Damn right. Let's quit pussy-footing around this point and call a spade a spade. There's been slow periods in HW, but nothing like the absolute trash there is today.


The vast majority of challengers are so far below the standard 1990's that he has remained champion for so long.
Ditto. See above.


Wlad is a great heavyweight champion and a good role model
Someone who's just hating doesn't call the fighter "a great heavyweight champion". No one is trying to totally discredit Wlad. But again... let's be real here. I've said the same thing for years.


but he does not clinically knock out fighters until he is 100% they have no resistance.
PRE-FRIGGING-CISELY!!! Most telling fact of all. Wlad takes zero risks. ZERO. And before the certain "blah-blah-blah" about how boxers aren't supposed to take risks....... WRONG. If it was all about not taking any risks, they wouldn't step into the ring at all, would they.


He takes 10 rounds when it should be 5.


He has a vulnerable chin and that is why he fights the way he does with excessive holding.
Right once again. Which makes for boring, foul-filled fights.


Better science my ass.
Ok, now he's hating.

You offered nothing but agreeing with him.

I exposed the Wlad chin myth.

And exposed the 90's superiority myth too.

The Klitschko's would have dominated in the 90's too imo. Lennox Lewis would have been the most serious factor for them.


Yeah.... that's the funny thing about arguments, Max.
Someone says something you yourself have said countless times..... you agree.
Someone takes the opposite side..... you disagree.

Hope this helps.

BTW, exposing myths involves a bit more than to say..... "Uhh... I don't think so."

Hope this helps also.

I know you feel that Wlad has an iron chin and throws caution to the wind in order to provide us fans with memorable, exciting fights. I'm sorry most of us are so blind we just don't see it that way. Wlad fouling his way through fights to protect his fine china chin? Nah..... that's just a figment of our imagination.

This generation of HW's is comparable in quality to any other? If you say so... it must be true. I don't know how I could have possible snoozed through classics like Wlad-Sultan and Wlad-Povetkin..... not to mention the epics Wlad-Thompson I and II.

Austin? Piñata....er.... I mean..... Pianeta? Leapai?
Future HOF'ers all of them.
