How was Corrie Sanders able to tag Wlad at will?

well put again mate

 

why is farm boxer alowed to post constant shite..ban him ffs

 

He never seemed to really recover from the first big left that got him in trouble in the first place

in heavyweight boxing its very common for a guy to just get nailed and not comeback

now Wlad fights in a style that takes a few rounds to get going and works in a style of taking away your strengths and punishing you over the course of rounds

its frustrating at times to watch Wlad pick apart and gradually do away with a guy he should be able to blowout with ease but he doesnt want to take any chances when he can crush you from far away and out of danger

 

Top notch in the weakest heavy era EVER:hi:

 

Farmy is strange

He's a mexican white supremacist...:rofllol::nut

 

I wouldn't favor the current Wlad over Sanders. Sanders was one of the few fighters that was willing to come after Wlad, and could do so with quick, powerful punches from a southpaw stance. Wlad wouldn't be dealing with his usual heartless and/or limited opposition. He would get tagged, get hurt, and get stopped again.

 

I agree and this fight was scheduled to end in Rd 3 but not for Sanders. You never overlook a guy who is hungry and Sanders was starving:smoke

 

:roll:WOW
Thanks for sharing........:smoke

 

:huh
This is first time I read his post and it was interesting stuff....:smoke

 

It's called a paragraph, look into it! I'm not reading this crap.

 

at that time nobody and i mean nobody but sanders would take a fight with wladimir.i think it was like 15 americans declined to fight wlad.alot of the boxing press thought wlad was boring and wrote so.wlad wanted to look impressive to silence some critics.he went into the fight waaaay overconfident thinking more about how good he looked beating sanders rather than fighting smart.how wlad got up from that first knockdown was amazing.i mean wlad was sleeping

thats pretty much what happened

but he learned from it and moved on to dominate the heavyweight division as i predicted.his best fights are yet to come.i think when he feels his legacy is secure we will see a more aggresive style.

yup

 

There was a reason Corrie was called "the Sniper" if you look at his record he ko'ed a great number of fighters in the first few rounds - some solid ones too apart from Wlad.

 

HE got caught and then he was getting caught more and more because he was hurt.

 

I think it was a combination of both factors, with emphasis on the second. Sanders -- in spite of his many flaws -- was exceptional and dangerous for three reasons. He had lightning quick handspeed (among the best that I've ever seen, and I've been watching boxing for decades), he was southpaw, and he had good height and reach, which he knew how to use.

Another thing to keep in mind is Sanders' punching power. Once he landed with a single power blow, his opponents tended to be so stunned that they were sitting ducks for Sanders' follow up blows. I believe that this is a big part of why Vlad was so hittable that night.

Long story short, Vlad's defensive acumen was never especially good (remember: he always relied on height, devastating offensive skills, and/or long range posturing to stay safe), and on this night, his inexperience made him that much easier for Sanders to tag.

The Manny Steward trained version of Vlad would have put a cruel beating on Sanders, although even then, Vlad would have faced a scarey moment or two (like he did in the first Peter fight).

Vlad's an ATG in my book. Very, very impressive champ.

 

He threw technique and a long term strategy out the window, that's how. Obviously it was the right move...
