The Perfect Heavyweight!

[Njord777]

Klitschko. Am I saying I think he's the best fighter out there? No. The most skilled, hardest puncher, or most offensive? No. So, why do I say he might be the perfect type of heavyweight? I've had people who hate boxing watch Klitschko-Byrd and Klitschko-Brock and they like him. Why? Well, because he knocked those guys out and looked good doing it. But further, the boxing fans in the room always knew at any moment we could see Vlad hit the deck. That glass chin makes us hold our breaths until the very moment it is over.

You get excitement from his fights. Because he will dominate? No. Not at all. Because, most likely, someone is going to get KTFO...and you don't know if it will be the other guy or Klitschko...but it's probably coming. What more can you ask for? Ha.

also keep in mind that he is the only top heavyweight who always shows up in his best shape.

and also, as a sidenote, wladamir has not fought an opponent with more than 4 career losses in more than 7 years. (dec. 99)

That just adds to it. Good points. I didn't know that.

if wlad had vitalis chin then i dont think he could be beat

But him having the glass chin and being open to getting KOed at any moment is part of what makes his fights so exciting. You never know what will happen. Having confidence in him his a risky business.

if chris byrd had mike tysons power, he wouldn't be beat, but......he doesn't.

I'll tell you what makes Wlad a better man than any other boxer out there, much less a better boxer.

He and his brother have done more for others than any other boxer (that I know of anyway).

They are constantly going to Africa and other countries on behalf of UNESCO, a charity that they throw themselves, and their money into wholeheartedly.

Also, Wlad NEVER, EVER bad mouths anyone. When press time comes, he's always polite, well spoken, and respectful to everyone, including his opponent, the press, and even that big mouthed rude ***** Shannon Briggs when he crashed Wlad/Brock postfight press conference like the inconsiderate ****sucker that he is (way to squelch that negative stereotype of loudmouthed braggarts that haunts your race, Shannon). Wlad never loses his cool.
Show me any boxer who is as nice, personable, and charitable, as Wladimir Klitschko.

By the way, if someone knows how to get in touch with Briggs, please, point him to this post. I'd love for him to know what I think of him.

Sad thing is, I used to respect Shannon, till he pulled that ****.

if wlad WAS vitali. that the only way he couldnt be beat

i know one thing if tyson after he switched to orthodox to build up his right.. switched back to southpaw when he was 15 or 16 only then would he have been the greatest fighter.. tyson was a born fighter he didnt have tobe taught.. tyson didnt ruin him self ... they ruined him by teaching him a way to fight that wasnt natural.. some southpaws shoud be converted but some should not.

He doesnt have a bad chin, every time he goes down he always gets back up.
