Borenard And Wlad: The Double standard

I dont agree with what the other idiot said but those are two of the worst fights ive ever seen.

 

Because BH is a black american and Klit is a white "eurobum".

 

:verysad

 

I dont have any idea what are Wlad's 5 most exciting fights,all the fights ive seen were pretty bad.

For Hopkins i would pick:

1-Trinidad
2-Glenn Johnson
3-Pavlik
4-Echolls II
5-Lipsey

 

Pre-Sanders Klitschko was a lot of fun to watch. I also really enjoyed the Peter fight, but maybe that's because there was a lot of tension because of the belief that it was a competitive fight.

 

They are both boring, but at least wlad is clean and fights like a gentlman. Hopkins is so ****ign dirty. He cant fight clean cuz he know theirs a good chance he will lose. But also, bhop is old and knows how to manipulate the rules. However, he also complained like a ***** in the calzaghe fight. Also, people **** on wlad for not fighting good fighters, but bhos resume wasnt that impressive before his win over keith holmes. Alot of his 21 defense are against guys who were very calzaghe resume like...

 

Agreed, but I remember putting some blame on McCline, too. I've never seen such a tall man look so frail.

 

Maybe cuz Bernard's tough, streetwise persona (and the fact that he did time) makes him more appealing to people. At least to Americans anyway. If you said the heavyweight champion of the world is gonna be a Ukrainian who has a Ph.D and fights in a controlled and economical manner don't count on him having much of an American fanbase. That's just the way it is. It's more appealing to be a badass cuz that's what sells. People wanna see trainwrecks. Not that Bernard is a trainwreck. Far from it as he's become a shrewd businessman over the years. The thing is that underneath the nice suit is still a man who would throw a Puerto Rican flag on the floor and tell another guy he would never lose to him cuz he's white, which by the way, is the reason Joe Calzaghe told Benard to take a walk when he came looking for a rematch. Those types of antics are apparently enough to make people watch Bernard's fights even though they are almost assuredly going to see a negative fight with a lot of trickery and questionable tactics.

 

I don't wanna turn this into a social commentary but I've lived in America long enough to know what sells tickets.

 

lmao... THREAD CLOSED on the first response. :rofl

 

well, hopkins is boring now but if you saw a young hopkins, u'd realize he wasnt always like that.

 

I would never pay to watch bernard fight.. ever.
