Wladomir Klitchko is the man most feel is on top of the HW mountain, he's a guy with Big Time Power, above average speed, he's a huge fighter at 6ft 6inch, His jab is out of this world, his left hook and straight right brutal shots, He is white which helps market a fighter apparently, outside the ring he is intelligent, articulate, does lots for charitys and such basically he is a nice and likeable guy!
I WANT to root for him! But as soon as he starts fighting its bloody hard too, this guy has SO much potential its unreal yet insists on fighting like he is scared to death! After being stopped 3 times a bit of caution is ok but he is WAY over board, Rahman was done after a round, the guy just sat there on the ropes throwing NOTHING and Wlad still wouldnt throw a three punch combo! If Wlad would just string a few shots together here and there Mabey even throw one or two body shots just to mix things up he'd be LOVED by all!
THE most Frustrating fighter of all time.
You can thank Emanuel Steward for his style. Before he was with Manny he was an exciting fighter, but he got hit too much. Now he makes sure he won't take hard shots.
You know, Manny is ridiculously good at seeing attributes in fighters. Maybe he knows how bad Wlad's chin really is.

I like Wlad as a character.
He is eloquent and charming.
I find it hard to criticise him as ever since he has adopted this ultra cautious style he has won basically every single round and never looked remotely like losing.
If you're Wlad, you change nothing.You must have missed the sam Peter fight then.

i really hope ur wrong and Haye can get the win but i fear ur right!Based on what I've seen of the two, I give Haye a fairly decent shot of pulling off the upset, but you just can't be too sure how well he'll handle the weight and a good heavyweight punch until we actually see him in there with a formidable heavyweight. Only time will tell.
haha... that prety much says is all doesn't it?
Yesterday's fight was just like any other Klitschko fight.. hardly worth a watch. What a piece of garbage that guy's fights are.. and sad thing is we're stuck with him because the only guy I really see beating him out there is his own f;esh and blood and won't ever be facing him anytime soon. Crrrap!

I watched the Iggy fight with my missus and had told her this Klitchko character was the HW champ and the best out there - she was like Whaaat!? THAT is the best out there!?

He has a patient style, similar in principle (though not in aesthetic) to Mayweather's late style. He positions himself where he can land his jab while NEVER getting countered, and from there he wins every round and waits for the opponent to weaken.
That's just smart boxing, it's not 'scared'.
Im in the same boat as everybody else, i try to like the guy he has so much talent but he just bores the shit out me, i was shouting for him to mix it up a bit throw a few combos he could have finshed that fight alot earlier and looked devasting and exciting doing it, but no same old shit jab jab jab
Exactly Rahamn was the perfect guy for him to look devastating against and i thought he actually might for a change! I was Screaming at the TV LET UR F*CKIN HANDS GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Where about in Scotland u from mate?
I used to like him. Last night I turned the fight off, I thought he would of give an exciting performance last night but no. Jab clinch, jab clinch, jab jab clinch. Thats the whole fight. He has so much potential it's just annoying how boring he's got.
I don't bother watching his fights anymore, I realised after Ibragimov that not one of his fights (unless he fights Haye or Arreola) will be worth watching.

You not the only one mate, I gave up on him after watching the Sultan fight, I use to love watching him even when he lost to Lamon brewtser but since that fight he has turn his exciting style to one of the worst style i have ever seen at HW in the last 20 years.
He has a big right hand but he rarely lets it go, When opponent throw a punch or feist at Wlad he run to hold as quick as possible.
Its difficult to watch a fighter who was very exciting turn boring all of a sudden...like i said before i have given up on the HW.
If the guy doesnt have the talent then i can live with it not when he has all the talent and advantages over his smaller/weak opponents
Spot on post man
