The fight was not exciting, i know it, you know it, no point to discuss it.
Anybody watching a klitschko fight should forget getting over the top excitement, you not going to get it.
Watching a klitschko fight is watching boxing.
Kind of like floyd at 147(i am not comparing floyd p4p, just stating similarities), both have very precise boxing, and excellent skill+technique.
Onto my question.
Is it just me, or is he damn fast, i mean his hands and feet, not his bobbing and weaving.
That left hand seems to fly at superspeed, and once he finds that distance, that right hand is like a hydraulic pump!
plus, he cuts off the ring really well, seems to be very fast for a heavy?
discuss.
Even Max Kellerman and Teddy Atlas acknowledged Wlad has very fast hands, in his first appearance on ESPN against Jackson back in 1999.
How's it hanging Tunney? You're not the one who has me on ignore are you? I tried to reply to a thread that you created about Vlad and I couldn't. Even though I'm not feeling Vlad there are times of where we agree on other aspects of the boxing landscape. But to answer your question, Vlad does have fast hands. It would just be nice to see him throw combos like other posters are mentioning.
yes, he is damn fast for his size, but he was even quicker a few years ago, especially before he got with Steward. check out wlad vs jefferson for example. im surprised you just noticed this. he's one boring guy but ive always been impressed with his speed. more so than his power. his power is a given considering his size.
it sucks he cant be more of an exciting fighter. but i agree with what you said about getting over the excitement factor. he aint never going to be fun to watch. only to his die hard fans.

Tonight was the first time i realized how fast Wlad's hands were.
