    Nonsense. Wlad uses movement to create space and has boxed off the back foot. For a guy you hate so much, you don't watch his fights much.

    Maybe you ought to watch Pinklon Thomas / Tyson, then.

    After a torrid first round Thomas jab n grabbed Tyson till the sixth.

    I put a thought out there that if The Pink Man can jab n grab Tyson, then so can Klinchko, who is the master at that.

    I definitely think that skills + size is going to be a factor in this one.

    Actually, after rewatching Pinklon vs Tyson, I'm of the opinion that "clinching" Wlad has an edge over Tyson, whatever version you like. No clinching, and the edge goes to prime Tyson.

    It's hilarious the way people are writing off Wladimir in this one. Tyson had problems with Mitch Green and MAJOR problems with Buster Douglas. Guys who are tall boxer/punchers with good jabs. Wladimir is a better boxer, with a better jab and more power than both those guys.

    VERY good chance that Wladimir at his best (2008-2013) would outbox Mike and score a late TKO or possible KO.

    But... Mike, being an ATG heavyweight himself with great power and speed, could also score the KO! But my money would be on Wlad prime for prime because of the mastery at range and the power that could keep Mike honest.

    Thomas got clipped with counters for almost every jab he landed. Same with Biggs. Both those guys took horrendous batterings.
    You have never watched these fights and are only parroting what you read in a troll thread in the classic a few months ago.
    Your argument for Wlad winning is based off fights in which Mike beat guys half to death. Biggs in the first round shot a jab and got his jaw immediately kracked by a lighting fast right hand counter. If that shot had landed on Wlad he would have been counted out for the count.
    Jabbing Tyson with nothing behind it was suicide you ignoramus. Go watch what happened to Williams. Thats what would happen to WK.

    No.. Thats wrong. Incorrect. You're wrong again. Bigss was dancing around doing an Ali impression. Wlad has never , EVER used that swift fluid around the ring in his life.
    YDKSA WK.

    "mastery at range " ???? :risas3::risas3::risas3:

    Its that why he earned the nick name Grabimir Clinchko ??? Because he was a master at keeping guys at range? HAHAHAHAHA

    Bullshyte.

    Not in the first.

    They're even on Youtube you f@cking clown :smash2:

    Wlad is one of the hardest HW punchers in history you twerp.

    Bigss may use the "swift fluid around the ring" but Klitschko is clean.

    I'm guessing that you are some kind of expert on "swift fluid around the ring", now?

    :b2:

    OK, sure. :risas3:

    Wlad does clearly box off the back foot and does use quick short bursts of movement, usually backwards to create the space he needs. But his movement and ability to create space with it is horribly overrated.

    Yes he's very fast on his feet and light on his feet for such a big man but his lateral movement is pretty poor. It's why Wlad is forced to clinch so much when he is up against a persistently aggressive opponent like Povetkin. Vitali had far better movement, he consistently circles around his opponent unlike Wlad who tends to move back in straight lines most of the time meaning opponents who keep coming tend to get to him and force him to clinch.

    F*cking A post right there ^

    Agree.

    He moves backwards and forwards, and ties guys up when they're onto him. Never said any different.

    Soon, however, we will get the Dinoversion of Wlad, who has blocks of cement tied to his feet, a pyss poor jab, a jaw held on by a pink ribbon, six arms so that he can hug better and a wad of cash in his beltline to pay the referee and judges off with, that cheating bastich ...

    Don't forget Dino's mastery of "swift fluid around the ring". ;)

    Actually that has the potential to be a great fight. Could be a slugfest while it lasts.

    I agree. I still think Joshua will get cracked harder than he ever has in his life. Even harder than Nistor hit him. Lol

    Even the ghost of Tyson post prison would KO Wlad in 3 rounds. With no clinching allowed against a prime Tyson it would be over in 30 seconds.
