I'm not sure how it could be considered parrying, it was an aggressive striking motion Put it this way, if you did that on any other part of the body you'd be called for hitting with the inside of the glove It's illegal.
I fell asleep on my couch last night and missed it. Just watching the replay on Sky and it is ****ing boring. To be fair to Jim Watt there is absolutely **** all to comentate on or to be positive about.
Don't know why anyone would have even expected this fight to be any different. It was a good performance from Klit despite not really stepping it up and i guess that was expected when u see the obvious advantages he had. I hate saying this but that division is generally crap and is likely to be like that in the future (says my crytsal ball). The cream of the division has evolved that way and i don't think it's likely to change as fighters like Klit will always make their way to the top. I have to admit that i don't like him very much but at the same time can't blame him for the strategies he uses to beat what's placed in front of him. The dislike probably stems from the Klit fanbase that seems to exist these days and i just can't see why!!!! Unless ur from Eastern Europe, then it's great!!!
Vlad showed he has great defense and skills. Watch Ali Vs. Young.....Vlad/Sultan was much more exciting and Vlad won much more impressively.
Big problem is that I can not see a truly great solution to the Heavey weight division coming along any time soon. All the top contenders are worse than Wlad who we have already discussed. Our own David Haye has alot of tools to well and he's a great guy but that chin has got to play a huge part in his career at hw. The other guy shouted about is Povetkin who on his last performance looked like another non starter, good skills ect but nothing special.
Do you guys not think that Johnny Nelson would be a good replacement for Watt? I think he is way more insightful and whilst i agree the fight was shite Watt is like the bloke at work who just moans about everything and eventually you break and just want to strangle the ****er. I personally think Darke and Nelson would make a cracking team, if Darke is still around?
