When Wlad fights a live body and a banger then we'll see how confident he is.
If you don't get hit then that really voids the whole chin issue then doesn't it

Brewster and Sanders "sold out"...well Corrie did it because he knew he had to get to him within the first couple of rounds or Corrie would be gased. Lamon did it out of dumbass luck...he let Wlad smash his face for 5 rounds until he tired himself out. Wlad fought Brewster again and look what happened, Wlad paced himself and Brewster got destroyed...if Wlad fought even a PRIME Corrie Sanders right now he'd have no issue with him he has probably fought and beaten more heavyweight southpaws (for title fights) than any other heavyweight champion in history and all that just since the loss to Corrie Sanders...none of them really bothered him and it's not because they were worse than Sanders it's because Wlad learned from his mistakes....some people are able to adapt and Wlad has done that. Ruslan Chagaev landed 1 meaningful punch on Wladimir.....1 and it didn't even phase him.

Wlad's CHIN isn't the issue it's how he deals with being hit...he has never been KO'd the way Hatton got KO'd by Pacquiao he has only been knocked down, he's always recovered decently, in the Sanders and Brewster fights he took some pretty damn big bombs and either took them standing up or got right back up after getting knocked down....Wlad just didn't know how to deal with fighting once his bell has been rung and NOW he just ties the guys up and viola he hasn't had trouble since then
