Steward quote about Wlad.

[PBDS]

IMO, Devarryl fight was going the Brock route. Wlad had him and TOS was very lucky to sruvive the round where he knocked Wlad down

...Yep, and I'm surprised Scap didn't see it that way. I'm gonna tie that ****er up and make him watch it 100 times until he gets that **** straight in his head. He probably threw that part in there just to piss me off though.

yea,,has always cracked me up how some say wlad was almost knocked out in that round. he missed a big right hand and was all off balance when williamson landed the counter right. he got up completely clear eyed and dominated the rest of the round hurting williamson and had him hanging on

...Scap is a Wlad fan to. He must have been hitting the crack pipe that day or something.

.....Wow, look at the bolded in particular below.

Emanuel Steward (Wladimir Klitschko's trainer): "We have a great deal of respect for Ray Austin, more than Ray apparently has for Wlad judging by his comments at the first press conference. I have the same respect for Ray that we had for Chris Byrd."

After one minute of the first round everything will change for Ray Austin when he realizes who he is in the ring with. Wladimir is on a different level and at age 30, he's already entering his 51st fight. Ray Austin is running into the growth and progression of Wlad.

"Those watching the fight are going to be lucky enough to see the emergence of one of the greatest heavyweights ever, Wladimir Klitschko."

I wonder how Lewis felt when he read that line, coming from Stewart and all.

skill?? the way Toney and Byrd slip punches and fire back counters takes skill, the way mosley and de le hoya set up 6-7 punch lighting fast combos shows skill, pawing with th jab and leaning on people while gassing out does not show skill. WladimIr Klitschko has power and thats it. He has no stamina, no head movment, no pressure, no footwork, no blazing speed, no combos, no chin, he paws with the jab and leaves it out alot, all he does is look for the big right hand and he holds when the opponent gets to close.

[Animal Squabbs]

and someone explain to me how beating Ray Austin = the emergence of one of the greatest fighters ever?? So if Briggs beat David Bostice is he HoF worthy??

[Easy-E]

Thats part of it, but it also has a lot to with him getting waaayyyy too much praise from a lot of his fans.

True.
Also, his level of competition isnt steller, and it doesnt seem as though he wants to unify the division...

sugar shane moseley loves to paw with his jab and hold it out and even leave his hand open, which is illegal, why is it alright for him to do but not wlad??

wladamir also has good movement, he can slip punches without taking himself out of punching position and that is a very real skill that a boxing fan whp pays attention can see with his own eyes....

his handspeed is among the top at the heavyweight level... doesent throw combos..... go back and watch the byrd fight after the 1st knockdown and watch the blazing handspeed and 3-4 punch combos that wlad throws when he backs byrd to the ropes... no other heavyweight can match him on both levels.

he also left hooks off his jab as good or better than just about anyone in the world regardless of class

And yet Byrd got hit NON stop in 2 fights with Kilts and couldn't land ****..
The rest of what you typed.. is what you wish.. NOT reality...
And I refuse to comment on it any further.. The stuff I highlighted says All I need to say..

[Derranged]

sanders style is too bad for wlad, with that iron chin and looping rock hard punches, hes gonna take some to give some and in wlads avarage chin(not glass), wlads gonna get hurt...

to bea sanders you have to be fast, good chin, powerful and aggressive...wlad is to pasive

Sanders does not have an iron chin. I believe all of his fights he lost he has been stopped.
