Wlad is a smart fighter BECAUSE he uses his size to his advantage, he did not use to do that in fact THAT got him beat vs Sanders, he was almost in a crouch for that fight....dumb for a guy his size. He has more strategy and he doesn't vary from it, he doesn't need to as no one has proven it ineffective.

You can't argue against him being a good fighter....he may not entertain you but people said the exact same thing about Lennox Lewis
Yes, but when I think about Lennox Lewis and spend time watching footage of him, he's a WAY smarter fighter than Wlad, for all the reasons I already mentioned. If he were'nt, he'd have been no better. He's the same size, has KO power in the right and a great jab. Maybe it's not so much boxing IQ as it is general athletecism and reflexes. It's a fine line, but whatever it is that made Lennox a great fighter, Wlad doesn't have it.
