Wladimir has faced a lot of power punchers with skills and proved he can still outbox them.He is never behind in his fights.I dont know where you came up with defining his style as jab and grab.I have seen all of his fights many times over and the only fight where he held was against Peter and even then it was far less than Ruiz and it was a tacticle decision implimented by Stewart.
