Klitschkos dominance is due to Conditioning

This is ridiculous. Both brothers, especially Wlad, win fights due to their skills. Of course they're well conditioned, but they wouldn't win fights in such emphantic fashion if their only (or main) advantage was just superior conditioning. They're simply much better tactically and skill-wise than the majority of their opponents. In some cases power, size or toughness might come into play, but if you're going to single out just one thing that puts them on top it's this: they're better than the rest.

Vitali were basically fat free yesterday.
he will probably fight Haye and Valuev then retire.
no way haye fights him lol. maybe he signs a contract but there's no way he goes through with it. he barely made it out of his dressing room against wladimir
i think he's done boxing
at least done boxing klitschkos
and valuev vs klitschko would be one half sideshow (valuev's half) and one half clinical asswhooping (vitali's half)Last edited by New England; 09-10-2011, 08:52 AM.

Years ago, I read a book that featured interviews with many former world champions. I remember being impressed with how often the champs cited conditioning as vital to success. There's little doubt in my mind that the Klitschkos would not have reached their level of achievement if they didn't have the same work-ethic and conditioning. They're the foundation.

Though they are rarely prescribed in the states, because we have much better medications now, they are often used in poorer countries like Ukraine as a best alternative for joint and muscle tissue recovery) and when he was questioned and tested for steroids, he admitted to using the stuff doctor prescribed him. Doping comission does not differ wether you used steroids to run faster, or to heal your leg so thats how Vitaly's road to olympic ended.
