    By now we've seen that the necessary skills to hold a title for a decade aren't necessarily entertaining.
    Tired of Wlad, tired of Floyd. It's intriguing to watch their skill set, but not enough to pay PPV money every time.
    LL was starting to get boring, only his defense kind of sucked so there was a good chance he'd get caught with something and things would get exciting. Wlad is the picture of self preservation and his days of getting caught have long gone by.
    I doubt he goes out on a limb even now, after getting outboxed by a so-so fighter.
    Goodbye Wlad.

    No because the fight was so atrocious, it's honestly 100% the worst fight I have ever seen in my life.

    Have you ever seen Seth Mitchell vs. Jonathan Banks II? Or Terence Crawford vs. Andrey Klimov? Literally I was getting urges to :hang myself watching both of them.

    I've seen the former but only faintly remember it, haven't seen the latter. But honestly, I just can't see anything topping that ****, it was just something else, it's hard to call it a "boxing" match even when neither guy was throwing any punches (the whole premise behind the sport)

    good fight i was thoroughly entertained watch my main man tyson fury make the old man chase shadows all night and pepper wlad with that jab.

    what got on my nerves was fury throwing wide right hands that never landed, im hoping in the rematch its a straight one-two down the pipe!

    I do remember being happy to see Wlad lose for putting on that disgraceful display though afterwards.

    That makes no sense. Fury's fights are as boring as Wlad's.

    Wlad's title fights mostly ended in KO wins. You'd rather watch boring Mayweather's jab clinics?

    So, jabbing hugging and leaning? Oh God no. :-(

    There was nothing to like about that spectacle. Horrendous fight and ushered in an embarrassing HW era.

    I was happy that Fury wasn't robbed. Wlad didn't earn a win that night. I do want him to win in the rematch
