    Wlad was in control for nearly every second, anticipating what his opponent would do, just like Ali was in many of his fights.
    That must have been some :wank: you were having!

      Tyson was more dominant(prime) and very few people put Tyson on Ali's level.

          Nah, he is more like a cross between Ray Leonard and Vinny Pazienza!

            There are no comparisons. Wlad fights NOTHING like Ali, he doesnt have the athleticism to dance and stick and move, the chin to stand in and exchange or the heart to go a full 15 or outlast fighters that would wax Wlad in 2 rounds (a la George Foreman)

              Your just not getting it are you. Tyson fought nothing like Ali, more like Frazier infact. It has nothing to do with dominance and who is on who's level.

              I'm saying that Wlad is fast, powerful, elusive and charismatic much like Ali.

                I figured you were referring to dominance, but if it's fighting style that is even more ridiculous. They are completely different. Didn't Wlad get KO'ed in 2 rounds by Corrie Sanders?

                  And unlike Wlad, Ali was entertaining to watch

                    I agree.

                    Wlad is exactly like Ali. He's got great charisma in the ring and isn't afraid of getting hit...

                    Oh wait..

                    Wlad flinches when someone throws a punch, whether they're half way across the ring or not. In fact, Wlad is so nervous he flinches every time someone extends their arm for a handshake. Just in case he gets caught on the chin and put down.

                      Posts like this make me realize what idiots some Wlad fans are.
