Who will dethrone Wladimir?

[daggum]

Baldomir is making a comeback a heavyweight.

baldomir will look so slick compared to those fat slow oafs. he will box circles around them. mayweather-baldomir 2 for the heavyweight championship? yes

[LomaUsykKlichko]

The only two People that i see baeting wlad are Usyk in a few years hes Too fast for wlad his Movement will Kill Wlad and Joshua I think hes About as good or even as Good as Wlad but Klitchko Will be like 40 by the time he can fight these guys i see both of them beating him.

[just the facts]

Vladimir is the hardest puncher of all time, and that is a quote by Emanuel Steward.

Sanders certainly had one of the most devastating left hooks ever. He rocked Vitali harder than Lennox Lewis did, do the math.

Wlad is the hardest puncher of all time???? Hero worship is a good thing but please keep your feet on the ground. Wlad is a good puncher, but hardly the hardest of all time.

I think Wlad will retire as champ in the next couple of years. The only hiccups might be Wilder or Stiverne but Wilder has a lot to prove and I don't think Stiverne can take the jabs and rights it will take to crack Wlads defense well enough to get to that weak chin

[STEELHEAD]

He will retire the same way he arrived in absolute boredom.

DaaHahahahahah! Heee!

Still riding with Tyson Fury. Dead serious too

I want someone in there who is not going to play the role. Wlad goes out of his way to patronize both Wilder and Joshua, so it seems to me that those two have already fallen for his game. Pulev has done a bit of rustling and I'm interested in that... but in the ring, I still think he is too clean of a fighter to be mean enough to make Wlad crack.

In a fight with Fury, I would be anxiously awaiting the first clinch. Fury is having none of it. And if the ref gets in the way he's getting tossed too. Fury TKO

when has wlad ever clinched excessively with guys his own size or bigger?

Well I was mostly being tongue in cheek about the clinching and how Fury handles it. I realize he isn't the 2nd coming or anything but he has some tools for this fight. But you're right. Wlad doesn't really clinch against taller opponents...that's part of the reason why the fight intrigues me. If the distance is closed and Fury is too tall to get over his neck, then I think it gets interesting because Fury does have an alright inside game for HW of today's standards. And he's just mean enough to not show respect and chip away at Wlad before the fight starts.

yea,,I get your point but it still makes me cringe when light hitting guys like cunningham and a couple others can hurt fury so easily with right hands. doesnt bode well for what happens when wlad lands. I agree that it would be an intriguing fight tho with fury's size,,,heart and rough tactics

There is some truth in your argument, but remember Fury almost got starched by a light punching cruiserweight. I don't think Fury can take the punches it will take to get past Wlads tight defense.

[embryo]

Wlad will dethrone himself when he retires. Who's going to beat him, honestly? Maybe Evander will come out of retirement again.
