    And? Almost 6 years of straight heavyweight domination without getting dropped.

    Its kind of amazing how he has been able to change his style and not get dropped anymore dominating everyone for years.

    While I agree it's in a large large large part due to Manny Steward.

    he has mastered the art of clinching.. he is a product of corrupted ring referees that allows him all that holding and clinching

    Wlad rarely clinched versus Haye who is said to be his toughest opponent to date.

    Never saw my ATG favorite Larry Holmes have a fight in which he didn't hold/lean on an opponent at least 4X/rd.

    Grandpa used to call it the wear down strategy. Liston was the fighter of renown who made it an actual technique from what I've been told.

    Peter initiated most of the hugs if I remember correctly.

    come on now, lets be honest.. many of his fights would play different if he didn't hold that much.. not saying he would lose them but it would not look as they do..
    jab, jab, right hand clinch, jab jab right hand clinch.. for 12 long rounds and then he tries to ko them when he sucked them dry of their energy during clinches.. he is big and probably strong too
    **** off Wlad Clinchko, only ******s like your fights...
