      Oh he would? Like he would beat Sanders, Brewster, purity? Oh right, he didn't. But you can find an excuse for that.
      He was young then and fought like David Price (i.e. an idiot - throwing too many punches, poor shot selection, questionable conditioning...).

      You'll miss Wladimir when he's gone.

        While true, it depends on what the point is your trying to make. If your point is, the divisions talent pool would have been awful/pedestrian, then I agree. If your point is in some way trying to commend the Kilts or speak on their talent like their domination of the division is actually commendable, then I disagree.

              He lost those fights, but came back and now hes been near enough invicible for 9 years. The Brewster rematch showed that.

              Manny pac lost 2/3 fights before Hatton, cotto fight.

              Ali lost, Lewis lost to rahman and Oliver macall.

              That's Heavy weight boxing mate, Facts are Wladimir is fighting guys who are Far more Athletic than they were in Alis and Holmes period.

              Put it in perpective, Ali got floored by henry cooper who was under 200 pounds and 6ft.

              If you morphed Cooper to fight Wladimir now it would make Haye Wlad, or Mormeck Wlad look like a fair fight in comparison.

              Face it, The 3 best heavyweights ever in actual terms is 1. WLAD 2 Vital 3 Lennox Lewis.

              Those 3 guys would destroy everyone.

                    I was high when I wrote this. (Actually I just copy and pasted from ESB)

                    Wladimir is a great champion.
