Why are fans of 'The Sweet Science' (Floyd/Bhop fans) slow to defend the Klitschkos?

    Performance of Lewis and Klitschko with Steward as their trainer (Steward joined Lewis after the McCall loss; Steward joined Klitschko before the Brewster loss):

    Lewis ------> 18 fights, 16 wins, 1 loss, 1 draw. 12 KO's --- 66.7% KO percentage
    Klitschko ---> 15 fights, 14 wins, 1 loss, 0 draw. 10 KO's --- 66.7% KO percentage

    Maybe because Wlad has performed better under Steward than Lewis had?

    Steward was in Wlad's corner for the Brewster win. Was he in his corner for the Brewster loss?

    And don't forget to disclaim your point, whatever it was, while you're at it.

    how many combos do you see floyd throw?if your watching the same floyd im watching the answer is not many.he does the same thing every fight jab and move the first three rounds then throw a enough overhand right counters to win the rounds,he almost never throws more than two punchs at a time and those two will always be jab ,straight right.arturo gatti was the only guy he every really just let his hands go on and thats only because he knew that his hand speed was so much faster than his.

    Would that amount of jabs constitute a jabber. It seems that *****s thin gayweather is a jabber!

    3 Reasons:

    1. Klitschkos are not American.

    2. Klitschkos aren't even black.

    3. Klitschkos haven't been to jail, beat up their wife/gf or blown all their money on shinny flashy bling. What kinda role model is that?

    Klits are boring!

    No variety to their games....their fights are plain and the way they fight is plain.

    B-hop and Floyd are far more versatile and have shown they can fight in different styles.

    Lots of reasons for this

    1 Intelligent
    2 Wealthy
    3 Successful
    4 Large in Stature
    5 Famous
    6 Looks (Not Vitaly)
    7 WHITE

    I dont give a **** what anyone says. These are the real reasons people hate the Bros.
