    Its not balming its blaming

    Okay, Yes fast and KO fighters are really entertaining. But, would you really want to pay a lot of money for the fight that ends in 1 or 2 rounds? Or you want to enjoy the value of the money and watch it for 30 minutes instead of 6, or even 3 :think. In some points Klitschko is not THAT boring as some people say, at least it last longer that others and that what makes it enjoyable to watch.

    It's always great to watch the knockouts on youtube, but is it really that great for the fight that you waited so much to end in 10 minutes? ( like i was Waiting for Vitalij vs Solis )

    Thoughts..

    Nobody earned more than Tyson. He fought some bums and killed them, he fought good opponents and either killed them or went down trying his hardest. He always went to war, this is what mattered.

    I always laugh at those type of fans, my guess is they are more suited to be tough man contest fans. Boxing is about much more than a slug fest, it is about skill and the ability to win even if plan A, B or C does not work.

    If Wladimir fought one of them tough guy bums, he would jab him for 10 rounds, Manny would flip and knock that bum out himself.

    If knocking out "bums" the way Tyson did was easy everyone would have done it and got the media attention.

    I personally enjoy all as a fan but the slick smart fighters the most. Those that are clueless about what's going on in there and how special it takes for a fighter to move, show insane speed, defense and counter can't be blamed for hating it. It's pretty much like watching a foreign movie without subtitles for those.

    I agree that you do want to see a bout that lasts longer than a few seconds. Also, you like to see some skill displayed in the ring. I admit Wlad is good at what he does. However, that is fairly limited. He doesn't throw a great variety of punches, or display a really slick defensive, or exciting style. He is a bit boring for me, whilst a guy like PBF can put on a boxing clinic.

    Long fights are fine, as long as it's competitive. Watching a far superior fighter look for a highlight reel KO is just a ****-take.

    Yes I do/will. The fact that I made it to a prime Tyson fight even if it lasted 3 seconds is more than enough as a serious boxing fan.

    Can't blame the brothers for the poor level of competition they face.

    Was Vitali-Lewis boring?

    lol at the typo in the thread title - made me think of 'embalming' like they do to mummies, which would be quite apt, given that Kltschko is so ****ing robotic he is mummielike :yep
