If Vitali hadn't had kickboxing injuries that impeded his lower body movement, the similarities would be even more striking. But there are parallels.
Yes. He is herky jerky and awkward. hard to get to. I never heard a lot of good advice coming from Wladimir's corner. Maybe I missed though getting up between rounds. was there any? Would like to see a rematch but only if Wladimir changes the whole strategy. If memory serves didn't Ibeabuchi (sp) have a similar situation years ago with a fighter? I think his corner told him to let his hands go and stop looking for the ko punch and hit him anywhere he could...hip, shoulders, arms etc. and a few rounds later he knocked him out. Wladimir seemed to just get into the rhythm of his opponents feints and freeze. Worse performance by Wladimir I have ever seen as far as output and style. etc.
