    Sure but look at Wlad in the first and then second fight he looked much better his jab was better his clinch was better his pace was better etc

    No doubt, he improved, just wanted to give Brewster the benefit of the doubt and say that he was nowhere near what he was in the first fight. :)

    It's slightly worth noting Wlad wasn't allowed to hold as much when he fought in USA.

    You even saw it against Jennings as well.

    Stamina issues and big bombs from Brewster. Mainly the former tho. Punched himself out. And commentators were very aware that he may just do it. His pace was crazy in the beginning.

    It made the Jennings fight more interesting but Wlad was starting to look more his age there and he still won it clearly.

    Wlad was the exact same Wlad that fought Pulev and nobody said he was looking his age after that fight.

    What made Wlad look different was styles.

    Jennings used his legs while Pulev stood there like a statue.
    Wlad lucked out being in an era of non moving plodders. And he still lost and had to constantly cheat to win . Overrated.

    Ok you just don't like him so you point out every negative and no positives.

    Wlad only fought prime Brewster once and got demolished.

    Only fanboys would claim that the one-eyed, surgery-worn Brewster—coming off a long layoff—was not only a quality win for Wlad, but also proof that he was the better man.

    Klitschko was so insecure about fighting the faded, diminished husk of Brewster that he offered him a hefty sum to avoid taking a tune-up fight beforehand.

    No I gave Brewster credit for this victory by saying he was very durable.

    Your saying he only won because he implemented the Homer Simpson strategy?
    Do you give him credit for anything else beside taking punishment?

    Yes he was better fighter on the night but I pointed out his durability because it was impressive the way he took the punches to land his own.
