...in reality only Sanders went "ape shit crazy" on Wladimir and Wlad obliged by giving up height and reach and trying to trade with him.

Lamon Brewster absorbed 4 rounds of brutality and kept chasing after Wladimir and Wlad eventually tuckered out.

The only ways to beat Wladimir are #1 Catch him with solid punches AND follow up #2 Take everything he has and keep applying pressure.

I think #2 Has been pretty much solved by Wladimir, #1 he may still have an issue with if and when he gets hit hard enough.
