Not sure if I have commented on this thread because it's been running a little while & I think that I have missed it.

That being said...I honestly can't agree with the title...Wladimir isn't a great but i give him a chance against some of the greats?

I totally disagree.

Wlad's one of the greats already even though he's got the losses that he has...all he needs to do is avenge a couple of them & he gains more momentum towards the big time.

There are no heavies out there right now that I don't think that he can't drop.
