Yes but he was still useless inside. He never really threw uppercuts and like Wlad he was taller than the vast majority of his opponents.
Ali couldn't fight inside either. The 70s version gives Wlad a run in terms of excessive clinching.
Wlad had good footwork especially for a man his size. The crown goes to Frank Bruno, by far the stiffest fighter I've ever seen.
The last I heard Plechko dropped down to cruiserweight. He was a crude entertaining fighter who would have been destroyed by the first decent...
He's going to do a Rocky 3 and work with Klitschko who will teach him to jab and grab the smaller Usyk.
A few weeks ago I would have said Joshua would destroy Ali, but look at what happened when he fought a skilled boxer the same size as Ali. It's...
Haye tried this against Klitschko and failed. It just makes you look worse IMO and could influence the judges in thinking you are being dominated...
Bowe was not a hard hitter at all. He landed a flush bare knuckle 1-2 on Larry Donald and it barely staggered him. He also landed countless bombs...
I always wonder how amateur boxing works. They don't get paid from what I understand, so how do they pay their trainer and gym? Do they have...
The money is in the pro game. The gold medal is nice but in terms of lasting legacy you have to be a good pro. Just look at Audley Harrison, he's...
There's no point in competing in 2 Olympics. He's short for a modern day heavy, he will need all the youth and athleticism to compete with these...
Easier said than done. We've seen that Usyk can actually hurt Joshua. If Joshua goes all out aggressive on Usyk there's a good chance that he gets...

His style is just ugly to watch. His jab is great but that right hand looks so loopy. Lewis, Wlad and even Joshua have much better straight...
Bowe simply didn't hit hard enough. He barely staggered Larry Donald after landing a sucker bare knuckled 1-2 in their press conference. He landed...
