    That is such a vague, and unintelligent post.

    I am one that believes although he may of not beaten all of the old-school greats, he would certainly give ALL of them a good run for their money.

    His Size, Jab, Right hand, and general skill set make him tough for any opponent. Especially considering the size of him compared to the average HW or the past.

    And I cant stand when people say "if he wasn't so big he wouldn't be as good" That's like saying if Usain Bolt wasn't as fast he wouldn't be the fastest runner in the world.

    Stop dwelling on something (which is merely an opinion) that you will never be able to prove.

    i cant honestly remember any good body puncher in the heaveyweight division in quite some time. It is just not too beneficial, you leave yourself open and it does not take much to get clipped in that weight class.

  5. Felix have literally destroyed the minds of an entire generation of klittards.

    they are so paranoid now they think anyone who dislike klitschkos are automatically Lewis fans.
    :nut:nut:nut:rofl:rofl

    DINOVELVETFAG HATES LEWIS and hates all British fighters. You stupid ****.

    Just because he tells the truth about Wladimir and Vitali don't make him a 'British fan' :rofl:rofl

    With his height it'd leave him very open punching to the body with most of his opponents being a lot shorter than him, and he doesn't need to take the chance, he's winning fights easily with the jab and headshots.

    Wlad's a top 5 all-time great heavyweight boxer. He is about to surpass Larry Holmes as the second longest reigning heavyweight champion of all-time. He will be second only to the greatest Joe Louis who caught a break with the WW2 effort closing down real boxing competition for years. Wlad is beating up and dominating fighters like few men in boxing history. Other heavyweights actively avoid him, they know he is so good; really unprecedented in history. Also the fight historians of the future who rank fighters greatness will not all be Americans now that boxing is such a global sport. Wlad being the youngest heavy to win an Olympic gold medal at age 20 can only add to his storied legacy.

    1. Leaves him open, when he's the taller man especially.
    2. Why bother? He doesn't need to. He almost always closes to the show. Constant jab in the face will sap stamina nearly as well as frequent body shots.

    He threw a few hooks to the body against Pianeta.

    His style doesn't call for it much and he's tall.

    I don't agree with Dinovelvet on Wlad at all and I don't agree with his views on Lewis for big parts but when it doesn't concern Wlad I do think his view is interesting enough from time to time.

    Meow is in my opinion right now together with Felix worthy of an ignore.
    Meow is always the same bull****, and Felix too.

    Reading one of their posts is reading all their posts.

    Brittard, he was knocked down three ****ing times and still won the fight against peter, because he outboxed him for the bigger part of that fight, sanders simply knocked him out , he also outboxed purity, brewster, but got knocked out , because of his chin/ stamina or whatever it is .

    And two of those knockdowns came from blatant rabbit punches. This guy obviously hasn't even seen the fight. Someone who constantly declares Wlad a boring fighter who hasn't seen Wlad-Peter I has no ****ing clue. It was one of the most exciting heavyweight fights of the decade and it was hard for anyone not to respect Wlad's heart after seeing it.
