Wow...the only reason he did that to Ray Austin is that it was RAY AUSTIN. Who the $*#()(#*)@#*$(#*$* is Ray Austin? For every Ray Austin that Klitschko has fought, Lewis fought an ACTUAL CONTENDER.
Won't blame Wladimir there, Austin was his mandatory and the HW division today is just poor, guys like that are mandatories and contenders. But yeah, Austin was just terrible, Wladimir didn't even throw a single right hand and he KO'd him cold.
Understandable, and I DON'T blame Wlad...I blame his nuthuggers for not being smart enough to realize that Lennox Lewis was so much better than any of these guys that Wladimir has fought. Wlad hasn't shown me anything in any of his fights that would make me even CONSIDER picking him to beat Lewis. Lewis had a better jab, practically equal size and strength, better speed, more heart...the list goes on. It's frustrating...Wlad deserves credit and respect for what he's accomplished, but he's not nearly as good as some heavyweights of the past.
I picked this beauty up on 'Ya Ni's post in the Lewis-vs-Klitschko thread today.... 'The Wlad that fought Sanders would have beaten Lewis by KO rd7 - as he would not be looking past him, as he was Sanders'' That post is wrong, irrational, delusional and ignorant on so many levels, I love how in the same sentence a Klitite excuses his loss to a golfer and picks him to beat one of the very GOAT HW champions. And klitite fans wonder why their fighters get hated on.
i think it was the same ******* who called Haye classless for the t shirt but then said he wishes wlad sends haye to his grave with a right hand:-(
I suspect we'll have a lot of these threads as the fight gets closer. It's great to see other people are looking out for the gems too, it's not fair to leave me with this enormous workload you know. All you WALDO haters out there, feel free to start these threads :good
There's been a few Klit-ites saying naughty stuff like that, just start doing it back and watch them take the moral high ground. Amuses the **** out of me, anyway :hey
I think Wlad could have the stuff to beat Lewis. I think if they fought 3 times they'd split them 2-1. Who'd get the 2 wins is what I'd want to know. Lewis was far from perfect, and we all know Wlad's flaws. It'd be a great fight.
