Funny, I've suspected the same of you ever since you posted the clip of Galento's "two MONSTER hooks" against Louis and the Marciano "triple jab" post. I enjoy your posts though. :good
Wtf? Can anyone watch this and say any different? https://www.instagram.com/p/BCexe6oAtiz/ Or just you?
We had this discussion in the thread. The first hook, as cartoonishly telegraphed as it was, was a much, much, much better punch than the second one.
While Fury has beaten Klitschko, I doubt that many people would regard him as being better in a historical context, or even better in a head to head sense.
Not necessarily. Wlad might have been shot. It might be that Fury would always beat him, but Wlad would still do better vs. common opposition. Beating somebody doesnt automatically make you better.
Shot fighters don't destroy no.1 contenders. Shot fighters are not massive favourites to win in brutal fashion. Most importantly, he did not look shot in any way. The Victor In this particular case is clearly the better boxer. Better h2h'er
Wlad's past his prime. At 40, who isn't ? But he's not shot. Or at least there's no reason to think he's shot. He didn't look shot. Looked the same as he always looked. But I do think he's slowed down a bit over the last 3 years. Then again, perhaps he looked very good considering he was deprived of his "special ring canvas" he's been using out there all these years.
Looking forward to the rematch. I'm really really hoping that Wlad comes out guns blazing as we know he can . If he delivers another snoozefest loss then he must FO already.
