    A truly inspirational and profound statement from Vladimir.:campeon: The man has the amazing ability of self-analysis. And judging by the comments of those who have read it, they feel the same way. He continues to amaze and impress.

    "When a Loss is a Victory"

    Well I was wrong, I thought Amir "Delusional" Khan had brought out a new autobiography.

    An inspiring, positive attitude from a great champion. I also got the impression reading through that article that Wladimir isn't mentally preparing for a rematch against Joshua, unfortunately. I hope I am either mistaken or if he doesn't activate the rematch clause, he at least continues for at least another 1 or 2 fights, Wladimir proved against AJ he still has the physicality and the hunger to continue in the sport.

    I agree. Mentally I think he gave it everything in the first fight.

    Wow, Wlad is as boring a writer as he is a boxer. Well at least he's consistent. His obsession with pharmaceuticals should be no surprise to anyone however, given that he has been roided up to his eyeballs his entire career. The admission of erectile dysfunction was poignant. 4/10 stars.

    I like both Vitali and Vlad they are a class act.......................I wish Vlad would go ahead and knock Wilder out before he retires or Vitali to come out of retirement and force Wilder to fight him, Vitali is WBC Emeritis!!!!!!!

    That would be a joke and extremely pathetic if Vitali did force his way to a titleshot 4 years after he retired..However his current version would get knocked out bad by Wilder or anyone else in the top 15 ranks..

    I thought this would be about crooked judges.
