    So by your logic, you believe Tyson is an ATG for actually blowing away his opposition within 3 rounds whilst Grabimir doesn't.

      Tyson wasn't in anywhere near as many World title fights as Wladimir. Never the less that's no knock on Mike, both are ATG's.

        Well, he should have demolished Mormeck in less than 2 rounds. The guy threw NOTHING.

        I'm a big Wladimir fan, but I don't like how he carries inferior fighters into the later rounds.

          How is it news that Wlad signs a contract that he wrote, to face an opponent he picked, to defend a belt he bought? Get the **** outta here

            Why? This same old but in excellent shape version of Mormeck almost Ko'd prime David Haye in a 50/50 fight that could have gone either way. That win by Haye over old Mormeck ironically is still his best ever win.

              I think it's a business thing...generally if he was fighting in the US (in fact when he actually WAS) he was going for the KO a lot more and a lot earlier, in Germany or just Europe he tends to carry fights for the sake of the audiences - probably because of the huge shows and the whole expensive production element, even if a round 1-3 KO would be more appreciated by the general viewing public, they are just more worried about the people paying the gate fees...sadly they are there more for the show than the actual boxing, in many cases.

                      Fair enough yeh I think Wladimir will push for the knockout.
