    Klitschko did move his head off center line and as we saw vs Fury simply stepping back and leaning backwards is enough to neutralize WIlder for the most part. Fury got in trouble when he dipped down. Not to mention Wilder wouldn't make it past Klitschkos parry anyway. Wilders power is also irrelevant. Klitschko became gunshy vs people who could hit him, not to people who had a lot of power. Fury can't crack and he gave Klitschko anxiety. Haye had plenty of power yet Klitschko wasn't afraid to let his hands go at all.

    I wonder why no one made threads like these when Wlad was active? I can tell you why. He would have been sent straight to the looney bin.

    Probably yes, because even ancient slow Wladimir was competitive vs this era champions.

    Outside of landing a lucky shot? lol not a chance in hell. Levels apart in terms of class, technical ability and skills, competition, and besides Wlad already sparked him out in the gym x 2 and if that sparring rumour isn't actually true he, at the very least, bashed him up and dropped him heavily x 2 which is something that has been confirmed by numerous reputable sources like James Ali Bashir, Andy Lee, Javan ''Sugar'' Hill, and the poster Chef who was the Klitschko brother's chef and camp manager IIRC. Dillian Whyte has seen footage of Bum Squad getting KO'd in sparring and I'm pretty sure he was alluding to those sessions between Wlad and him.

    Even the 41 y/o way past it Wlad who came within a whisker of beating AJ would spark Bum Squad out and a prime one would KO1 or KO2 him at 50% of his best.

    In the US 100% Wilder would KTFO Wlad. In Germany Wlad's dodgy promoters, paid refs and illegal fight tactics might have found a way for him to win.

    Wlad was KO'd at every stage of his boring career. To say he wouldn't be KTFO by another champion is just a feeling his fans have that could never be based in fact. Wlad never faced a fighter who was taller, longer, faster, more athletic, harder hitting and with a better gas tank than him. Most of his wins were guys who were severly over-matched and Wlad still had to clinch, lean, paw his jab and generally cheat to get the W.
