Is Wlad Klitschko last of a dying breed?

He had a good long active career. 70 fights for a HW in this day and age is exceptional.

 

I think Canelo fits a similar standard, as does Manny Pacquiao. BTW Canelo became a professional boxer at the age of 15 which is also rare, and with all due respect; loved him or not.
Although I don't know if the topic applies only to the heavy category.

 

Derek Chisora has a similar level of activity to Wladimir but he didn't turn pro til he was 23.

 

Mike Tyson's resume is %95 bums. And he lost to Lewis. Lost to Holyfield.

 

Is it though?

 

Era was weak but give Wlad ctedit fir Longetivity on a Louis/Holmes type level.

 

The only respectable thing about him is the number of his fights, as the heavyweights now trend to fight twice less. Then this man has nothing exceptional: glass jaw, a bit of a coward because of that for which reason he started to abuse the clinch and got the referees support for that. Adding his dirty gloves, rings and so on games, I even suspect him of being on PEDs. So I hope Wlad is of a dying breed as he made the heavyweight boxing boring, his reigning was rather damaging than impressive.

 

’Good resume’ hahaha

 

Getting ktfo by Brewster and the golfer was not great for his resume. Noone great in that list either.

 

I've gone right off the big homosexual octopus & his pro western media propaganda

 

He reigned over utter dross. One of the most overrated boxers going.

 

Yes. For ten years there was nobody decent to fight in the HW division.

Before he was there it was strong, and now that he's gone it's strong again. Almost magical.

Or ... he made everybody look like bums for 10 years.

 

We have fighters today that are supposedly burnt out after 25-30 fights.

 

Yes whilst he was champion he didn’t have to face such tough challenges such as Chisora, Whyte and Wilder, as well as Szpillka, Molina, Washington, Breazeale, Takam.

 

There was; his brother, who'd have beaten him up.

Wladimir got sparked by three mediocre opponents, and then schooled by Fury and beaten by Joshua (although he probably came out of that looking better than Joshua, all things considered). His marquee win is... David Haye. His "win" against Povetkin goes down as the most disgraceful I can remember seeing.

Wladimir Klitschko is quantity over quality, and even then he got sparked out by three mediocre opponents.
