A lot of the clinches that Wlad engages him aren't even of his making. His opponents initiate them plenty of times too (Povetkin comes to mind)....
Nope.
The best technicians are almost always clinchers (Wlad, Floyd, and Ward).
My point is that he doesn't have to be at his best to beat the guys he is because he is just that much better than them.
I'm guessing all of the rumors of Wlad working Wilder like a fiddle are not based on such unfounded assumptions after all.
Brewster and especially the South African golfer would have bloodied and battered Wilder's face beyond any discernible recognition.
Why throw with full intent when you don't have to? That only goes to show the kind of physical gifts that Wlad was born with. He doesn't even need...
Everyone that has sparred or fought Wlad says otherwise. And he doesn't throw with the intent that others do.
Povetkin is 6'2. Not even close to being a midget even by modern day heavyweight standards.
I guess Jameel McCline was lying when he said Wilder was the hardest hitter he's been in there with?
So because Wlad has been stopped three times in the past, any fighter, regardless of how abysmal they are in their talent or toolbox, would KO...
lmao GGG would probably hand Wilder his ass.
If Wlad was in there tonight he would have blasted the Frenchman out the second he felt comfortable and found his rhythm.
I wonder if it was Wlad in their tonight with the Frenchman instead of Wilder? hmmmmm.........:think
Tough choice, but in the end Golovkin's power has really impressed me.
