Time for some facts about klitschko

Nonsense Cyril... just nonsense. I can't believe people are still pretending that Wlad has a weak chin... let alone pretending like he has stamina issues. He was just in a very active, high pressure fight... and was bouncing on his feet, attacking, and scored a knockout in the 11th round. He was still bouncing around during his interview after the fight. Stamina is not an issue, and neither is his chin. He does get a bit suprised when hit, only because he normally doesn't get hit. However, he takes the shots well.

 

I don't remember him taking those shots from Brewster, Peter, Purrity lol or Sanders particuarly well

He has a bad chin, and he fights in a manner which suggests he knows it.

 

vlad is an awful champion in a **** division, in a poor poor era of heavyweights. Watching vlad last night got me thinking, lewis, tyson, peak holyfield, ruddock, peak bowe, would have walked through him and smashed him to pieces. Those guys were around not that long ago.

Its since the eastern europe domination of the heavyweights that its become a robotic pathetic bore. even some of the 80's alphabet champions would walk through vlad. I dont understand whats going on with the heavyweights.

I think a lot of the big black athletic kids in america now, instead of boxing are probably going into NFL and Basketball, where they are going to make much more money without getting their brains bashed in.

 

He took all of Peters flush shots very well. Only one real knockdown, and it was kicked off by a haymaker to the back of the head. Nothing to do with his chin. He was stopped on his feet against Ross, due to exhaustion, and was eating shot after shot. Ross's punches aren't what did Wlad in, it was the fact that he had nothing left in his tank to throw. Brewster didn't even score an actual knockdown on Wlad. Once again, Wlad was completely exhausted, and Brewster hit him with two left hooks that normally melt his opponents on the spot... and Wlad stayed on his feet. Brewster hit him with several more shots and Wlad never hit the canvas until after the bell, when he got tripped up with the ref. So, a completely exhausted Wlad ate Brewsters best shots, that normally destroy his opponents... I would say that is pretty good.

Sanders is the only guy who went in there and blew Wlad out with punches. Wlad was just completely unprepared for that fight, and it showed. He had no idea what to do when he got buzzed, and tried to punch his way out of trouble at first. Then Wlad was all over the place, and had no idea how to survive. Understandable considering that he had never really been in that position before. He went his entire long amatuer career, and pro career with his only stoppage being his exhaustion stoppage against Purrity. Sanders actually hit Wlad with several fast, hard flush shots that Wlad never saw coming. Great performance by Sanders, and Wlad learned from his loss. Just because Wlad was stopped by Sanders punches, doesn't mean that Wlad has a weak chin. Sanders can stop anyone if he landed those shots on them.

The bottom line is that you haters are living off of things that happened years ago. Wlad has CLEARLY evolved and matured as a fighter. Before he was with Steward, he used to only spar for 4 rounds at a high pace. You could tell in his fights, as he would fight like that. Wlad never had anyone who could mold his talent until he started training under Steward. We can't keep pretending like Wlad is the same fighter who didn't know what to do when his opponent attacked, and blew his load in the first half of his fights. Wlad fights at a much more measured pace. Is more comfortable and relaxed. Can take what is coming at him, knows when to tie up, doesn't waste his shots, and controls the ring.

 

Derrick is a ****ing ******* teenager who can't believe Wlad hasn't been KO'd and needs something to post.

After he was embarassed once, he re-registered as "Spider Man" and everyone called him out on it.

Once again, Derrick the Egg, **** you, you *******.

YOU GOT OWNED AGAIN YESTERDAY.

 

Derrick = Cyril

 

Ok maybe I'm just a nuthugger but I don't get the chin issues for this fight. Wlad took a lot of shots from an average puncher, I didn't see him flustered or dazed once. I actually thought where he held his hands and his eagerness to get in there showed a LOT of improvement in punch resistance. He went into this fight expecting to get hit, which was good to see. He didn't look scared to me AT ALL.

 

It's really kinda ridiculous at this point.

The vast majority of his last fights have gone 8+ rounds and he has had a very high activity in all of them.

 

Changing someone's quote is just stupid. It just proves how much of an ******* you are.

 

Don't overlook the obvious, Waldo fanatics. The holding IS instrumental in his surviving his recent contests.

That ugly **** that he does where he lunges in to grab opponents is disturbing and ILLEGAL. Thompson was just as worn out from Waldo's tackling as he was from the punches. That is a fact plain as day. This isn't WWE, this is Boxing. Boxing. Boxing.

He still reacts like a deer in the headlights when hit with a flush shot, even if it isn't the hardest punch in the world. The guy goes on spagetti legs whenever a big punch lands infact. You know as well as the rest of us that it is only a matter of when, not if, that chin gets cracked again. He is on borrowed time. Get ready for when Povetkin owns his ass.

 

Clinching in boxing is not illegal regardless of what you say. Excessive holding can lead to warnings or points being taken off, at the discretion of the referee.

If you think clinching is illegal obviously you haven't seen one Hatton or Ruiz fight, and they have never been DQ'd for clinching.

Wlad didn't hold last night after warned once.

 

Hmmm... did you ever watch any Ali fights?

 

What John Ruiz does is also illegal and he only got away with it because everyone felt sorry for his ordinary ass. Everyone knows what happens to Ruiz when he stops holding. He gets Tuafied.

Hatton is also an instigator of this. He has gotten plenty of unfair advantages at home and ended up getting his ass beat at his own game. Good guy but his boxing style is atrocious and definately won't win many fans on this side of the pond.

As far as when Waldo stopped holding I don't recall him stopping once warned. All I know is he did a shitload of it early in the fight, per usual. That's really all I need to see. ****s sakes Thompson isn't even an aggressive southpaw. Why the holding? Waldo fights like a vagina, as our resident Club Fighter pointed out.

 

Seriously, boxers don't get DQ'd for clinching. You need to accept the fact that Wlad has had weaknesess and overcome them with clinching, but it it isn't severe by any means compared to Ruiz or Hatton. As stated above, Ali clinched all the time. That was his strategy.
