Do Wlad's 3 defeats hamper his ATG status?

    He didn't own him. He beat him. But at least he did get a couple of BJ's while doing it

    I'm drunk as fuck
    True. haha,

    Being drunk always equates to a short look on bscene to see what's going on! In fairness, I should have been out doing the same.

    Na zdrowie!

      Dissapointing. He had a lot of talents, did Sanders. I really liked him. Quick, strong, powerful. But wlad should have beaten him.
      sanders only moonlighted as a prizefighter. if he took it seriously full time he may have been a legit contender. he was never in great shape & usually gassed out after 4 or 5 rounds but there were bombs thrown in those rounds. he could take a good punch too. he never dominated rahman as he got dropped 3 times & rahman twice. the best was when they dropped each other at the same time. you don't see that often...that is still the best heavyweight fight since Y2K...best fight since 2000 in my opinion...

        I agree. But he did dominate Rahman. Rahman was hurt in every round up until the 5-6th round and had been down a couple a times. He caught Sanders on the counter, but they were flash KDs, Sanders didn't seem to be hurt and he had Rahman backing up and falling on the ropes the entire fight. But yes, that was something else lol!

        Best fight of 2000? I'm not sure. One of them.

          that was a great fight. I thought it was a somewhat quick stoppage but sanders was spent and wasnt punching back so the ref halted it. rahman was pretty damn good back then when he was focused

            I thought so too. But he gave the ref a chance to stop it, and he shouldn't have done that.

            I was never really a fan of Rahman. I don't think he was that good, but he has a couple of good wins that says otherwise. A decent top 10-15 heavy after 2000, but nothing more than that imo.

                But neither are you.



                You mean Bornholm? Lol. pretty far dude. It's an Island. Have been there a couple of times, it's nice. Occupied by the Russians until the 80's I believe.

                In my prime, I would have done it. I had a pretty decent amateur record. We can set up a ten round trivia, let's see who wins







                Bornholm was bombed by the russian sand subsequently occupied by them because the german commander refused to surrender to the Sovjets. USSR then occupied the Island for a year before returning it to Denmark in april 1946.

                Are you sure you are danish?

                      hahaha lol.

                      Just read up on my history, and must admit got that one completely wrong.

                      I'm not a fullblooded dane. I grew up in the UK.

                      My mother is danish though and I live here.
