Floyd-Baldomir was a boxing display, He just wasnt gonna get ko so Mayweather won 12-0. was a little boring but comparing that to Wald-Iggy?? That fight was wanna of the worst I've ever seen, I could only take like 6 rounds of watching it and that was it.
Wlad fights scared and there is a difference between what Floyd does (Box) and what Wlad does (try not to fight)...If the guy that Wlad is fighting even acts like he is about to throw a punch Wlad simply runs across the ring...He is already out of range and should use that as a chance to counter but he would rather ran....Im one that is always talking about a fighter doing what give him the best shot of winning, but damn its hard to watch Wlad fight. I wish they did punch stats in that fight. I bet Wlad only landed 10% of his shots until the last two rounds...And Why arent the refs stopping him from using that arm bar jab..Were he jabs and then leaves his hand out there for another 10 to 20 second, that is illegal...
can we stop with the mayweather/Hopkins vs. Wladimir comparisons? atsch Wlad is no practitioner of the sweet science. i'd rather watch two skilled slick fighters over a guy who throws jabs and 1-2s all day. wanna see a HW technician? go watch Larry Holmes.
Wlad and its not even close. He should ask his brother if he can borrow his sack for one of his fights.
Wlad is a disgrace to boxing. Plain and simple. That guy just fights to win. Even more so than anyone else in recent memory. He is the definition of not taking chances. But he's so superior over anyone else right now that even that style gets his KOs. It's pathetic.
This content is protected :? I think I know what your saying but dont all fighters fight to win???? Wlad is getting knockouts because the guys that he is fighting sucks, and none of them really have the balls to go after him. I think that if a fighter just flat out rushes Wlad he will fall apart...Look there is a reason that he hasnt fought guys like Briggs and Haye...He was going to fight Haye, Haye gets hurt and now he isnt going to fight, but try and get big brother to do it for him. Both of those guys would risk being knockedout going after Wlad, and that is what Wlad cant stand PRESSURE, he will fall apart.
wlad.....sure both can be boring, but if you enjoy watching actually skills.....floyd is so much more fluid to watch then wlad....wlad is something you would show at a nursing home...
Wlad is also a foot taller, 100lbs heavier and therefore no where near as agile. You guys are ****ing putzes. Lennox puts people away with the same **** as Wlad, he's an ATG. Ali used his jab when he could and when he couldn't, he relied on outfoxing his opponents - Wlad hasn't failed to find a mark for his jab. Expecting a 250lb, 6'7 athlete to move like a 140lb 5'7 athlete is plain stupid.
That kind of belief is growing more (completely) inaccurate with each passing decade. There are huge athletes in the NFL/NBA that are 6'5" to 6'8" that combine speed, agility, power, and quickness very comparably to small athletes. There are hundreds of pro athletes superior in movement to the Klits. The Bros. are NOT the evolutionary apex of athleticism. Far, far from it. INCREDIBLY FAR FROM IT.
