Blad as in:"lacking in special interest, liveliness, individuality, etc". Paparazzi were doing their thing at a restaurant where a music celeb was eating and coincidentally Wladimir Klitschko was going to dinner at the restaurant aswell. So the general media asks him some questions. Sounds like a good opportunity to connect to the general people and become somewhat popular, right? Fail,...as Wladimir comes back with no special interest spark at all. Video: http://www.tmz.com/videos?autoplay=...c-03fa-45db-8de4-ebee507da68e&isShareURL=true Paparazzi: How much money will it take for you to fight against your brother? WK: I will not fight my brother. Paparazzi: 5 billion dollar? WK: I will not fight my brother. Paparazzi: What if Bill Gates decides to give his fortune for the fight? WK: I will not fight my brother. Paparazzi (desperately trying to get something interesting out of him): If you could fight any heavyweight dead or alive... who would you fight? WK: I will fight anybody besides my brother atsch Paparazzi: What about Kimbo Slice? WK: That would be interesting. He couldn't even mention Ali, Tyson or Lewis as a dreamfight??? Does he even know HW history? And people are still wondering why he isn't as popular as the previous champions? Somebody please buy this guy a more interesting personality. Please.
I'm not saying he should be a lunatic. But he could at least come up with some interesting answers like mention somewhat of a dream match. So many great fighters in the past and you say "i fight anybody besides my brother"? That's just dull on a new level. It's called promotion of yourself and connecting to the general public....learn some lessons from the past great fighters.
Wlad does not need to promote himself. He is a mega star in Germany, where it counts. English is not even his native language.
Wlad is boring, more so behind a mic. His personality holds him down alot in the states, the average person here dont even know who he is.
You should get off your 'puter and go to your bedroom quickly. That sneaky ******* Wlad, is having a threesome with your old lady and your momma. On the other hand, maybe you should just leave. WTF are you going to do if you burst in on them ?
What is he supposed to say to idiots who think Kimbo Slice and Chuck Liddell are potential opponents ?
Well said,jazzo! Besides he is one of the most popular heavy weight boxers of all times. Maybe not in the states,but he is a household name in a lot of other countries.
I think it's disrespectful to talk about how one would beat any of the past champions... What's the point ? WOuld you respect Wlad if he said he could out box Ali or Louis ?
It was overly polite of him to even answer any question of a paparazzo; most people (rightly so) ignore them entirely. Ridiculous thread really.
What dumb ass questions! Wlad has already made it very clear he would never fight his brother. Then asking about him fighting Kimbo Slice or Chuck Liddell. Really? WTF atsch
