i love hwb but the best fight i see these days are no title fights. i just want wlad out of the pictures and get some new faces with belts big ugly russian is a disgraced to the sport wlad is a coward and why. unified champ fights rahman , do i need to say more valiti is a sick boxer tho.. what do u people really think about Wlad
Yeah, blah, blah, blah. I'm not a fan of his at all. He's very protected as far as his opponents go. A skilled HW with a good punch rocks him to sleep. And I'm not talking about Sam Peter. Thats the problem right now. Not enough quality HW competition out there to force him to take a dangerous fight.
**** off. Wladimir has fought the very best competition & knocked most of them out. No other HW has fought better, mandatory challengers.
His fights are quite boring because of his style. But he is also dominant because the division is very weak.
Klitschko is so good, so outstandingly superior, he makes the HWT landscape look mediocre. Just the way Lewis, Louis, Ali, Tyson did.
No, Scoop...the HW division did not need KLiT's help to make it look bad, although he helps it suck in his own way...:good
This topic is not presented entirely fair. While it's true Wlad vs Rahman should not be considered a great fight, but you forgot that Rock was a last minute replacement. I'd cut Wlad some slack for that. I'd say more troubling is that Wlad vs Valuev can't be made for unification, and even though it's COMPLETELY understandable to not want to fight your own brother, the fact that we'll never see a unified champ with Vitali still carrying a belt is a bit of a problem. It's also frustrating that Wlad vs Haye is having so much trouble getting made. Whoever's fault it may be. As for other competition... there isn't any. We can't fault Wlad for that.
Wlad fights in one of the worst era's for Heavyweights I ever seen, possibly ever. It's sad when you see a 7'0 325 pound giant, pretty much losing to a severely washed up 46 yearold Evander Holyfield or a prime Sam Peter getting destroyed by a 37 yearold Vitali Klitschko, who hasn't fought in nearly 4 years to comeback and reclaim his title without a problem. We can also throw in the fact that Wlad had a unification fight last year with Iggy, the first in 9 years, and it showcased 2 men terrified to engage with one another. In the end turned into one of the worst title fights in the history of the Heavyweight division. As far as Wlad goes, I really cant blame him too much for all the problems the Heavyweight division is dealing with, other than his very cautious and boring style he's fought for the last 4 or so years, and the fact he wont take the match with Haye, which is clearly the fight, fight fans want to see at this time.
:nut Wlad a disgrace? You may not like the guy, but a discrace?:nono you are nothing but another Wlad hater on ESB:deal ****ING NEWBIE!!!!!!
He's ok and i don't blame him for his choice of opponents. I mean they're all bums out there so who the hell is he supposed to fight?? it's not his fault. But stylewise, Im not a big fan of him. His style has become too textbook and his offense is somewhat boring and repetitive. Im not jumping up and down to see his next fight.
