Should Wladamirs Holding tactics be allowed?

Wlad does everything nicely but yeah, he's a MAJOR ***** for holding the way he does. It points to having no chin and a lack of an inside game. Can't blame him. Its PTSD when it comes to Wlad.

 

Skittlez returns.

 

john ruiz was just a spoiler..

valuev sucked because he wasnt good enough to even use his height as proper advantage as the greats have..

 

i dont have a problem with it because EVERYONE DOES IT.but lo and behold looks whos name is in the title of this thread lol..witch hunt or what guys..

alot of wlads clinches are because of silly wankers who cant fight on the way inside and end up in a clinch (more of a coming together) which wlad takes advantage of...hed be a ****ing moron not to...

i didnt have you for a butt hurt fan..use to respect the **** out of you..dont anymore

 

Wladmir is like that beautiful college girl with a great personality, but who's been sexually assaulted 3x times..
so now whenever a guy gets her out of her comfort zone, she panics and calls the cops.

 

:rofl:rofl

 

atsch

 

Chambers wasn't having any of Wlad's holding BS

 

People getting rather defensive and butt hurt over this.

No, it shouldn't be allowed.

 

:good

It is professional boxing not amateur boxing.

 

Lmao, I'm not remotely butthurt, whenever I discuss boxers I do so objectively

You however, are saying an Emmanuel Steward trained boxer, who by his nature is clearly quite worried about being hit, clinches 'because of silly wankers who can't fight their way on the inside', not because of himself that's pathetic

Wlad actively reaches for fighters to hold them, he doesn't just 'come together' with them as a product of them trying to get inside. Why do you think this thread isn't made about Vitali? It's nothing to do with a dislike of k2. Wlad holds far too much. It's the truth.

Do you not remember Eddie Chambers lifting Wlad off the ground because he was pissed off with Wlads grabbing tactics, this wasn't because of accidental coming togethers, it's because Wlad actively seeks to completely tie up and lean on his opponent whenever they are past his jab

Stop being such a fanboy

Other fighters hold (I don't beleive there is currently anyone in boxing who does it as much as Wlad) yes. Wlad is the HW champion, of course he will get more coverage

Also as far as Jack Johnson goes I have no ****ing idea why he is being brought up, take a look how many threads are made on him each day in the general, then have a think why there aren't threads about his holding

Also take a look at the year, we are in 2012, not 1902

Ali also used similar tricks,, though not as much, he was (correctly) warned about it in the Thrilla in Manilla and it became a MUCH different fight

That's what should happen to Wlad too, he should be warned

 

ok..but which part of my statement was untrue??

 

Oh, the irony. :rofl

 

Wlad's holding is excessive and therefore illegal. He held Mormeck 16 times in the first round of their fight. That should warrant a point deduction.

Referees should be punished for not doing their jobs properly and illegally favouring Wlad. They'd be punished if they didn't caution low blows or rabbit punches, so should be punished if they ignore holding.

 

Seriously. Wlads holding is because of OTHER people,

That's one of the worst things I've ever heard
