Wladimir Has About 1 Year Until He Is the 2nd Longest Reigning HW Champion EVER

Then why isn't M.Grant, Tye Fields, Briggs, R.Austin, D. Jefferson,Dimintrenko, etc...... Champions with as much success. Even Vaulev with his great size had only a brief and limited success..

While Size and reach are great attributes and advantages, they usually come with negatives , like movement, coordination and speed.

 

funny how people ignore this and Tyson's competition wasn't much better than Holmes was.....

Not their fault they did what they could do......

Grant had a promising career

should have ducked the lion

 

This...^

 

Totally agree with you about ducking the Lion..

But Wlad has ruined some fighters with promising careers as well.... Something that was quite possible to have happen to Wlad himself, but he had enough character, commitment, and athleticism to prevail

 

If Mitchell Price and Jennings

all live up to the hype

and Wladimir beat all 3. I will have him top 10. Sure thing.


By living up to the hype I mean at LEAST as good as a Prime Razer Ruddock.


If Joshua live up to the hype and like a 40 year old Wladimir beat him too.

Then serious considerations have to be made in Wladimir being top 5-6. The sad thing is, it don't depend on Wladimir. It depends on how good these 'hype jobs' become. For my money I say Price and Joshua are the real deal. Jennings and Mitchell will probably flop.

 

People have to understand

Wladimir's career could

JUST BE STARTING. In terms of ATG legacy. There is a **** load of 'hype' stars out there atm, if all the hype stars become legit. Wladimir got a great chance of becoming a true ATG.

 

I love what I've seen of Price, from the limited fights I've seen of him on youtube. Reminds me of a young Wlad. I see them fighting sooner(1-2yrs) rather then later. And even if Price loses he could be champ after the Bros retire... If Fury dedicates himself more maybe has some potential but not as convinced as I am with Price. I keep hoping Wilder will eventually step his Comp up, but have begun to loss faith. Mitchell and Jennings will get exposed. Mitchell basically did already.. Funny part is I'm American and don't need an American Heavyweight Champ. But it seems like almost the majority of the nationalities of the posters here need a "homer" to route for. And even if it seems like most Klit haters are Brits or Americans, doesn't mean I will rout against a fighter of their nationality just in spite. This isn't the Olympics, it's individual vs. individual

 

Wlad is a great fighter, I really admire how he has progressed
under manny steward. The jab, reach, power, movement,
punch repertoire, Theres no active heavyweight that can
beat Wlad, although Ill be rooting for Arreola! Ive been
most impressed with Wlads power though. But he hasnt faced
any killers in the ring, not his fault. You can overrate or underrate
previous eras, i mean post Lewis the landscape has been dead.
But Wlad fought what was put in front of him. Great fighter,
But a superheavy with speed and power ie Sanders, will
Always beat or give Wlad serious trouble. Where are you
great american hope haha. Arreolas got heart, and im a fan,
but unless wlad gets old overnight, I cant see Arreola winning.
I think Wlad will stop him. I thought Hayes performance against
Wlad sucked, or Wlad made him suck, only saw the fight once.

 

Most Klit Haters are American.

The Brittard slang is just something ******ed KlitFans came up with


British Fans are famous for admitting other nation's superiority in sports.

Look at the most popular sport football. British Press fans Media Tv Players everyone give Club Teams like Bayern Munich Real Madrid Barcelona their just dues.

And admit the superiority atm of Spain Germany Netherlands Brazil Argentina at the world national level

Rarely do Brits hate on someone because they themselves are inferior in that sport.


Now Americans are a different story

Look at the only nation that plays NFL and not the real Football, refusing to join the rest of the world because they are utter **** at it.

Hence making 'soccer' a fringe sport in the States when it is a NATIONAL sport almost everywhere else.

The moment Americans stop dominating the HW Division, it becomes boring and boxing dies a fast Death in America.


Lennox Lewis was also heavily **** on during his reign..

Michael GRANT had so much hype leading into the Lewis fight with
the slogan being

'THE HW TITLE IS COMING BACK WHERE IT BELONGS'

 

Hey Klitschko nuthuggers, champions used to defend their title every month. Not 1-2 times per year. And with Wlad's level of competition this isn't as impressive as you wish it was.

You tear down David Haye to no end but he undoubtedly Wlad's best win.

 

:happy

 

Plenty of bitter, butthurt Brittards in this thread

 

Louis fought some terrible opponents, and most of them would barely even be cruiserweights nowadays.

Let's not go into some of the crap Holmes fought...

 

Consistency and length of reign carries weight.
