I think he would beat a lot of the older generations of heavyweights due to his size alone. He's very good at keeping smaller fighters at the end of his jab and his right hand would be a formidable weapon against any opponent.

Not sure he would have beat Marciano, I would give Rocky the benefit of the doubt just because he never did loose.
He would have beat Archie Moore,
Michael Moore (the fighter lol)
Frank Bruno
Buster Douglas
And the best fighter he might have probably beat is Big Daddy Bowe, I actually think that would have been a very entertaining fight.
And for the record I think his brother is better than him and would have beat or at least stood a decent chance against a lot more atg's than he would have.
I can also see Wlad beating the following:
Tommy Morrison: he just didn't have the talent or style to hang with Wlad plus he didn't take punches all that great either.
Donovan Ruddock - dangerous puncher but seriously lazy in the ring and in training.
Michael Dokes - solid all around fighter but simply not a threat to Wlad
Ray Mercer - we saw what a very raw Wlad did to an old Mercer, I think the Prime vs Prime wouldn't be all that different.
Ron Lyle - dangerous, but wild and didn't have great stamina
I think Wlad would hold his own vs Tyson and Liston. Say what you will about how dangerous Mike Tyson is but if his style had one flaw (it didn't it had more than a few) it was fighters that used similar techniques as Wlad: good use of height, reach, the jab, solid defense, and tying up on the inside...Wlad is solid to above average in most of those areas which means he would have a chance...if he had an uppercut he'd be a sure thing. As for Liston, i just don't think he could handle the movement and the size of Wlad...sure Sonny could bang but he'd have to catch Wlad first and that is easier said than done

That would be Michael Moorer

I think we all know Wlad would just flatten Shannon Briggs. Briggs in his day was a decent fighter with good handspeed and good pop, but I think Wlad would start up an asthma attack
