Wlad fans are a delusional, pathetic bunch

[Run]

I think Lewis had better handspeed.

Smokin, you can't be serious.

Lewis had nothing on Wlad in that department at all. Not even close. That's one thing that Ronnie Shields pointed out and virtually everyone else noticed about Wlad since day one........was the fact that he had the fastest hands on a bigman anyone had ever seen. Shields said they're faster than prime Tyson, and he trained both. That's the first thing I ever noticed about him.

ill be the first to tell you, im am not a wlad fan....but he is the best we got right now, has some nice skills, and is one of the fastest heavies in recent memory.

Well said

Let me get onto what makes Klitschko such a tough opponent.

Not only is he a talent capable of using the ring in superb fashion, he's adept at holding when he has to and while people hate to see that, it's something that works. With a jab, cross and left hook like he possesses, along with boxing's most scientific brain in his corner in Steward, he can beat any of the current heavyweights 3/3 times without a problem...Age will be what becomes the end of Klitschko, or if he loses his hunger for the sport. Because you gotta ****ing want it and it's suprising to see how hard Klitschko trains even after he made millions already. Klitschko is better than Lewis was, better than McCall was.

I wish Wlad came about a while ago though. I would have loved to see him fight George Foreman. That would be a superb clash for Heavyweight supremacy.

People tend to forget one thing. The Soviet countries, until the Reagan era, or if you didn't like him, the Reagan error,had zilch for training at boxing, and promoters, and trainers...Who knows how good they may have been had they been free to fight worldwide ( This goes for Cuba as well ) way back since Dempsey/ JAck Johnson...and up thru now. USA has had the best trainers...boxing gyms, etc..etc.
environment is the main factor for such things..I mean, how many white kids from rural VT, have a chance to go to a boxing gym?? there aint one for hours by car....and how many inner city kids can learn to be a pro hockey player, with nothing around for them to learn.
Had Wlad been born here and raised here, in a low income environment he may very well be a killer by now

[drvooh]

Alright there boss. Wladimir is a poor mans vers of Lennox Lewis..just admit it

I've seen both of them. The differences I see, anyway, is Wlad I think has a faster jab...but Wlad does not fight inside well, atleast not now. And backing up, it's hard for him to land.
Lewis has the advantage there. But even at 31, Wlad is still gonna learn
( I believe ) more..and under Steward, he's got a shot at being up there with all the great ones..or atleast all the very good ones.

u really think wlad could beat george foreman? wait which george are u talkin about? the prime george, or the return of george? cuz i think the prime george would make easy work of wlad, i doubt wlad could eat one of those monstrous shots...

When fighting george, Wlad would have to learn to throw em while backing up. His chance would be to use his height and reach to keep big George away...Ali knew how to wear him down, cause george was not good with stamina. If Wlad tried to ko him right away, with full arsenal, he'd get a Corrie Sanders treatment from George, whereas, if Ali were mentally stable, and schooled Wlad on George, he'd have an outside chance. Wlad hits harder than Ali did, he just doesn't know how to handle styles as Ali did, and cannot fight well inside, which is part of what made Ali great

Smokin' is just bored, I think.

Stop it guys, why are you trying to prove the same point for a hundred's time? True haters and followers are blind to the reason, there will never be any crossovers.

I seriously doubt that Wlad would last more than 10 rounds with young Foreman.

[GranTorino]

Its funny that you mention that because Wlad doesn't even throw uppercuts. I have never seen him throw one.

Ask Lamon Brewster if Wlad throws uppercuts.

Smokin' is a delusional, pathetic poster who has nothing but hate for the best heavyweight in the world right now. I wonder if his name came from his smokin' crack...maybe he hates Wlad because he's a clean living man, not into smokin' crack or into gay actors like Smokin' has on his avatar.
