To be fair, Wladamir suppsedly fought the most dangerous heavyweights of recent years in Haye and Povetkin and did what he wanted with them. Pulev was supposed to be something and he smashed him in two rounds. He went to America and fought the best available American and won every round.

I agree he cant really be considered "dominant" for so long because of his brother was also a belt holder for some of that time but that doesnt stop Larry Holmes being considered dominant for so long when there was other belts available and he never unified.
