    Tonight proved you are a false fan, because you did not see wlad was getting old , you did not see him being old in povetkin, pulev and mostly in jennings fights.

    You call it getting old, I call it Wlad not being skilled enough to deal with an opponent his size with a jab.

    He clinched in all of those fights and they were smaller men. His clinches didn't work tonight which is why he lost. It's as simple as that.

    He absolutely DEPENDS on those octopus grabs. Jab, jab, clinch, jab, straight, clinch, jab. Wlad has done this all of his career, you cannot deny.

    He simply got outclassed by a better man.

    Happens to everyone eventually. Ageing sucks. I wish I was 20 again.

    Look at all the greats at 40 they were **** by then. I am amazed that wlad can actually compete at such a level at 40. Just imagine how **** Fury will be at 40 😂.

    No man under 40 years old knows what age does to you. You lose your speed and reflexes. No "vitamins" can prevent that. Last thing that goes is strength (with correct diet and vitamins) but it doesn't carry you far against an opponent you are not able to hit and who hits before you are set up to punch him. Wladimir got old and it happens to everyone of us. Life is life. Waldimir Klitschko was one of the most dominant heavy weigths ever and this loss does not change that in any way. He just got old like any other top Heavy weight champion in history did (Ali, Louis, Holyfield etc.)
