Wlad has fought by far the best competition of any HW since Lewis...

byrd beat vitali.. concidered a dangerous threat the first time they fought....

peter was a very dangerous opponent for him especially at that point in his career, sanders was a risky fight, both brewster fights were risky all very hard punchers...

come to think of it i think wlad has faced every huge puncher of the current HW's today...
Since Lewis left hw era has been weak so thats not saying whole lot is it ?? Byrd only beat Vitali because of injury Vitali had plus Vitali was dominating Byrd 1st Brewster fight was not a risk Brewster had beaten nobody at that time and was not really considered to give Wlad trouble at all so that is why it was considered a major upset i agree with Sanders fight though.
