After watching Klitschko v Thompson last night ...

Ibragimov and Thompson are both awkward southpaws, one being tall with agood chin, the other being short and afraid to engage.. Wlad did what he needed to do to beat both, dominated Iggy, and gave Tony is first knockout loss..

David Haye is nothing like either of them, and probably easier to hit than both.

 

Correct me if I am wrong, but I have never yet seen Wlad look good against southpaws

 

It will never be enough for his detractors..................they won't be happy until he loses.................which means they'll never be happy again. :deal :thumbsup

 

With the exception of Chris Byrd 2X you are correct.

 

:rofl True. Long live the King Wladimir!

 

Hes going to do a Corrie Sanders on that china, book it.

 

He was a mandatory defense because he's big, rangey with huge reach & a good jab. He'd never been knocked out before & he was on a 27 fight winning streak. He KO'd Krasniqi in his last bout too.

 

Didn't you say the same about Thompson? If not you know you wanted to.................:yep You guys are so predictable.

 

No because Thompson is rubbish and old and isn't on the same level as the Hayemaker.

 

no great option to select in the poll. wlad is still prime at 32. he's showed the same, good and bad, for some years now. that said he is beatable as he has always been. when someone does beat him if it occurs in the next 2 years or so, it won't be because he's old.

 

Exactly. Haye fights similar to the way Vitali fights, leaning forward with his hands low trying to get his opponents to swing so he can counter. The difference is Haye isn't as good at it as Vitali is & Vitali has an iron chin if the occasional punch does get through.

Haye is tailor made for Wladimir

 

Wlad fans must be worried if Haye connects that it could be all over for the Wlad reign :happy

 

I think Haye would have a very hard time with Thompson. :nono Tony's jab is better & longer IMO.
