    No offense to Wlad, but the guy as a fighter and a person is boring. The division desperately needed a shake up, and we got one tonite. Why spoil it with talking about a fighter who barely creates enough buzz to get his fights broadcasted on TV?

    Not the casuals who are caught up in the nationalistic hype. I bet if they do fight soon the hype would be like it was for ****ey. Remember when the vast majority of casuals thought he'd beat Holmes? Same thing here.

    When their is a pink elephant in the room the post fight interviewer always asks about it, this time zilch. That was done by design believe me. Wilder doesn't want to fight him.

    :patsch His fights are regularly broadcasted on HBO, ESPN, RTL and other channels in over 160 countries around the world. Get a clue before you talk

    HBO every once in awhile, for the other 75%of the time I end up having to catch most of his fights on a stupid internet feed.

    Wow! So you admit to hunting for Wlad's fights on obscure internet feeds? The same fighter you claim is so boring? You pathetic hypocrite.

    The guy can not sell a fight in the states after he was booed out of the arena in 07 against Iggy, which is why Briggs was signed on to help with that. The first video was funny, the rest just seem too put on.

    I watch his fights, in the hopes to one day to see him face first on the canvas like he was against Sanders.

    No they said the word "Klitschko" about one or both of the brothers multiple times. I specifically recall at least 2 times during the fight in addition to the several times before the fight.

    hahahaha!!! Keep dreaming. Manny knew what he was doing and did his job well. Wlad is way more defensive now and not likely to lose in while no matter how many haters like you he might have.

    Your probably right. It also helps the division is about as weak my 85 yearold grandma. Which is why Wlad gets such little attention in the media. He's been feasting off of nobodies for years. That would be like Lebron playing one on one against a high school kid, of course he's gonna look dominant. It's easy to look good against people whose talent level and size isn't even close to yours.

    That's always the question, are you really that good or is everyone else that bad...they said the same during Louis' reign, as well as Marciano's and Holmes'. Whatever the case I can assure you that Wilder is one of those that isn't on his level. Although he could wait and see if Wlad gets old. Btw why is it nobody ever gives Bhop the same type of bs over his middleweight opposition? Eh, people have their favorites I guess, and the standards change for the ones we like.
