how come ppl who hate wards "spoiling" style arent as critical toward wlad's style??

[Kuyukut]

i wonder why people hate ward...

why hate a fighter that fights once every three years?

He has a point to be fair but I think Wladimir isn't as much of a guy who you'd dislike whereas Ward he has came across as very arrogant/childish in recent times.

Ward is not arrogant at all. He is humble. I met him after Ward vs Dawson. He is a true class act.

It was funny seeing certain fans praise Postols win over Lucas using that boring Klitschko type of style but then cry about boring ass Ward. Lol f*cl outta here!!

It's racism. There is no other explanation.

wlad's nickname is wlad clinchko. they are both cheaters. it is funny how both fanbases are hypocritical and call each other clinching cheats.

I like both guys but Ward works in the clinch. He gets in there with a strike, exits with brilliant striking. It's masterful. Wlad kills me because he clinches to pause, or to get in one jab then clinch to prevent getting hit in return. Really unnecessary most of the time. I'm not a fan of frequent clinching but the educated eye can clearly see that Ward is often working through clinches and not just stifling the action. 2 great fighters, 2 very different clinches.

Freedom mostly.

Klitchko gets tons of criticism for his boring style. If you think he doesn't, you just haven't paid attention to his fights and the coverage he gets. Which I would recommend, since his fights are boring.

And for the record, yes I think Klit and Ward seem like good dudes who are boring as all hell to watch.

But at least Vwlad doesn't spend all his time challenging Light Heavyweights to fight him...

[vman075]

I see them both get criticized all the time. Have you ever seen a post fight Wlad thread that didn't include people hating on his clinching?

[Rich2123]

HOW COME NO ONE HAS MENTIONED THERE'S A NEW STAR WARS MOVIE COMING OUT?

HOW COME FLOYD MAYWEATHER NEVER MENTIONS HE IS RICH?

HOW COME NO ONE EVER MENIOTNED BARACK OBAMA IS AMERICAS FIRST BLACK PRESIDENT?


All three of these questions seem real if you live in a world where no one criticizes Wvlad for being boring.

Wouldn't you say its a bit unfair that Wladimir gets trashed on for doing it but Andre Ward got called classy, masterful etc and rated P4P 2 for doing the same thing as Wladimir was doing?
I believe even Bernard got props for it the commentary made up their own words for describing it but when they watch a Wladimir fight they say its boring etc, I don't quite get that I mean I do its obvious they're biased and they'll always want to sell their promotional fighter but it doesn't make it right does it.
