    I think we need to stop hyped contenders like the last 3 guys to fight the klitschko brothers getting a chance, its not helping when the guys get in the ring and can barely do anything other than try to defend themselves

    Yeah we're the ones in the minority....... the only people that wanna watch them are nuthuggers like you. YOU are the sheep for letting them fight like this. It's ok you are allowed to say bad things about them and still be a fan.

    Why are you picking out my post as opposed to others who said the same thing? ****ing stalker. Wlad is a HW they're held to different standards whether you want to admit it or not, especially when he's so much bigger than the guys he's fighting. Wlad is good at what he does and is the best HW in the world I'll give him that but that doesn't mean he's fun to watch.

    If that's your pleasure... than stick to watching and talking about the lower weight classes then. I actually have a brain capacity that allows me to enjoy all of the weight classes, and all sorts of different fights and fighting styles. It's amazing.

    I also know that if I just didn't enjoy watching heavyweights... as seems to be your claim... then I simply would ignore the entire situation. I wouldn't spend all day on the computer talking trash about it, over and over and over and over and over and over and over... like you guys do. It's pathetic.

    So let's say Haye knocks Wlad out.

    Will you be a fan of Haye then?

    I "let them fight like this"? What sort of altered sense of reality do you live in?

    Americans are dumb because they don't love the Klitschkos? Their fights are predictable, one sided, and relatively dull. Not only that but they really don't try to market themselves in the U.S. Why should Americans be interested in them?

    If they are too good then they should be blowing all these guys out early.

    Obviously you need to consider your original point more carefully. Wlad is not a worldwide celebrity. He might be well known within boxing circles and possibly in Europe where he is something of a star. Maybe also from his amateur background.

    Anyway, US fans (which I am not) don't appreciate Wlad's style because he is boring. It's not that he boxes that puts them off, it's not that he controls range so effectively: it's that he hurt Chambers in the second round and waited ten more rounds to finish him for fear of getting tagged, despite having the ability to turn out the lights at pretty much any stage.

    That's a disgrace. Great fighters have that killer instinct, to always want the stoppage. He took it because it was there, not cause he actively wanted it.
