and he did have some very decent wins. On the other hand, Brewster had some extremely close fights with guys like Kali Meehan and Krasniqi, who was pretty far ahead on points before Brewster got him with some massive shots...and then theres that whole deal with Brewster's eyeball falling out, and him coming off that tough loss to Liakhovich, and his layoff...I thought about him being #1, but I dont really think he showed up for the Klitschko rematch. on the other hand, Klitschko's match with Brewster was one of the most exciting heavyweight fights weve seen in the last 5 years.
-Chris Byrd? I think its him. Wlad's first win over him was better, Byrd was kind of older in the 2nd one. Byrd ended up being a champ for quite a while, even though he had some controversy in some of his title fights.
so what is Wlad's #1 win so far?
