    I agree with this, but when Wlad fight guys like Mormeck or Chagaev there is not much he can about the situation. It would have been **** fights even if he was to steamroll them in round one. When Wlad fought a good heavy in David Haye there was very little grappling. Wlad b-o-x-e-d. He did not spoil.

    Hopkins Wlad at least has some knockouts !
     
  3. Given the choice right now between a Hopkins fight and a Klitschko fight... I'm going with Klitschko. It is much more likely that I will get to see someone KO'd if I make that decision. I like watching Hopkins when he is in with a good fighter, and it's fun seeing his old ass toy with young G's, but there will be a decision or some kind of no contest for sure.

    Not only that, but right now you have the added possibility that Wlad himself could be knocked out and lose his titles. Just this right here should make a bunch of you guys go back and change your poll answer!

    Im a fan of both well not so much Hopkins lately but both are exciting in their own way

    Wlad prior to Ibragimov was always exciting to watch, he really didnt have a dull sort of fight til Brock but he turned it up in 6 and 7 and got a high light reel finish

    Wlad knocks guys cold and has a high work rate for a heavyweight typically throws more jabs than other guys throw punches

    Hopkins is exciting in his own way too, a master of his craft a tricky vet, the issues i have is he can have a low work rate and really spoil

    but he has had fights where he was aggressive and went after the guy like his Pavlik fight and 2 Pascal fights

    if you measure excitement in just face first brawling than you may not understand my points

    Look at all the fools dismissing the fact that Wlad actually gets the KO 85% + of the time. :rofl :lol:

    Some boxing fans you guys are. I mean these same morons would tell you how great Tyson was because of his KO's while they forget that Wlad has a better KO percentage. :deal

    Wait, I know, it's because Wlad is taller and he weighs a bit more. He also eats his Weaties regularly so that means he should get the KO's faster........................:lol:

    Which guy sells out stadiums?
