Looks like you've been around boxing for a while. I seldom see posts this insightful on this board. IMO if WK had started his pro career with Steward and stayed with him he would have broken Marciano's record.
Good Analysis. What role did wlad's jab play in the fight though? Brewster claimed afterwards that he just could not get past it and it was the reason he lost. Also other commentators mentioned the fact that Wlad killed him with the jab. It is good to hear he is moving to the side now and not leaving himself open to counters.
Though I was pulling from Wlad from the beggining and he came through, the fight yesterday didn't really do a damn thing for him. I am glad he avenged the loss but I don't really see him in a different light. I hope he will fight someone like Peter next.
I'm the same with Floyd Mayweather Jr. People have claimed I am a nuthugger because I always say he is going to win or beat another fighter fairly easily, but it isn't because I WANT him to. I bought the Oscar PPV because I thought Oscar had a better chance than anyone of KOing Floyd.
