    The right question should be "Why you are not a KlitschKO fan?', because it is so hard not to like them.

    I`m not really a big fan of either. But i like their attitude and skills in the ring, have no reason not to like them. And unlike Haye most of their fans are probably adults:)

    I respect their hard work and dedication. They are respectful Champions. They dominate when they fight. Just a couple reasons why I personally like them..

    I'm a fan of these guys simply because they are so different to what I grew up watching in the heavyweight division. They don't talk smack; they fight fair; they are educated; speak multiple languages; and don't need a particular promoter to get big fights.

    What kind of nonsense is that? They win their fights with ease, when most of their opponents go into survival mode after a few rounds.

    they make the brutal sport of boxing look easy.

    they are still fresh and prime at an age when guys like Holmes and Ali were totally shot.

    they are so superior their best challengers duck them or say they are not ready.

    they have both overcome huge adversity and criticism to be the best and dominate the sport.

    They fill up soccer stadiums.

    they have always rrepresented the sport with class and dignity, represented the world HWT title with honor. Both are true champions.

    I don't have time to write more accolades but there are many more...

    I enjoy seeing large white men beat up smaller minorites. Is this the answer you want?



    As far as the glory days of Lewis....everybody said the same thing than that they did about Wlad. Sorry if it just seems like the same ****, different day. Yawn. Holmes, pre-Bowe Holyfield, Ezzard Charles...all the great technicans..boring, boring, hated in their own time. I'm sure you'll counter with but Lewis did this...only in retrospect, only in retrospect.


    Lewis-Tua takes tedium to new heights

    I became a fan of Wlad around the time of the Monte, Jefferson, Mercer fights.... he was a big guy who hurt his opponents, he wasnt just outboxing them, he was beating the **** out of them.

    and outside of the ring he came off as a class individual who also was actively trying to make the world a better place.... fight by fight i became a fan and then when he lost to corrie sanders and everybody who wasnt a wlad fan was shitting all over him, i just started to like him more, and i believed he could come back.... so after a few more ups and downs, and a few more years... hes developed into a technicially sound, effecient, fighter, however many think hes boring because of this.... whatever, im not just going to NOT be a fan of Wlad anymore because of it. Im glad to see him on top of the division and its sad that none of his best challengers have the nuts to face him while hes on this side of 35 :-(

    I watch boxing for entertainment.

    The Klitschkos are not entertaining.

    Nothing more needs to be said.

    Because as a boxer I admire their ability. Athleticism, skills, dedication, sportsmanship, there is simply a lot to like.

    I just read that. So pathetic. I can´t even describe that bull****
    "CLOSE THE GAP! That's what the 225-pound Tua from 1996 to '98 would have done. That was the bomb-throwin' Samoan who tallied late-round KOs over David Izon, Oleg Maskaev and Hasim Rahman. That warrior with the shaved-skull would have crawled inside of Lewis' circus-tent sized trunks and bashed the Brit's protective cup in the final round."
    What has your hair to do with your performance? Have´nt read that kind of bull**** in a while...


    "They called him "TuaMan," the savior of the heavyweight division. If this were pro wrestling (and boxing promoters are trying to make the fight game more and more like the WWF), Tua would be a fan favorite. As the New Zealander would say in first-person: "TuaMan gives the people what they want."
    Oh, boxing scene already needed a savior back then. Interesting...


    "Lewis, though the best heavyweight in the world, would have to play the villain role. A stuffy, crumpet-munching English snob the U.S. fans love to hate. He'd wear a monocle and say something like: "TuaMan, you savage, Lennox Lewis will give you a right thrashing!"


    Seriously, wtf?


    "Lewis thinks too much. He should give up the belts and stick to playing chess, or maybe cricket, if he needs the exercise. At least Tua took some chances. I think he landed about seven or eight left hooks before I fell asleep.."


    ******ed, nuff said

    Few things are more entertaining in sports than to see two brothers totally and completely dominating and beating up every opponent who dares challenge them. They do it with ease and make the brutal sport of fistfighting look like art. TO see two brothers rule the world of boxing the way they do is the best entertainment in all of sports today.

    Seeing the fanboys of their opponents in tears the day after a fight is also highly entertaining.
