Klitschko vs Clay-Bey

Good scrap for an amateur fight. Wlad can handle some heat. If he were a lesser fighter there would be more of it but he's got a way of making the opponent stay away.

 

No, it perfectly in line with the nature of amateur boxing. Amateur boxing is a sport where you are supposed to beat your opponent by being the better boxer, you are supposed to outbox him not necessarily hurt him. Otherwise Amateur boxing wouldn't be allowed as an Olympic sport and that's why you'll never see Pro boxing at the Olympics.

 

I've been saying it for years, Klitschko is overrated. Clay-Bey, the proverbial underachiever, has just proven it yet again. If you want to know how Dave Haye would beat Klitschko, all you have to do is look at the video.

 

Well, it'a a by-product but not the main intention as in pro boxing, so knockdowns/counts won't get rewarded any further than being just another scoring point.

You do realise this bout happened 12.5 years ago? I guess not.

 

Yeah, and Clay-Bey is now an old man. So what?

 

He seemed a good talent but was very lazy.

Shame really.

 

atsch

All this from the guy who wrote poems on here about how Kirk Johnson was going to knock out Vitali Klitschko.

 

So you also realize that Clay-Bey was a 30 year old man, fighting against a kid.... and still lost, right? Clay-Bey was also USA's team Captain that year. So, Klitschko... while still a kid... beat a 30 year old man, who was the Captain of USA's Olympic team... and that proves that Klitschko is overrated in your book? Wow.

 

show us the poems

 

That so called "kid" was put through a sport training system that Clay-Bey could only dream about. Age don't mean ****.

 

Obviously you are a full member of the "Hate Squad".

 

And you have the temerity to comment on my extravagant conclusions?

 

The guy had a 134-6 record in the amateurs. Give him a break.

Can you name any other heavyweight fighters that had a better amateur record?

Just to let you know Wlad has a record of 186-9 including both the amateurs and professional.

 

Records don't tell the whole story. Mike Tyson couldn't even make the Olympic team, yet he went on to become a dominant professional. Not only that he lated knocked out two guys who made the team and won gold!
