i coulda swore this was boxing no?
isnt pushing down on someones head like that illegal? its not like mormeck was headbutting wlads chest he was trying to get inside on the big man to land punches.
That is the Klits style. Punch, punch, clinch, lean. Anytime someone gets inside they will clinch or they will stumble back clumsily to avoid fighting on the inside.
That's exactly what he should have done. The ref kept warning him but refused to deduct any points. It's definitely a foul but they never penalized the Klitchko's in Germany.
if Mormeck was able to last a few more rds the ref might have. I was surprised the ref warned him at all tbh, it is Germany.
I was hoping he would to see what Wlad would do if the ref deducted a point and prevented him from doing it again. Wlad was throwing hooks and uppercuts (well at least one uppercut lol) from the first rd. I was hoping to see him do some inside fighting too before the inevitable happened Mormeck got KTFO.
Hopefully Wlad does this a bit more often from now on and doesnt just reserve it for the ****tiest challengers. I might start to look forward to his fights if he does. Wishful thinking lol
mormeck should of gave wlad some low blows lol

yes, traitor. i hope the secret police finds you and execute you
you just wish this hot 6`8ft brunette Wladimir would of been from ur country. duh..take him lol
Mormeck kept coming in with his head
well if you are trying to get inside your head has to come with you. you can't just leave your head behind. mormeck wasn't touching wlad with his head. that's just an excuse to defend illegal tactics. oh well he might have headbutted me but he didn't. making your opponent uncomfortable is not illegal.
in the first round alone there were over 15 clinches. Everytime they clinched, Wlad leaned into the shorter man---thus discouraging him from trying to fight on the inside...then Wlad starts sticking that jab in his face, keeps him on the end of it, discourages him- then out with the right hand, and goodnight.
Personally, i have no problem with these tacticss
excessive clinching and pushing of the head is quite annoying and should be penalized more
i'd much rather watch fighters go forehead to forehead fighting like bulls on the inside rather than "oh shit im horrible at fighting on the inside so im gonna clinch or push his head down!"
