The ultimate heavyweight to beat Wlad would have been the young Mike Tyson. He would have simply annihilated him. As for Thompson, who has waited a long time for his shot and is very deserving, it´s a shame that it´s coming against the wrong guy. Thompson could beat Peter or Chagaev in my opinion. Expect Wlad-Thompson to look a lot like Wlad-Mccline. I believe it will be slowpaced, dull and one-sided, but hope I´m wrong.

By the way...Hi everybody. Nice forum you got here

Look...

I don't mean to single you out, but you have so many things wrong here that I have to reply to this.

Anyone who knows this forum can verify that I have been talking about him and Nate Campbell for a while (check 'Arawak' on the search)...

He is EXACTLY what is needed to beat Wlad. Tony Thompson is the SAME SIZE, WEIGHT AND REACH as Lennox Lewis. Am I saying he is the same? No. I am saying he has the package. And what you call slow is acknowledged as fluidity in many circles.

No power...? Tell that to Krasniqi, who didn't win one round in his own country. Then he crushes Couser, whose chin reminds me of the Wlad Klit...
