How Does Wlad Get On Against The Following Opponents?

Wlad has fought a stream of bums lately. I include Povetkin in that number. How does Wlad get on against these guys? I reckon they all provide him with very tough tests.

Malik Scott - The fastest, slickest HW around. Malik is nothing like any of Wlad's previous opponents. His superb head movement and outstanding body work would see him school Wlad to a decision. The HW Mayweather.

Bermane Stiverne - Another skilled HW who would also cause Wlad trouble with decent body work, which Wlad is not used to. Furthermore, his murderous power would have Wlad's legs quaking like jelly should he connect. He's not too slick, though, and I worry that he would eat jabs and straights all fight long like most Wlad opponents.

Tyson Fury - Boxed extremely clever against KJ, in a similar fashion to Vitali. If he boxed clever against Wlad, he has a real shot, and Wlad is certainly not used to being the smaller man in a fight.

 

Scott killed Glazkov with body work. How many fighters have gone into a Wlad fight and used a sustained body attack to break him down? Wlad has no experience of this whatsoever. No way does Wlad KO Scott. He can't hit what he can't see, his jabs will be hitting thin air all night long.

 

A guy who went life and death with Huck is not going to pose any threat to Wlad.

Scott, Fury, Stiverne, Haye, Pulev all beat Povetkin.

 

You over-rate the importance of power. The aim of boxing is to hit and not get hit. All else is irrelevant to people who KSAB. Those who DKSAB give precedent to things like "aggression". Unfortunately, this DKSAB segment consists of some misguided judges, which is why Scott was robbed against Glazkov.

 

Why do you think Lennox used Scott as his primary sparring partner? Why do you think Wlad used Scott frequently many years back? Why do you think Povetkin is using Scott now? It's because he ****ing knows how to box and provides a unique test.

I hear Johnathon Banks is a big fan of Scott. Hopefully he can use his close relationship with Wlad to persuade him to take the Scott fight.

 

I think you are underestimating Scott's speed and movement. Everyone who has sparred with him will tell you he is more slick than any other HW.

But I accept your criticism. There is still room for Scott to improve in tough fights. He learnt his lesson against Glazkov, he knows he needs to place more emphasis on throwing a high volume of punches. I think he outboxes Wlad and negates Wlad's negative and illegal tactics.

 

Scott beat Glazkov when he was fighting at 50%. He was clearly robbed. Scott at 100% would 120-108 Glazkov and give Wlad a real test.
Nobody and I repeat NOBODY moves like Scott. Wlad has never had to deal with that.
