    Yes it is not crowd pleasing, and it does let the fans down

    However, boxing = Hit and don't get hit

    How does he let the sport down when he executes it's true meaning?

    Or should he fight more like ricky hatton? Is that real boxing to you?

    You just said he is not crowd pleasing yourself! Why do I need to explain it further?

    I grew up watching boxing when fighters would bash each other to **** to win the prize. These days, fighters want to do as little as possible to win. Which is best?

    So you're saying a fighter who has a shaky chin should get into tear ups with power punchers?

    Even when he has the option of winning a lopsided decision while barley getting hit?

    The best is hit as much as possible without being hit yourself, that is what every boxer should strive for

    Incorrect. Very disappointing performance from a running man not willing to engage and take a punch to unload its own. Very simple.... honestly :yep

    You are only supposed to do that when you are losing/down on points

    Unlike the fighters you watched Ks have dedicated themselves to the sport from the very early age and stayed focused for decades. Didn't get lazy or overweight between the fights. Didn't talk BS on national tv marketing themselves as the "Greatest!", etc...

    Enjoy them while they last. You wan't see this kind of phenomena for a while if ever.

    Wlad has a great heart, never quit in a fight.

    And after his loss to Brewster he worked his way back to the top, he stays to Emanuel. This shows how great his heart and character is.

    No, even when Vlad was drugged he still did his best.............and he was drugged against Brewster..........he gave no excuses against Sanders, he got up, he ran out of gas against Puritty years ago (11th round)when he was 20 years old, came back and was the first to stop Axel Schultz, something Foreman could not do.............
