Are the Klitschko haters good or bad for boxing?

Guess what happens if he beats their beloved Haye? Haye becomes instant bum so Wlad did not really accomplish anything by beating him.

 

they tear down todays heavyweight division.


come on man you cant tell me todays division is worth ****.

i like the bros but they aint being tested by the scrubs that make up the rest of the division.

the bros are a class apart.

 

Vitali is good for boxing, because he often comes forward & wants to fight.

Wlad is bad, because of his negative & boring style to protect his fragile chin, he is scared to fight & holds way too much.

 

let me add i hope Wlad takes hay out early.

haye win would be terrible for boxing

im british btw

 

Without haters and nut suckers the forums would be dead.

So, good for it, i s'pose.

 

Feel free to provide examples of this, I've never seen any Klit hater post stuff like that :huh

WALDO doesn't have the worst chin in history, but he doesn't have a good chin either.

Of course the Klits would beat some of the previous champs from history, not even the haters argue with that, what they do argue with is the Klit lovers saying they'd beat EVERYONE from history, when they can't even clean out the shitty division they are currently in.

Leon Spinks and Henry Cooper, give me a ****ing break, don't even know where you're going with that one.

 

I can't tell by your post but are you saying today's hw division isn't trash?

 

In all liklihood, as many people watch the Klit fights hoping to watch them lose as watch them win. If you understand ratings and ticket sales at all, you know that the number of viewers and ticket sales is all that matters, not who they root for. Mayweather is another prime example of this.

Also, most Klit detractors (outside of the Haye loyalists) are 30+ years of age and have seen decent heavyweight fights in our lifetimes. We are also more likely to watch old fights on ESPN Classic, etc. and know a bit more than a 20 year old Klit lover who wasn't exposed to the great heavywieghts that came before them.

 

Post proof then, I've not seen them.

I've nothing against fans supporting the fighters they like, it's what keeps the sport alive. It has to be said though that the Klit-lovers are the worst of all fanboys. They have many decent victories there's no denying that, what pisses me off most is the bull**** excuses for their losses.

 

Haye and his fans are bad for Boxing.

 

I think the Klitschko's get plenty of respect, it's their fans that are nutty. Not all of them, but a good percentage.

Fact is most feel that Wlad is in the top 20 ATG list and that the only reason Vitali isn't on the list is because he didn't fight enough or retain a title long enough.

And many, including me, think that the version of Vitali who fought Lewis, would likely beat any verison of Wlad. That's debatable of course, but what isn't is that they are both damn good fighters, but unfortutely their comp leaves something to be desired. Not their fault, but it is what it is.

Any unfortunately beating Haye, isn't all that damn impressive in my books..Haye is basically a cruiserweight with very limited heavyweight experience.

 

People seem to have a lot of misplaced hatred towards the Klits, probably stemming from the depressing lack of talent in the HW division outside of the Klits. But they personally don't deserve a lot of criticism they get, I mean their accolades speak for themselves. Personally I think boxing needs haters as much as they need purists and fanboys.
