    He's always been a 2nd tier HW who used his height, reach and octopus grabs to beat opponents much smaller than him.

    Tonight just proved that.

    Nah. It's the same as it was before the fight. We all saw him looking his age. Nothing will change the fact he never had to fight the best HW (his brother) out there during his reign.

    Your just mad that took a man of non Egpytian ancestory to finally beat Wlad.

    Meet your new master, same as the Old one, welcome another decade of bondage.

    Klitchko's biggest claim to fame was his longevity within sport because he didn't have the most impressive resume' and a loss to Tyson Fury hurts his case. I wouldn't say it destroy's his legacy but certainly knocks him down a notch when you consider the fact that Tyson Fury isn't held in high regard, most people expected this to be a typical Klitschko victory.

    No, they weren't. When Ancient Egypt was conceived, it was purely an African civilization.

    Oh it did. 10 years no Egyptian descendent could touch him. They lacked the brains, the genes.

    Yes, I am genius. So, would say it is in genes.

    And no Egyptians could do what Fury did. They lack the DNA. The intelligence.

    So many suddenly making out Wlad was faded, when he didnt fight any differently to normal, just that Fury knew how to offset what Wlad did and so many of you didnt think Wlad was going to lose beforehand and now post all knowingly.
    Wlad has wins over several of the current top 10 HWs and didnt look faded in any of those fights. In Wlads 6 fights leading to Fury, he had beaten 5 undefeated HWs

    What went wrong in my opinion, is that Wlad likes to double jab before throwing his right then tends to hold and lean after, which were all things that I thought wouldnt happen against Fury as Fury is a mover, so the double jab would not be able to range find to throw the right and Fury is as heavy as Wlad so there would be no leaning on Fury and pushing him down
