I read some of these posts the Wlad fans make and its like they think Wlad can do no wrong. And anything bad that happens to him is not Wlad's fault it always someone's elses fault. I respect the way you stand up for your fighter, but there is no need to be blind on some issues, like the issue of Wlads shot confidence and glass chin. This is not another Wlad hater thread its a thread to determine why Wlad fans are so rabid and obsessed of their fighter.
Yes,i know from fighting myself both on the street and in the ring that the
psychological part is extremly important.
Iv scared a lot of guys who realy are a lot scarier than me.
If Wlad fights Byrd five times, Wlad defeats Byrd all five times. Wlad has no fear of getting hit by Byrd. Wlad's fear comes from big punchers or big guy's. That's why I think he'll destroy Brewster if they face one another again and he'll also defeat Ruiz who is not considered a big puncher. Now if he faces Whitaker, Golota, Harrison, Tyson, Williams the outcome may be different because he fears getting hit by these guy's. It is a psychological demon that he needs to defeat.
Because his big, white, beautiful, well educated and comes from a poor country.
If he makes it and becomes champ and retires as a champ his life story would be the perfect bed time story, with good morale, go to school, train hard, be kind and youl make it.
His the man id like to have a pint and a chat with and the man girls want too be with.
His young he can still make it, i hope.
His future is a big question.
But! This especially too chrisistheanswer. How bad is Chris if a pathetic boxer like you mean Wlad is, whiped the floor with him?
Who has a better record and more talent than wlad at his age?
I laughed my ass off when I read that article, though I just searched several news sites and can't find it again.
They said that he had on improper socks, which caused his feet to hurt, so he wasn't as mobile as he could have been.
They swallowed the story that it was his socks that kept him from putting away Marquez after having him down 3 times in the first round. He probably just found that excuse in the Wlad locker room waste basket after the Sanders fight, though
Wouldn't doubt it.
Hell, the being attacked by klingons excuse is more believable. :p
I know and I never said that Pac was doing as badly as Wlad.
I said that as soon as it happens, they will defend him the same way Wlad is being defended.

Notice when I mentioned Wlad's losses, I did not mention Purrity......for that very reason. I don't count Pac's early losses against him the same way I don't count Wlad's loss against Purrity against him.
To be consistent, since you don't hold the Purrity loss againt Wlad, how can you hold Paquaio's early losses against him?
Well you aren't the only person who thinks that Wlad sucks. Most people mention the Purrity fight. And many people mentioned about how the Brewster fight was just an exact repeat of it which is hardly the case.
I am not holding those loses against Pacman. I was merely pointing out that he has lost to lesser opposition just like Wlad has. I would say that Brewster is a lesser fighter, but Sanders is an A level fighter for the first 2 or 3 rounds of every fight. If he ever actually trained and fought every round more or less like he was able to fight the early rounds of fights, Sanders would be a top 5 heavyweight.
The same can be said for the Purrity loss. Yet that didn't stop people from bashing him because of it.

Not many mention Purrity, there is alot more concern for Wlad over his last two losses, there is a legit arguement to say he was young, inexperianced and didn't know how to pace himself - lack of maturity or whatever.
Before the Sanders loss, Purrity was mentioned during every single fight of Wlads that I have seen.

Hmmmmmmmmm nice.
I would actually have to reach for a counter arguement......but hell I have the patience, so why not?
These losses were very EARLY in Pac's career. Physically and experience wise Manny was not a mature fighter. Many things have changed SINCE THEM. For example, he was not training with Freddie Roach during these losses.
Wlad's losses, happened LATE in his career. And as Late as They were....him fighting Corrie Sanders was considered a STEP UP from what he had fought. Wlad was considered a fully mature fighter. They did not occur relatively early in his career.

But I thought Pacman was never beaten by lesser opponents like Wlad was?

I think both,V&WK can blame their opponents because they have punch them good enough to win.Blaiming too much vaselin they can say only when they go in bed together.
Even so.....Flyweights never really were. Occasionally the division will have one or two standouts.....but that is it.

Actually I checked them out at Boxrec and they didn't look like much.

Neuraxis.
That was at Flyweight.......quick! Name the top flyweights of the world in the Mid 90s. See what I mean? They could have been but you wouldn't really know. Plus in the match against Singsurat, Pacquaio collapsed because of weight making difficulties.

Exactly. He hasn't lost badly even when he is facing the best fighters in his weight class.
Wlad got KTFO'd by guys who weren't even top 10. See the difference?
Maybe you should tell that to Medgoen Singsurat and Rustico Torrecampo.
I know and I never said that Pac was doing as badly as Wlad.
I said that as soon as it happens, they will defend him the same way Wlad is being defended.
And they have a right to.....considering that Pac has already proven himself against some of the best fighters in the world. Unlike Wlad has.
