Andrew Golota vs Wladimir Klitschko

Golota is way too mentally fragile. If we're talking about the Emanuel Steward trained version of Wladimir, he tells him to jump right on Golota early. May be similar to Lewis vs Golota.

 

He got dropped with two rounds to go and quit.

Peter was durable enough to walk through Wlad and Oleg's artilery. He applies pressure and hits hard. I don't like Golota's chances against that. Who did he outbox that could pressure and hit hard?

Oh hell, McCline blew out Grant and whipped Briggs. Golota and Briggs is more of an even fight.

 

Horse ****.

 

predicatable response from club K of course, but why you? it doesnt change the incontestable undeniable iron fact that neither wlad nor even vitali dared face him, despite a massive crossover in careerspans.

 

Golota was too busy getting blasted out in one round by Lamon Brewster to be on either man's radar.

 

I don't get why people think Golota would be able to hang with either Klitschko. The only time he really impressed me was against Bowe, and Bowe never really wowed me like he seems to have wowed other people.

Wlad has better footwork, more power, is more accurate, is better technically and he has a better jab.

To offset that Golota has better inside skills, slips punches better and oh, yeah, he's as crazy as a bag of cats with squashed tails. But Golota won't get to show off his inside skills because Ruiz demonstrated that it's very easy to jab n grab Golota, something which Dr Octopus is the best in the business at.

Very likely what will happen is the usual Wlad fight.

He will outjab Golota from the outside and use distance games to keep him at the end of it. If Golota closes the distance Wlad will either feed him his tremendous right straight down the pipe or tie him up. Later, in round 9-10 when Wlad feels Golota is sufficiently degraded to risk his no-claims insurance bonus, he will open up and bundle AG out of there. But actually it probably won't make it that far, because I'd bet dollar to donuts that Golota gets frustrated as hell with the fight and, in a clinch, feeds a thunderous uppercut to Wlad's ballsack and gets himself DQ'd.

 

Golata walks into punches. Straight in. Throw a hard punch at 12:00 and it doesn't miss. That's why he was blasted out by the hitters. Wlad might have the hardest punch to see of all the hitters Golata faced. Blind him with a jab or 2 and Golata walks in and eats a right hand he never see's. All over. Or just come over his low left hand. Bang. Automatic opening & the opponent doesn't even have to bother creating it. There's a reason he never lasted against the hitters.

And once hurt, where does Andrew go in that ring to kill time? With that defense?

 

golota uses his superior lateral movement and head movement, jabs his way to the inside and puts his combos on wlad like he did on bowe.
except wlad wont take it as good as bowe did and wont fight back like bowe did, he would get knocked out.

 

Golota is too much of a headcase. Even if he gets to Wlad's chin, he'd probably mess it up with his poor finishing skills.

 

well wlad isn't really hard to finish. only sam peter didn't manage to finish him after he hurt him.
golota finishing skills were fine in the bowe fights, it was bowe's unbelievable heart and chin that stop him

 

Golota superbly outboxed Witherspoon (albeit past his prime, Tim came in with a gameplan and was no pushover), Ferguson, Navarre, and Norris.

 

Spoon and Norris both were well past their due dates. Norris is the only pressure fighter you listed whom despite being undersized gave Golota some serious problems, and none of these guys at the stage of their career were better than a prime Peter.

 

It took Peter what, six rounds get rid of Oleg Maskaev? And this was a version of Maskaev who wasn't even near the top of his game that night they fought in Mexico.

The thing is, Andrew would survive Samuel's big shots early on, and from there adapt his gameplan. He goes on to outbox the Nigerian, who will occasionally hit the Polish heavyweight on the back of the head Conor McGregor-style (those of you who remember can attest to Peter having a habit of rabbit punching his foes). Peter loses a point for rabbit punching Golota on the break, whereby the referee takes a point away from the "Nigerian Nightmare". Meanwhile, this boosts Golota's confidence and the Polish hero amps up his punching power to drop Peter twice in the fight (one after another) just like he dropped Ruiz twice in their contest on Nov. 13, 2004. And just as in the Ruiz fight, Golota, who did have trouble finishing off his opponents, is also unable to pull the trigger against Peter as the Pole is already past his prime (assuming they fought in '07 or '08). This time, though, the politics of boxing will not allow the same fighter to get screwed on the judges' scorecards yet again (see Byrd, Ruiz fights) and Golota takes a close yet hard-fought unanimous decision victory, smiling while having his hand raised and whispering "third time's a charm" into the camera before the post-fight interview. Finally, Golota would have been crowned heavyweight champ.

 

yeh he didnt have a great chin by any means. Brewster wasnt much either true, but he certainly was avoided by Wlad until he was retired half blind.

Wlad knew who to avoid to prevent a horrible string of ko losses.

 

Oleg had won about 13 straight fights in 5 years, including an excellent win over Rahman. Oleg and Golota are about on the level, not a huge class difference at all.

This is ridiculous fan fiction.
