Wladimir does what he does with perfect technical proficiency, but he is still pretty basic. Amazing ring generalship however.
      That works both ways, he is extremely athletic for being 6'6" 240lbs if he was Chambers size he may be much fatser. Wlad doesnt showcase half his skills because of his defensive nature. Wlad has the better jab, better left hook and better straight right hand.

        extremely athletic? hmm.. not quiet... there are 7'0 men in the NBA who are more athletic...

        but you're right, he is a physical specimen. Amazing power.

          I didnt say he was the most athletic for his size I said extremely athletic. Just because there are people more athletic doesnt mean he isnt. Eddie is a good skilled fighter, but it wont be enough and Im afraid Wlad might ruin him.

            definitely, if Wlad was Chambers size he wouldn't be dominant.

              Agree?

              Yes he prolly is.

                Yes Chambers is, along with povetkin.

                Wald doesnt get hit, but he aint that skilled. Te only thing he have going i s his 1-2. hence why guys like Sanders KHTFO.

                Chambers is way more skilled and faster than Wlad.

                Wlad size heps im alot!!!!

                  I voted yes because of his technical ability. But techinical ability is only one aspect of skill.

                    skilled yes, but skill isn't everything. cus damato said that will can overcome skill. chambers is like chris byrd but not as mentally strong, byrd could take take more of a beating and still keep fighting than chambers can

                      How does 'basic' conflict with having 'skill'?

                      Wlad is the most skilled, followed by Chagaev and Chambers.
