Wlad fought a guy who was seen as his hardest test by many. Floyd talks about blood test of Manny. Shoot a flare to sky when he fights someone with a actual chance of winning him.
He was also hit like 100 more times. And I wouldnt call that first right hand from Mosley a 'bomb'. It was just a straight, flush right hand . Like I said Floyd overreacts to punches. Even Cotto, who I'd say has an average chin at welter, took way more right hands then Floyd ever did and took them well. If you spend most of your time avoiding getting hit, your not gonna automatically have a good chin. Ali's chin got better later in his career when he started taking punishment.
Floyd is a legit ATG who has beaten many fighters of high skill, Wlad beats limited Haye and Klit fanatics go crazy.
The similarity lies in the fact that both Floyd and Wlad don't take risks. If they do, it's highly calculated. Unless you're a fan who can appreciate the true, sweet science of boxing, you're not going to be wowed by Floyd's moves in the ring. Both Wlad and Floyd have a great jab. You can't deny that. If Wlad's bread and butter offensive attack is so ordinary why aren't other HW fighters using it effectively? Seems easy enough to master, right? Don't let the look fool you. The great ones make things appear ridiculously easy.
unfortunately, your fellow *****s cannot see that and appreciate wlad for the skills that he bring. Now, if only Wlad is black...
Utter nonsense. I show Floyd Mayweather highlights to non-boxing fans all the time, and they are wowed. I showed Floyd Mayweather vs Mosley to my mother who doesnt watch a shred of boxing, and she was amazed. Floyd generates the most money in boxing because the casual fan can be wowed by Floyds skills in the ring. If I showed a Wlad fight to someone they would never watch another boxing match again.
I'm not exactly throwing a party or making it appear that Wlad is threatening Ali's legacy. But I do think after beating Haye, Wlad has established a solid resume. Last weekend's fight is like the Superbowl of boxing. Say what you want about Wlad and Haye but it was the biggest fight of the year. It didn't turn out the way people had hoped for. But someone actually won in that special event which should make him a stand out to a certain degree.
These *****s do not have the right to speak about Wlad's skills. These are the same shitheads who were ready to anoint Devon Alexander as the next ATG despite his lack of fighting talent. Now if Wlad is black....
Nice video. This man's reflexes and counter punching abilities are STUNNING. Till age doesn't begin to show on him, he'll be close to unbeatable.
