Who should Wlad beat to enhance his legacy?

[Rousseau]

I think fighters like Stiverne, Pulev, Wilder, Fury, Chisora, Jennings,
Perez would do his record favors. How do you rate Wlad atm all time? How high can he get in all time statistics? I think he's building up a solid legacy at HW.

Andre Ward

No current fighter will increase his legacy because none of the current fighters are very good historically speaking...Wlads ranking is going to be based on longevity and title defenses

I saw he takes out all of america hype bums out and bam enhanced his legacy my a decimal point.

There is some truth to this. But then define historically speaking. You mean the best who beat the best. I think the problem is that these days the best don't fight the best, due to promotion etc. IMO Wlad's longevity and title defenses will give him the top 5 spot all time.

He just needs to keep going. While there has been some chaff recently, he's been pretty much take all comers over the years. He's got a nice spread of more exciting challengers emerging. If he keeps winning, it will shine favorably on him. If he avoids something like the Povetkin performance, even better.

As soon as Wlad beats that name, they will say he wasn't that good and wait for the next name. Look at what happened with Haye, he was their savior and he failed the guys that don't like to see Wlad on top.

This right here.

What i mean is no current heavyweight will see the hall of fame without buying a ticket 1st

Funny thing about Haye is the only people who discredit him are diehard Klit bro fans...everyone else gives him props and say it was a great win...They have so severe personal issues with Haye
