The New Wladimir Klitschko is Unstoppable

[ThaHorseman]

I know it sounds crazy but hear me out. I used to think he would steam roll him...but that was the old Wlad.

Wlad doesn't steam-roll guys anymore. Even against Austin, the early KO was from a pot shot left hook to the temple. And I'm pretty sure Austin layed down and just cashed the paycheque. But that is a different story in itself.

It's not like Klitschko comes out with bad intentions a la Lewis-Golota. Before he fights, it's a posing contest, just like the Brock fight before the knockout. Wlad post-Brewster/Peter fights SO CAUTIOUSLY - which in turns gives guys extra chances by allowing them to last longer in the fight. If Valuev's chin (which still has yet to be really tested in my book) is as strong as some suggest, and he can stay strong in the middle rounds, Wlad will collapse under the pressure. Valuev despite being the bigger, heavier man has shown better stamina then Wlad, and while not a big puncher has enough power to hurt Klitschko.

I think your analysis is way off. Wlad is less active (more cautious) in fights because he's giving his opponents LESS chances even though they may last more rounds. He's being a smart boxer and playing to his strengths and limiting his weaknesses. He's shown improved defense the past few years, while patiently setting his opponents up for KO's. This comes from him being more mature, so I doubt he'd collapse under the pressure. He didn't against Peter. He wins rounds with his jab and when he sees an opportunity, he throws his straight right. Wlad is fighting better than he ever has.

Wlad has looked very impressive as of late, albeit against questionable opposition (except MAYBE Brock and Brewster). I'd love to see him fight another title holder. I think Iggy can give him a decent fight but I'd say Wlad tko 7. Peter I think has been proven to be overated by almost getting stopped by McCline. However his power could pose a threat if Wlad gets sloppy. I still say Wlad Tko6. Chagaev I think is the best fight that Wlad could take. He's slick, powerful, and a southpaw. Everyone knows southpaws have given Wlad some trouble (Sanders). I'd say Wlad would still win though either by Tko11 or semi close UD.

You haters can't deny it, no HW stands a chance against Dr. Steelhammer.
The only fighter that has a realistic chance against Wlad is his very own brother Vitali "Dr.Iron Fist" Klitschko.

Emmanuel Steward has turned WLAD into a KILLING MACHINE and everyone in Wlad's path will be destroyed.

You haters have to accept the fact that Wladimir Klitschko is a Beast and he is definately an ALL TIME GREAT.

Wlad vs Peter II - Wlad KO 4

Wlad vs Ibragimov - Wlad KO 6

Wlad vs Chagaev - Wlad TKO 10

Haters want Wlad to avenge Purrity and Sanders

Wlad vs Purrity II - Wlad KO 1

Wlad vs Sanders II - Wlad KO 3

Negative!!!!

When was the last time someone even won a round against Wlad? No one can beat Wlad right now.



Like I said before, Ill put all my points on Wlad in his next fight. Dont know who he fights or care. Wlad will beat them. Any takers?

Wlad vs Brewster looked like a man vs a boy. Wlad vs Austin looked like a Man vs a toddler. Wlad is a beast right now, I wish Lennox would come out of retirement to fight, bc thats the only guy who has a reasonable shot at beating him....well maybe Chagaev might give him a match, but still...

Lewis is way too old for this Wlad. Prime vs Prime would have been sweet.


I dont give anyone a chance against Wlad right now.

Chagaev is a good fighter, but there's no way would he defeat Wladimir.

[Pugilistic™]

i have to agree, i don't see any heavys at the moment beating him

Chagaev is a good fighter, but there's no way would he defeat Wladimir.

I think he can beat wlad but i agree wlad will be favorite.
