    Wlad surpasses Holmes...

    As the 2. Longest holder of the heavyweight title. Or does he?

    Wlad has only been recognized as the champ since his win over Chagaev. Is it unfair to put him up there as number 2 behind Louis? Or are the ABC bodies bs?

    I just want Wlad to fight Fury if Fury can find a way to beat Haye.

        There's a big difference from being a title holder and "The" Champion.

          abc bodies suck, but wlad's still a beast.

          unfortunately, you can't give him credit for a lineal championship until chagaev.

            I only count the Ring when it comes to this thing. ABCs are BS.

              I could surpass Holmes if I was fighting guys with cancer, grandads, fatboys who gass in a few rounds, those 70 pounds lighter than me or unranked cherrypicked virtual amateurs.

              f Wlad was fighting Holmes opponents he'd not get one fifth of the way.

                Guys from those days have an automatic advantage in this and guys like Wlad will immediately be discredited.
