sorry in advance if someone already posted this, i pulled it out of an interview.
Anything you would like to add about Wladimir and Vitali?
Wladimir Klitschko is the best heavyweight in boxing today. He’s in a class by himself. And he is gradually becoming the most perfect heavyweight boxer, maybe of all time. Not just because Wladimir is big but Wladimir is right now faster than all of the other heavyweights and most heavyweight throughout history.
To have speed and to have power is something that no other heavyweight. A lot of them, like Ali, had speed, but very few had speed ad power. So Wladimir is becoming the perfect fighter, with great hand speed and hand power, and becoming very fast with his legs also. He can explode and move so fast with his punches and feet, and then he would move back just as fast. He’s actually a lot faster than some of those small fighters. He should become an all time heavyweight. In the next few years he will take on everyone else, and not just beat them, but beat them very professionally. There should be no contest.
i dont hate im too grown for that. id just like to say hopkins was 41 years old
so was he also to old to beat the best light heavyweight in antonio traver? U aint got shit on me...
Taylor beat Hopkins twice and then drew with Winky Wright that has to saym something bout the guy. You guys are just a bunch of hating ***gets who have nothing better to do then talk shit...

Wlad is a bum, honestly, he fighting in a WEAK era and has already been KTFO 3 times ...
Are you kidding me? :eek: Jim Braddock lost more than 20 (!) times before his spectacular comeback. Loosing 3 times is nothing but a good experience.
he also said taylor could be the best middle weight ever, what hes really doing is fucking with theese fighters head to make them maxamize the fullest potential, becuase if really bealives this shit i think hes nuts

Wlad is a bum, honestly, he fighting in a WEAK era and has already been KTFO 3 times and keeps getting knocked down in every fight. That Byrd fight was the biggest joke ever, Byrd came off a CRAP fight with TOS where it looked like Bernard Hopkins could have even beaten him.
ur the bum. Wlad has gone through tough times but hes back...
ur ugly
manny was one of the greatest trainers of all time, but not at the moment
Manny is the best trainer around, hes very smart and knows what hes talking about unlike your stupid ass...

I agree with you here. Steward said the same thing about Hamed before the Barerra fight... then he got his ass whooped. Recently when they asked Steward about the fight he said he asked Hamed to cancel the fight because he didn't think he was ready (or didn't think he could win). Steward also seemed to pump up Taylor before his tough fight against Winky.
"pump up"? :confused: He said that, having worked with Taylor, he thinks Taylor has a chance to beat Winky. This was hardly a "pumping up," just a very normal encouragement.
yup wlad doesnt have self belief so every chance stewerd gets hes praising him, either that or stewerd is a damn ass , but ill tell you one thing hes a great trainer but he thinks hes smarter then he is

every trainer at the time says that about their top fighter

It seems like Steward thinks every boxer that he train is the best of all time.
I remember when he was training Naz Hamed for the Barrera fight, Steward also said that he thinks NAZ is the GREATEST FEATHERWEIGHT OF ALL TIME.
And look what happened to him.

Do you think Shannon Briggs will beat him? If not, do you think Rahman will beat Wlad? If so, why?

Wlad has the tools to be absolutely dominating, but given his history of being unable to take a punch well, many will tune in, in hopes of him being KO'd. If he beats Briggs, and Rahman beats Maskaev, expect Wlad to KO Rahman inside of 5 rounds.
Oh sh**!!!!!!!!!! I watched that fight a long time ago and for some reason got Vitali and Wlad confused. Nevermind that comment I made about Wlad. Damn someone could of told me instead talking sh** the whole time.
most of you guys cannot read very well, let me explain
the statement was wlad was "becoming a perfect heavy"
the statement was not wlad is "becoming the greatest heavyweight champ of all time"
stewards comments allude to these simple facts.

A) the best jab by a mile and a half
B) the most accurate and powerful straight right hand
C) the best left hook in the division (if someone says tuas is better they should be banned
D) wladamir is in the best physical shape of any heavyweight
E) wlad has quicker hands than any heavyweight who has considerable power
F) wladamir is trained and disciplined to minimize his weaknesses moreso than anyone else at heavyweight
G) wladamir has the ideal physical size to handle todays bigger heavyweights and the speed and quickness to dominate the few that are bigger
H) people criticized his stamina, but it is no longer an issue because he has become the most economical puncher in the division. he never throws a big shot that doesent at least partially land
F) wladamir is the smartest heavyweight fighter.
