    When was the last time a HW prospect offered such coherent, insightful analysis into a Klitschko fight?

    When a fighter can spot these things about a potential opponent it shows that they are a very dangerous and clever fighter.

    I think Amir Mansour is too clever for Wlad. He has spotted his flaws and now he deserves the chance to exploit them.

    All he said there was Wlad doesn't put his shots together and draws straight back from punches. Neither of those things are new criticisms

    Doesn't his date of birth (72) make him at least 40 years old? He has already spent most of his career in prison and the best name

    -hang on, am I being trolled here? I'll continue anyway-

    the best name on his record is Dominic Guinn (UD10). So a guy who is 40 years old but with only 16 fights, height 5'11 and best win Dominic Guinn suddenly deserves a shot at the title because he spotted that Wlad steps straight back from punches and doesn't throw combinations? Come on, man.

    Every single one of Wlad's opponents spots flaws in his technique... then they get in the ring with him.. ;)

    If Mansour landed this on Wlad's chin, game over.
    Wlad would have real trouble with a southpaw who has both speed and power.

    Nobody has ever dispatched of Hector Ferreyro this quickly. Seth Mitchell took 3 rounds.

    Mansour's age is misleading because the reason most 40 year olds struggle is because of the damage they suffer throughout their career. Mansour hasn't had that, he has the speed, power and reflexes of a fighter 15 years younger.

    Guinn has never been stopped. The guy's chin is absolute concrete. Wlad would not be able to stop Guinn.

    Fair enough on the Guinn comment

    If he can land a fight with Thompson, Adamek or Mitchell then fair play to him. He needs a pretty meteoric rise to the top now though. He might not have taken much damage in the ring but 40 is still 40, and most successful fighters at that age have a wealth of experience to overcome the physical decline somewhat. He may believe he has the physical capabilities of a fighter 15 years younger, but Vitali said similar things and post come back he was clearly far off what he once was in a physical sense

    I'll look out for this guy, anyway. With his age, hopefully he'll be willing to fight anyone and give us a fight worth watching in the near future :good

    Its pretty easy to pick holes in Anyones game.... Anyones (As we speak i am easily coming up with so called "Fatal" Flaws of my Favorite fighters.

    Its one thing to talk about them. Its another to exploit them in the ring. Simple as.

    And reading the article i woudnt consider this an in depth break down. This is something i could come up with pretty easily, and in terms of Boxing knowledge i am a infant.

    Man ,the only thing this Mansour has is a big mouth.... with all his "talent" and "excitement" he didn't do anything yet, but still he talks like if he could ever be a champ... Step up or shut up!

    Doesn't every opponent spot flaws in Wladimir's game, only to then get knocked when they fight?

    Mike Tyson already said - and you can adapt it to Wladimir:
    "Everyone has a plan 'till they get punched in the mouth"

    Mansour is a sadly wasted talent. He is undertall for the division, overold and yet still shows these kids how to not be overfat. He does have skill, he does talk a good game, he is an American. He does get knockouts. If he weren't in his forties and had knocked out someone of any real note I'm sure he would be a welcomed challenger. However, Klitschko fought a 39 and 40 fighter in 2012. It was not received well. He'd need a blessed load more incentive to fight another in 2013 with guys like Pulev and Fury who are worth more, actually ranked and actually more accomplished waiting for their shots.
