Will April 29th showcase a new level of "shotness" for Wladimir Klitschko ?

Even his roids will not save him.

 

good post!

I'm not convinced AJ is a ATG, however, I am convinced he is pretty damned good all things considered,,,,

that said, I am leaning towards Wlad getting beat by the young lion and possibly early.

 

Wlad should win he only loses if femi doubles his steroids

 

Its almost a lose/lose situation for AJ if he wins (impressively) everyone will state it more due to Wlad's recent digression. Of course if Wlad wins AJ is deemed a hypejob....

I tend to a young Wlad loses to a prime AJ because of his lack of true focus and inconsistent behavior when facing immediate danger/dilemma/adversity. The older Wlad that could still pull the trigger understood his limitations and implemented a fine strategy albeit not the most visually pleasing strategy. I've always enjoyed Wlad when he's on a roll and dishing out dynamic punishment however I've also found him to be a walking talking paradox with his alpha male exterior and questionable spirit. Watching his fights vs Brewster and Sam Peter has never left my brain....he looked weak, vulnerable and insubstantial.

 

Wlad - shot. If so, perhaps Wilder should have aggressively gone after this fight as soon as Fury 2 began falling apart.

Surely a huge payday and a loss (against an ATG HW)(if it went that way) that he could get a 'pass' on and still come back into the mix from.

 

Femi is going to get his ass handed back to him.

 

It depends how Wlad looks in sparring. If he is putting guys to sleep and has his killer instinct back then AJ is in for a tough fight. If Wlad has a disaster camp then I think he pulls out of the fight with 'injury' and retires shortly after weighing things up. He doesn't need the money lets be honest and he won't risk the embarrassment of being KO'd either.

 

I think some are overstating how bad wlad looked in the last fight in which very little was landed by either fighter. It was a very uneventful flight, for the most part But he started to connect in the last round, and had fury stunned


But Wlad is now extremely focused on redeeming himself; that you can bet on ........And against Joshua I pick Wlad to win by knockout.... count on it

 

Wladimir is going to smash Joshua harder than Nistor did.

 

After the farce that was Fury-Vlad the only way Vlad can go lower is by suffering a rd 1 ko.

 

Is it "shotness" or "shotnicity" I get confused with words that have similar meanings, like tiredness and fatigue. Oh wait, I got it! Shotnicity is the state of being shot, while shotness is the degree of how shot a fighter is. Ok, carry on.

I see this fight going 1 of 2 ways. Wlad looks real good, better than he's looked in a while and wins an impressive fight or AJ blasts him out within 3. I think This fight is AJ's to lose. He's younger faster and has every physical advantage a young fighter should have over the older fighter. No way can Wlad resemble anything like his fight with Fury. AJ can use his athleticism to keep Wlad moving, never let WK plant his feet to get any power shots off and attack, attack, attack!! At this stage of WK's career, I just feel that AJ can do more.

 

dudes going to knock joshua out in two rounds and then all the other heavyweights will go back into hiding and ducking him.
