Wladimir Klitschko '50-50' On Anthony Joshua Rematch

The boring Klitschko era is over. Much respect for his achievements, but retire please.

 

27 years old boxers are in their prime years.

He went life and death with a 42 year old Wlad and was fortunate that Wlad decided to go easy on him after knocking Joshua down.

 

Remember Wlad Klitschko when he had only 19 fights, Anthony Joshua would smash that version of Wlad Klitschko
within 5 rounds.

 

I think he owes himself and his fans in Germany an easy touch retirement match after his long career. PLEASE PICK WARD, WALD, I'LL NEVER FORGET YOU. XOX.

 

Physical prime maybe but Wlad at 27 had 140 amateur bouts and a pro record of 40-2 (had just lost to Sanders) compared to Joshua's 40+ amatuer bouts and 19-0 pro record... Joshua has a lot more experience to gain in that respect before reaching his boxing prime...

 

If you believe that AJ is in his prime, you don't know anything about boxing.

Was Wlad Klitschko in his prime when he had only 19 fights ? No he wasn't.

It's logical that a fighter gets better with more experience at elite level, the most fighters weren't in their primes
when they had only 19 fights.

 

We know you will.... You're completely consumed and obsessed with the guy.

 

Not necessarily, as Wlad wasn't as cautious back then.

 

Didn't Joshua have over 40 amateur fights or was that dreamt up?

It's good to see you suddenly appear to stick up for your God. It must have been agonising have to wait for a Joshua thread

 

Also Wlad was 30 years old when he won IBF/IBO, almost 32 when he added WBO, 33 when he won The Ring and Lineal titles and 35 when he won WBA(super) so Joshua has many years to be as great as Wlad (he may never be as great but he has the opportunity)

 

You think 40 amateur fights are a lot ? Wladimir Klitschko had 140.

 

That's exactly the reason.

 

As I stated above Wlad had 180+ fights by 27 and Joshua only 60+ by the same age... So not a direct comparison on primes...

 

I didn't say that. I was just correcting you as you were pretending that Joshua has only fought 19 times.

 

He has only 19 professional fights, this is a fact, you can't compare amateur fights with professional fights and 40
amateur fights are as good as nothing.
