"quality" opponents Wlad "fought"

[Ron Swanson]

Max you make me feel sad. Like none of this is about boxing but rather your need for attention.

The reason I say this is because this era does have big strong heavyweights but you would have to know absolutely nothing of the sport to not see the great majority are lacking in the ability to fight. Some may have a good jab or a powerful straight right but someone that moves and punches like they born to fight is lacking. And it's obvious.

I agree WK deserves the credit of an all-time great. For some reason people have a hard time giving credit to someone who shows a weakness then improves to cover that weakness. It's baffling. It should be what real boxing fans like to see most, like Manny developing a right hand it changed him completely as a fighter. But it seems fandom is more about deciding on a fighter and then arguing your case until death. Ignoring all changes of circumstances.

Fact is Wladimir is great and he takes on the best guys available. There are many big strong fighters but there aren't many natural fighters. Wladimir deserves as much credit as anyone that dominates their era though.
