I was not impressed by Wladimir's perfomance versus Rahman

Yeah, it sure is disappointing when a fighter pitches a total shutout and wins by stoppage against a former title holder, isn't it?

 

atsch

 

Wlad would have stopped Rahamn earlir if he want it. but sadly Wlad changes his stile since geting KFOT by Brewster. And the once exciting Wlad is now a boring play safe boxers that are the one killing the sport. Wlad was a monster when he was an ofensive machine with no FEAr of getting koed, a very exciting fighter but now he fights with fear, and i hate when a ighter fight that way.

 

whether you like him or not....Wlad is the recognized champ....OUR heavyweight champion!!
until someone can beat him.....and it wont happen anytime soon

 

i don't recognize him as the champ

 

sounds like u really know ur boxing :-(

Wladimir Klitschko wasn't hit with 1 meaningful punch and systematically broke down Rahman down with his jab. Steward mentioned how the left hook was key to the gameplan when they saw how susceptible Hasim was to it.

Perfect gameplan. Perfect execution.

Personally, I loved the performance. He schooled Rahman. Made him look worse than a sparring partner. Shows how dominant wlad really is.


That must really **** off the Klitschko haters :yep

 

qft.

 

I disagree. This is because different fighters win by using different styles, therefore Lewis's performance shouldn't necessarily be compared to Vlad's.

Also, that idea that Vlad should have been more aggressive in order to dispatch Rahman sooner isn't necessarily correct. Had Vlad been more aggressive, he would have left himself open, and that would have given Rahman his only possible chance at landing a fight-winning right hand bomb.

If Vlad had been aggressive and ended up kayoed by a lucky Rahman punch, people would be criticizing him today for not being intelligent and careful.

All in all, I think Vlad's performance was quite impressive. He was totally dominant. He won with complete and utter ease. Rahman couldn't lay a glove on Vlad.

 

If you seen Rahman face when the very first jabs of the fight landed he clearly felt them and I thought it would only take Wlad 3-4 rounds to finnish him, even with his cautious style.

He (Wlad) was even more backward at coming forward than I had figured though.

Some might say 'why take risks' etc, but you're taking a risk by letting the other guy stay in the fight and giving him the chance to adapt. His hesitancy could well prove to be his downfall if fights Haye. There is no doubt Haye will take risks and that could force Wlad into the kind of fight he doesn't seem to like.

 

Who gives a ****? He beat him easily. :roll: Tough cookies you wanted it to happen earlier. I picked fifth round T/KO, but I'm not mad it didn't happen. Just didn't work out. Doesn't take away from his win, he fought brilliantly. So he doesn't have killer instinct to finish guys quickly...is this really a ****ing noteworthy revelation?

 

Wlad took the cautious route and carefully put the Rock away in 7 rounds of one fight (1-0).


Lennox was less cautious, took 9 rounds to deal with Hasim and two fights. (1-1)

 

You can complain about him all the **** you want, but the man keeps winning. Simple as that. It's boring at times, but why the **** should he change his style when it's worked perfectly so far?

 

I expect he'll need therapy when he hears about this.


Not bad enough to have WBA, WBC, WBO and IBF.

Now we have the PBO !

 

What they always do. Continue to hate. We can look forward to many more hate-fests because Wlad is just going to keep on winning.
