    Should Wlad have someone remove his little toes to reduce his balance, as well as throw acid in his left eye to reduce his judgement of distance:

    1: Yes, he needs to take these chances to make competitive fights.
    2. Hell no.

    If I was Wlad. I would do nothing, the point of boxing is to dominate the opponent.

    Stupid thread.

    Sorry.

    Sometimes people should think their threads out before making them, this is one of those instances where thought was needed.

    How about bombing these clearly uncompetitive types early for a change?

    It's clear he can do it if he wants to. He just seems scared to.

    Still, it's hard to argue against someone winning so easily, so often.

    Has no punch variety, and his movement is labored. Looks like a giant frankenstein monster just repeating the same **** over and over. It's too late for him to change though, he's gonna dominate these lame, undersized opponents, till somebody with the size, courage and speed fights him back and then we'll what happens.

    i'd keep winning the fights the way he does. his losses were pretty brutal. better "safe" than in a wheelchair or worse trying to fight out of your comfort zone to impress people who will still dislike you no matter how you fight.

    This is exactly the type of attitude that doesn't belong in boxing. Like some of Chamber's size really had a chance to hurt Wlad. He wasn't fighting Tyson here to be that cautious. Real boxing fans see that **** and that's why they get on Wladimir. As the dominant HW champ of the world, you gotta give something more to the fans than just a basic jab, and trying for a decision against clearly overmatched opponents.

    If he had his arms shortened about 4 inches each, then he could not control the fight with his jab - and then we would see him fight differently. Then he would have to use more of a Tyson or Marciano approach.

    Right now he doesn't have to because he is too good - but if we cut something off his arms....

    boxing not fighting. point is to inflict the most damage while taking the least.

    he does that quite well. ross purrity, and corrie sanders werent mike tyson either but both got him out of there.he has chosen what works for him and that is to box and use his natural gifts as an advantage. he takes the KO when its there. but he doesnt get out of his comfort zone or give up his natural attributes to do so. he lets his boxing skills open up the opportunity for the KO.

    He should just keep doing what he's been doing. It works.
