Many fans from Derek's hometown seem to think he is/was ducked by Wladimir. People seem to believe that Derek's style would have troubled Wladimir, and he would have KO'd him with the first shot he lands due to the chin. Do you agree?
I dont think so, I think considering wlad went after haye, who was by far the bigger pay day and at the time a much better fighter, id say he didnt duck.
I don't think he ducked Chisora through any kind of fear of fighting him, but I do think he feigned injury twice to get out of his contract. The first time he pulled out of the contract with injury he was pictured playing golf. There have been sources saying that Wlad did not enter training camp until 2-3 weeks before the fight. Then the second time he pulled out with an injury he signed a contract to fight David Haye on the very same day. atsch
