    They didn't hit his chin clean because some of them hit him at the back of his head.

      Really? So that punch he nailed Wlad with in the third (maybe the fifth, I'll have to check) WASN'T the famous hook that Peter had KO'd Williams, Sykes, and countless others with? Watch the fight again, big boy.

      "all the 3 knockdowns came from punches that barely connected"

      So Im guessing you haven't seen the fight then? Because if you had, you'd have not only seen with your own two eyes when they played the replays of at least two of the kd's that Wlad went down from being pushed, not from any punch from Peter being landed, but you would also have heard the commentators, one of them George Foreman (you know, the former world champion) say that very thing, that Wlad did not go down from a punch adn that the ref counting them as such was erroneous.

      Or perhaps you think you know more about boxing than George Foreman.

      Or maybe you're saying that you saw something different than what the commentators who were sitting THREE FEET from the fighters or saw something different than what the replay clearly showed?

        Several of the knockdowns did seem to be from him gassing out. I just watched it and they speak of just that problem. The Peter fight was no so much a fight displaying his bad chin as his questionable stamina to me.

          Wanna explain that?
          He never took Peters best punch and was still dropped 3 times.
          What the hell are you talking about????

              You said he took the best punches from Peter, which he didn't! I've seen the fight and I'm not blind!

                I guess you didnt even read my post then. Why not?

                If you had then you'd know that I referred to Peter nailing him with that left hook, and Wlad not going anywhere. And everyone knows that the left hook is Peters KO weapon.

                Maybe you need glasses?

                  Your just totally wrong. That left hook wasnt the massive punch landed on Williams or Sykes.
                  Regardless, Wlad was still dropped 3 times by peter.
                  You have no point.

                    I think you're being a bit harsh with him. The commentators do mention a couple of times, with everyone so conscious of Klitschko's chin, when he takes a good shot. A few very hard ones did land- from a big puncher- and they mention Klitschko not moving. Now, whether or not they were Peter's better punches, and the fact that smaller ones did the job in combination with Vlad's fatigue later in the fight, Klitschko did respectable for someone with supposedly no chin at all.

                      Actually I have two points. One: You apparently know nothing about boxing or just happily believe what you want in the face of complete proof to the contrary. Let's illustrate:

                      First, it was indeed the left hook that Peter used on both fighters.

                      Proven here:

                      If you scroll to about 4:31, you'll clearly see the KO, and clearly see the punch is indeed the left hook.



                      couldn't find a clip of the Sykes KO, so you can argue that if you want. But I've already proven you wrong, so Im not sure you'd want to do that or not.

                      Secondly, as far as Wlad being KD'd three times, as I've already pointed out to you, clearly two of them were not legitimate KD's, as they did not result from Wlad being punched by Peter, but rather by Wlad being PUSHED by Peter.

                      THE REPLAY OF THE KD'S CLEARLY SHOW, AND THE COMMENTATORS THEMSELVES SAY THAT THESE ARE NOT LEGIT KD'S. HOW CAN YOU ARGUE WITH SOMETHING THAT IS ON FILM? IT'S CLEAR TO SEE! MAYBE YOU'RE SAYING THAT THE REPLAY IS WRONG AND THAT THE VISION OF ALL THREE COMMENTATORS WHO WHERE THREE FEET FROM THE FIGHTERS DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY SAW?

                      Oh I hae a point. My point is that you and others who like to hate on Wlad are like children. You'll argue something even in the face of being proven wrong. It's a sad thing, really.
