I didn't think of that. Maybe being the oldest guy to regain a HW title would be a motivator for him Good point.
Somehow I think the Fury loss irks him. Fury is a clown and I think it gets under Vlad's skin. Vlad has to watch the video of that fight and think "Why didn't I just let my hands go????" Wilder was a sparring partner for Vlad and Vlad has spoken respectfully of Wilder's power. After his loss to Joshua, Vlad spoke respectfully of him and wished him well. Fury? I'm guessing is the guy Vlad would love to hurt. You know brother Vitali gives him crap about it at every Christmas Eve dinner. 8
Big news. I would hope no Jonathan banks, but from the sound of things that is the way he is going to go. Doubt Fury will Rematch Wladimir, he did not want to before, he’ll go down the Ruiz/Joshua rout. I don’t think Wladimir has a good win left in him to be honest, he was to far gone his last few fights. It will be fun to watch though, and expect a very entertaining fight.
I can't see Vlad changing trainers now. Old dog and new tricks thing. It can take time to gel with a new team. Vlad does not have time. Id be surprised if he didn't stay with the same team.
If Wlad does come back and he gets a fight with crazy Fury.....you can bet he will let his hands go. Ibeabuchi was not doing so well with Byrd....if memory serves. Then his corner told him to hit that mother****er anywhere. Shoulders, hips arms...didn't matter. Ibeabuchi knocked that ass out. I am predicting if he comes back and fights Fury...he will knock HTFO.
I have said this before but Klitschko has to feel like crap seeing what Ruiz did to Joshua. Fury faking injuries and tying up Wlad’s career for 18 months didn’t do him any favors either. Wlad had Joshua in the same position Ruiz did but Wlad let him off the hook and Ruiz didn’t.
