Both brothers have DESTROYED every opposition they've faced for 10 plus years now. No one has even come close to touching them... EVERY fighter they've faced can't be bad.. sooner or later one must give credit where credit is due.. these are 2 hulking 6 ft 6 plus giants with jabs you can't get through.
If you try to force the action & get inside the jab & close distance you get greeted by monster right hands. Klitschko's have size.. right hand bombs & jabs in there arsenal. What happened to David Haye.. wasn't he supposed to get inside?
Let's stop the madness with excuses about poor competition & recognize Klitschko dominance for what it is & please let's STOP with the "boring" comments... almost Everyone gets knocked out... come on now!
If Wladimir is boring in your mind you must find Rigo, Bhop, Mayweather and Andre Ward boring aswell.
How on earth is my post Racist? I can't believe you red k'd that :lol1:
The major difference is, the aforementioned fighters aren't 6'7 and weigh 250 lbs. Also, neither like to lean on the back of their opponents necks while shoving them down to the canvas either.
In addition, all of them throw more punches and their fights are all more highly entertaining and crowd pleasing than W. Klitschko's; Who hardly throws enough punches, while excessively clinching his over matched opponents out of fear of getting KO and punching himself out.
That is just plain pathetic in my opinion, for a man who calls himself the champion of Heavyweights; The most glamorous and prestigious division in all of boxing and sports in the world to compete so cowardly.
Heavyweight division is the most dangerous division to compete in any man can change the outcome realistically of a fight with just one punch and you're asking Wladimir to fight with no defense?
Constant excuses but no real backing evidence.
Bhop fights extremely defensive minded
Andre Ward fights the same way...
Rigo fights with defense absolutely in mind why else do you think he runs about in the ring avoiding toe to toe action?
But they get a pass in your deluded little mind I guess.
How so? For **** sake one is hyped because he's addicted to Twitter and the other one beat a bunch of taxi drivers.
Sport's wise the best opponents for Wlad are Pulev, the winner of Jennings/Perez and the winner of Arreola/Stiverne.
Pulev doesnt have the tools to threaten Wlad
Only guys who can pose a threat to Wlad are the ones who can close the distance and match him for share size and power
Fury and Wilder both fit the mold
Pulev will spend round after round trying to get past the jab, leaning and clinching, after which he will be tired and be eventually knocked out
Pulev is slow and plodding, he doesnt have reflexes or head moevement like Haye to avoid Wlads power shots
That's all in the past and forgiven.....time to face Wilder now. No other options will be acceptable, put up or shut up.
:lol1: And when he outclasses Wielder another name is going to pop up. My bet will be Joshua. A repeat of the aftermath of David Haye.

Trust me I wanna see that as well... but if Wlad destroys him & doesn't get props.. something gotta be wrong.. who cares if the guy is raw... if Wilder gets destroyed...Klitschko will have picked on somebody his own size with similar power... no excuses.
I rate Wladimir; I really do. He's one of my favourite boxers. And yes, I stick by my comment. Wladimir carried Alex. He may have looked good in the process, but it was akin to Cristiano Ronaldo and Real Madrid playing against a part-time outfit.
I'm just glad this fight is out of the way. Next a serious contender in Pulev!
War Klitschko!
All I'm saying is some fighters even though they look like they are just target practice aren't going to lie down that fast.. yes Wlad is going to be cautious before he truly commits but not every opponent is going to go that quickly.. some don't even go at all but eventually Klitschko is the first to stop them.
yoz is by no means klitschko hater. the guy actually likes Wlad and is, by the way, the one of the best posters around. ;)
I'm talking about the statement made more than the actual poster... It's the same ole.. same ole... The Klitschko's should've knocked this guy out sooner rather than toying with them & some of these dudes have never even been knocked out before.... other fighters are most probably gonna go the distance with them.. why don't they just ice them like TYSON used to do... did TYSON ice every opponent he faced in 90 seconds? Did he even get more actual stoppages than the Klitschko's.... so calling something boring even though both brother's have top 5 alltime stoppage rates & top 2 scorecard rates in heavyweight history is ridiculous.

The "still went 5 rds" is the worst bs hatred one can come up with.... Klitschko is THE ONLY one to destroy him in said fashion but he should've done it sooner? You're actually admitting how great Klitschko is by making such statements & you don't even know it.

Those fighters are all arguably boring.
The thing is despite not being a Floyd fan I admit he's one of the best defensive boxers ever. I'll be cheering for Maidana on a personality/style basis. Not because I deny Floyd is a phenomenal boxer.
People come on here and straight up say Wladimir is a joke who sucks and lords over the worst opponents in history. Nobody on planet Earth can beat him at boxing but he sucks.
Calling him boring is fine but once they start to detract from his skill and talk about some NBA player would whoop him with a few weeks training (yes I've seen them say that numerous times) they look like full-blown retards.
Vitali Klitschko is the only one that can beat him. Vitali is aggressive.. can take a punch & will be throwing more leather.. simply put.. Wlad couldn't dictate distance with Vitali & would be tagged from long range... he'd be forced into fighting at a faster pace & Wlad couldn't hug his bro.. it'd simply come down to the chin & Wlad would get hit in this fight & that's where he' s shet out of luck.

I agree, in part; but another part of me wishes Wlad would be more clinical with this trash opposition. Let's be frank, Leapai only ever stood a puncher's chance. He was completely outmatched and it was obvious from Round 1. Wladimir should have upped the pace and not carried him. I know Wlad likes to give 'value for money', but i'm growing tired of this BS. Leapai is the worst opponent he has faced in years, and it still went 5 rounds.

I don't rate Fury at all, but all the talk before the fight about how Wlad is a 'bad ass' and how he'd finished Leapai 'early', I, perhaps rather naively, expected him to follow up on his words. Leapai was, as expected, rubbish. Wlad could have finished him way earlier and in clinical fashion. He does himself no favours sometimes.
Anyway, Pulev next. That should be a better fight.
fight was mando.. it is what it is.. rubbish fight, because of rubbish opponent, but I still enjoyed it as wlad looked very good. He actually fought a bit like Vitali at times - nice to see :)
I know this is waaay down the round and might never happen, but the only guy I see as the legit dangerous for Wlad in next 3-4 years is Anthony Joshua. That kid will be big!
Fury & Wilder are both his size... do they have jabs like KLitschko in there arsenal? We've had hundreds of super heavyweights to lace them up through the years... how many have had monster jabs & super right hands to go along with it except for two brothers from the Ukraine...size matters to everyone else not named Klitschko.
There are levels and levels between Wlad and Fury. Fury gets tagged in every fight no matter if he fights Cunningham, Chisorra or no-hopers Pajkic or Joey Abell. He gets tagged. It's ok when you fight these guys, but against Wlad it's bye-bye...
Wlad wins every round by beating you. Your only chance is to KO Wlad and that's awfully hard against wlad with emanuel's brain.
i mean if wlad beats fury and wilder, i dont see where else he can go, its the best two fights to end his resume on
wilder vs fury fighting each other is a good idea, and will more than likely happen sooner or late, however i'd like to see both men fight wlad, just because if one loses it should not mean he doesnt get to fight wlad
both have different strengths and assets, wilder has raw power, and fury has experience and mental strength
How so? For **** sake one is hyped because he's addicted to Twitter and the other one beat a bunch of taxi drivers.
Sport's wise the best opponents for Wlad are Pulev, the winner of Jennings/Perez and the winner of Arreola/Stiverne.

I find Bhop and Ward quite boring. Constant unneccessary clinching is boring to me as a fight fan.
