Walking forward with absolutely no clue about what he's going to do. It shows a lack of ability on his part but it's not illegal. Nor do those tactics make it legal for Wlad to excessively hold.
Wlad rarely holds. When his opponent charges in with his head down he put his weight on top of him. He rarely grabs. If you look at the clip above, it's Mormeck who actually holds with his left arm.
Where do you see Wlad holding there? Are completely out of your mind? P.S. Shouldn't have asked the last question:rofl
I actually thought it was a very solid performance from Wlad. Was impressed. Great jab, didn't let himself get put in a position to take a big shot and has a thunderous right hand. And got the guy out of there early. Mormeck was diving into Wlad most the time, Wlad does hold, we know that but its very effective Great performance
Gotta give it to the haters. They are raising the bar. Knocking out the opponent quickly is not enough anymore. Now Wlad has to do it in a certain style. :nut
Wladimir can keep knocking guys out like some sort of circus show, but I find his style very dull. I laughed when I watched the clinch lowlights posted, when the ref gives warnings when punches are being thrown inside the clinch. There wouldn't have been many punches in the "fight" if those weren't allowed. Let them work out of it, most good boxers do.
Mormeck constantly moved forward, head down with no intent of throwing a punch. Wlad either moves backwards, wearing himself out, or stops him by holding, wearing Mormeck out
No matter how Wlad fights or against who, his nuthuggers call it masterclass. That fight, and I use that term very loosely, was a ****ing abortion. From the choice of opponent, to the style it was fought, to the non effort of Mormeck. If you were to grade that fight on a scale compared to the history of title fights, it is a resounding F. Keith
