    There really is no point picking holes in his opposition. For me it's about being a dominant champion, regardless of the era you fight in.
    Besides, how often do you see a heavyweight fighting other 'great' heavyweights (that aren't washed up or out of their better suited weight class)?

    Not often. Infact, hardly ever

    Those that do, or have, i think you'll find are quite high up on your respective Top.10's... So there's definitely space for Wladdy somewhere
    Even after getting KTFO in his Pomp, 3 no marks?

    Which other top 10 ATG would have lost in or around their prime, to opposition as poor as Wlad has!
    Joe Louis

    Okay, it's not quite as bad but he did:
    * Get KTFO one year before becoming Champion of the world.
    * Go on to be the Boxing's most dominant Champion.
    * Fight a long list of weak opposition
