Klit last night was absolutely horrible. And even the commentators said it wasn't fury that won, it was Klit that lost, simply by not even trying. How many right hands do you through in training leading up to a fight? 500,000? How many fights have you thrown that right hand all night long? And now all of a sudden you don't know how to throw a straight right hand with a guy who's hands are behind his back? Fury his horrible too, but he kept busy and won based on Klit pawing with a jab the entire night. This was by far the most disgraceful performance I've ever seen from any boxer at any level, let alone the HW champ of the world? :roll: It was shocking and discombobulating watching this bafoon. following a man around, pawing with the jab, ****ing the right but never throwing it? I get you don't want to get countered, but when you've lost 6 straight rounds, of course you're going to atleast try it. Unless of course your mentally deranged Klit.
I think Wlad is so deathly afraid of getting hit that it just paralyzes him from throwing punches and leaving himself open. That is the only explanation I can come up with after watching that charade yesterday. I guess he knows he is getting out soon and doesn't want any damage before he does. Not a great attitude for a fighter. I still can't believe what I saw yesterday, Fury standing there with his hands behind his back and Wlad didn't even try to throw a punch. Ugh!
It was the worst performance for a single boxer I've ever seen, at any level. I mean its a fight, your the champ, of course you're going to get punched. the craziest part was wlad following him around the ring doing NOTHING but getting the odd punch back in the face. He may as well tied his own hands behind his back, with exception of the pawing left jab, his hands were completely useless. A boxer's biggest offensive tool, and wlad doesn't even use it to fight. I don't know if it was staged, or if he had some kind of mental breakdown, but it was the strangest thing i've ever seen in a boxing match, aside from what's his name crying in the ring and not wanting to fight. the funny part was Wlad putting his hands up at the end of the fight, pretending he felt like he won. LOL Crowd should have thrown their drinks at him, they came to watch him fight, not be someones heavybag, literally. Fury probably had tougher sparring matches with every partner leading up until this so called fight.
if this wasnt the worst heavyweight title fight in history, then its the runner up. this fight made johnny ruiz look like muhammad ali, sugar ray robinson and joe louis all mixed in one. disgusting.
EXTREMELY poor performance by Wlad, but I don't think it was worse than any Ruiz fight. He was unwatchable at all times. People aren't giving Fury enough respect for Wlad's poor performance. I completely agree that Wlad looked bad, but I'd say 75% of that performance was due to Fury's movement which totally confused Wlad. Keep in mind that Wlad had never lost a decision. He had no idea of how to fight from behind; he was still clutching an grabbing like he had the fight in the bag. He had no idea how to throw body punches in close. He looked old. All of that was his fault. But the mental confusion that manifested itself in his lack of aggression was all due to Fury's movement.
Wlad has been afraid of getting hit for years. The rare times he has been clipped since the Brewster fight he has panicked and flapped. As for his not throwing many shots; he never throws his right hand or left hook unless his opponent is standing still in front of him.
He didn't have a plan b but he has a rematch to find one, he is still well capable of doing that and the pressure will be more on Fury after last night.
Unwatchable event I don't even call it a fight, a runner up for the worst in history please Wlad don't put us in another suffering show.
It has to be perfect for Wlad to throw a right hand with something on it. The jab has to land with a thud and the opponents head has to snap back. Without a reach advantage, Wladimir was just lost. Check that, Wlad knew and was capable of throwing punches, he was just afraid what would come back by taking such chances. In all seriousness, I cant blame Wlad for his performance, because I seriously believe he would have gotten stopped if he opened himself and took chances against Fury. Wlad should just retire. With Fury and Wilder now on the scene, the days of him having a monumental reach advantage have come to an end.
Don't know what you guys are talking about, Wlad has ALWAYS fought like this, even against smaller limited opponents(which are almost everyone of his opponents). He just jabs the smaller fighters to death, and after they are tired he begins to throw the right.
