Yes it is a good post and no matter what happens , Wlad will never get the credit for any victories no matter who he beats...On top of that, he will always be compared to some past heavies from 1896 thru now :good
But as i said.. Thinking that Haye is garbage is wrong.. he certainly isnt.. But maybe.. When a boxer faces a dangerous opponent their fans tries to make him(the opponent) look as bad as possible (probably to build confidence that their fighter can beat him), but when their man faces a guy he is supposed to walk over, they try to make an opponent out of an over matched foe.. Just look at Kessler, he was givin credit for destroying a french men, who was nothing but a tune up.. but his fans is trying to make Bute look bad, because he is a possible future opponent and is very dangerous.. (also the other way around, Bute's fans also tries to make kessler look like a shameless ducker)..
It doesn't matter. If you're calling a fighter garbage before the fight, no one is going to respect you're opinion if you start praising a guy for beating said garbage fighter after the fight. No me personally, I thought this was the best fighter Wlad has ever faced. The fight wasn't pretty, but Wlad won and deserves a lot of credit in my book. Now if were sitting here and claiming it was a **** win for Wlad, nobody would respect my opinion as I said Haye was a good fighter and a legit challenge before the fight.
I said that Haye was a dangerous figter and wasnt givin enough credit for his accomplishment in the lead up to the fight :good
Well then your personal outlook on the win is credible. I'm just explaining to you why Wlad might not be getting the credit you think he deserves.
just because you dont see a ton of threads with "Wlad the best", "Wlad the ATG", doesnt mean people dont give him credit. People quietly admit it. He's the best fighter of his generation and even haters struggle not to aknowledge him as an ATG. Wlad made it.
I'm sorry I knew haye was **** then and now. Wlad gets credit for being champ in shitty era. nothing I can do about that
I really agree with this. As a poster pointed out earlier, a good big man beats a good little man, and thats exactly what happened last night. Fighters with a two stone plus weight difference shouldn't be in the ring together. It doesn't happen in other weights, why should it happen at heavyweight. The Olympics has a superheavy catagory for instance.
Wlad gets no credit cause everyone falls asleep during his fights cause they're so boring. Safety first, terrified to fight boring turgid ****, he killed heavyweight boxing along with his sister Vitalia.
It's his own fans. They put so much effort into discrediting his opponents that they can't even give him praise when he wins. Boxing fans do credit wlad, most people have him a top 15 all time heavyweight. He's one of the few boxers getting praise during his time, most guys have to retire first.
did you think these losers were really gonna give credit? they'll never have to face anybody or man up for any comments they make why should they play right?
