If Wlad was 3 or 4 inches shorter, he would be a crap boxer!!!

:good Brilliant first post.

All the Klitschko haters always have the conditions "if" or "but"

 

Height can be a hindrance. Quite a big one.

In the end, boxing is about using the tools you have to best efficiency on the ring. If Wlad was smaller, he'd probably be a lot more mobile too. You can't really say what might have happened... What you can say is what you see, what is happening right now and right now... Wlad will make short work of any competition he's presented.

 

If so, why does Valuev suck and why is Tony Thompson a 6'5 southpaw not holding any belts?

 

thx:-(

 

Valuev has no power, mobility, jab...or anything else really.

And he still got to be a beltholder like Wlad.

 

Let's entertain this thought. IF Klitschko were 3 or 4 inches shorter, would he in turn be dumber as well? Would he have ever become a professional boxer in the first place? If he did, would he even be a heavyweight? Would he not understand that he is 6'2" or 6'3" and not 6'7", therefore fighting like a shorter fighter (shorter than 6'7" anyway) rather than a taller one? Should he fight on his knees next time around or should he continue to use his height to his advantage?

 

It don't ****ing matter. Vladimir isn't going to get any shorter.

Size can help only so much without a high skill level to back it up we have seen guys like Michael Grant, Awkinwande, Valuev, etc.

 

Stupid thing to say, dumbo. Lennox especially when he was young, had many technical flaws. It's only when Mannuel Steward took over that Lennox became a great boxer.
And how is that? By utilizing your height to the best of your advantage. In fact, heck, Lewis was flawed to a much greater level than either Klitschkos before getting supreme training.

Wlad is the white Lennox in almost every way appart from chin. Lewis had a better chin.

 

i wont take anything away from wlads win tonight but you have to agree!
If chambers and klit would be the same size!? chambers would land those crisp sharp counter punches all night on wlad

 

A paper belt holder. That most thought was a robbery in the 1st ruiz fight.But also Chris Byrd was a title holder, and he was small and chubby.

Chambers just dominated the 6'7 Dimitrenko don't forget that.

 

His style is based around his height and reach.
