Why are fans of 'The Sweet Science' (Floyd/Bhop fans) slow to defend the Klitschkos?

    And Hop and Floyd fight flat footed when they have to.

    Exactly.

    and with all those advantages Wlad has over most of his opponents, you would think he'd have then out of there quickly and in brutal fashion.

    floyd COULD have stopped baldamer or at least stepped on the gas and "mixed it up" with him to try and end the fight

    There's a reason for Wlad to be cautious. He's protecting a suspect glass jaw that's already been exposed by Corey Sanders.

    So isn't being cautious the smart thing to do by Wlad?

    You know what 'smart' means right? Isn't that how Floyd and Bernard fight?

    And he was rightfully criticised for his performance in that fight. He had Baldo timed. Baldo couldn't hit him if they were in a phone booth. I thought he should've stepped it up and tried to get Baldo out of there. He didn't, he was booed, and he still gets trashed for that perfomance.

    yeah I feel you on that. Even Samuel Peter. he has a big punch, but Wlad sapped all the energy out of him in that fight and both of them just kept grabbing each other. The ref had to come over to his corner and tell him to just punch and fight out of the clinches and he knocked his exhausted butt out easily the next round.

    Though I like Paul Williams as a fighter (the guy brings it), I don't see how he fits in your top 5 with the others.

    TS is looking for posters to come in and say it's a racial thing, made it obvious when it was the only post he quoted and agreed with. Not sure how long you want to waste your time on this one although good points were made to show differences...

    he had a bad bruise on his hand and Baldomir at the time had a pretty good chin with a 15 pound weight advantage.

    I wouldn't knock Wlad for fighting the way he does against a bigger opponent

    There really is absolutely no comparison between the skill levels of BHOP/Mayweather and either Klit.
    They are both master boxers whereas the Klits are simply oversized average boxers who cannot perform on the same level as BHOP/Mayweather.
