Vitali's defense and stamina. Is anyone else impressed.

I don't know what the hell to say to anybody who still wants to dump on the Klitschkos...what the hell kind of standards are they pumping up to accomodate their prejudices against these two fabulous boxers? Both are in control of the heavyweight scene...deal with it you detractors. Wlad should keep right on doing what the hell he's doing...don't change a thing..and Vitali is one hell of a "robot" isn't he...he takes one victim after another..these brothers are at the top because they're THE BEST...what part of this do the detractors not understand? By the way, how many Ali fans are there that dump on the Klitschko's? Ali fought "smart" and didn't engage in meaningless slugfests...he held a lot...you could even say that many of his defenses, the "thrilla" of course being an exception, were DULL as hell, but dull only if you don't appreciate the the subtleties of boxing...maybe some of you guys SHOULD be watching primitive, rolling on the ground, "hit 'em when they're down" bull**** stuff like MMA and UFC, and leave boxing to those that know what the hell they're looking at.

 

I agree with you guys. It was a terrific performance. He averaged ninety punches a rounf. He displayed great defense and ring generalship. He makes thye most of his skills and talents. I am also fairly certain at this stage part of his punching style is to compensate for his past leg and back injuries.

Few like Goliath and of course there will always be those who are never happy let alone satisfied but you cannot please everyone.

 

"Both are in control of the heavyweight scene"

More of a commentary on the sad state of the heavyweights these days.

 

Well, every time the Klitschko's step in the ring, they're putting their dominance on the line, and if no one can rise to the occasion, then so much the better...maybe some talent will develop somewhere, maybe it won't..so what?

 

I LOL at all vitali fans who expected vitali to win by 1-2 round KAYO. they are finally realizing that vitali lacks one punch power. He is an arm puncher with no technique. This fight went the way I thought it would. vitali just leaned back with his tall body and slapped him with arm punches. Chris is just too inexperienced right now. Vitali did show me he is vulnerable, and I expect him to lose the title in his next 2 fights. Vitali is in great shape for 38 but he could be on roids. He tested positive for steroids BANNING him from the olympics in 1996. So he has a history there.


It is very clear wladimir klitschko is far greater fighter than his brother and would kill him if they ever fought in the ring.

 

Vitali Klitschko did not pitch a shutout, he lost rounds 4 and 8 against Arreola. The funny thing is this was probably the best fighter vitali ever beat, which shows you his lack of resume.

The two best fighters Vitali ever faced, HE LOST TOO

 

Last night's fight went almost exactly as I called it, only 1 round more, and minus a knockdown, but unlike a certain columnist, I never predicted a 1 or 2 round blowout for Vitali. His strength is in the sustained, punishing attack he applies, the cumulative effect of a steady beating. He isn't a one punch killer, but is so effective and strong in his attack, that he usually gets the "ko".

 

Vitali lacks a punch, I agree. Wlad would destroy Vitali. Vitali would get badly outclassed.

 

And you thought that Arreola would win. Same old same old.

 

You too have a sustained, steady attack, in your ongoing grudge against the Klitschkos. Get over it...they're the dominant forces in the heavyweight division, and they will be until somebody can man up and assert THEIR superiority. I'm sure also that somebody back in the 40's had a sustained, carefully nursed hatred for Joe Louis too, throughout his 12 year reign.
