    Gee, and after all of your posts condemning other people for being condescending.

    Not Wlad's best performance, but he did beat a guy with a successful, extensive amatuer background who is a quick, counterpunching southpaw with an awkward style. Wlad's biggest weapon is his jab and it's very difficult to land a jab on a southpaw, yet he found a way to land at a very high rate, while completely nullifying Sultan's jab. With 44 knockouts in 49 previous wins, I think the man is entitled to have someone go the distance with him, especially if that person is a undefeated world champ, who has never been stopped, even in the amatuers.
    Sarcasm.

    Children= single track minds.

    Wlad secured himself a good victory as you so kindly pointed out.

    But I think I've made it clear that the performance of Wlad is not what I'm arguing over here.

    Oh, and I do have a simple mind.

    I do as I say, I mean what I speak, I express what I feel and generally just carries myself in a laid-back manner.

    I'm not very difficult to discuss with as I don't think of my own thoughts as the ultimate truth.
    I admit when I know I'm wrong.

    But I'm not wrong when I say that you people come across as narrow-minded and ****** when you go out of your ways to justify what Wlad did or did not do in that ring without even considering what some people on here is suggesting.

    Whether Addison is far off the mark or close to bullseye is not the issue.

      I think he made himself more attractive to the other belt holders, which, as we all know, makes unification even more of a possibility.

      sultan has the fastest hands of any heavyweight out there. wlad used the best weapon to counter that, his long ass jab.. i don't think people criticized sonny for using his jab too much. he almost knocked him down several times, save for the ropes, with the jab. no harm in that.

        klitchsko always looks scared to me . i thought the fight was closer than most the first 6 rounds wasn't **** happening and those rounds could of went either way and sultan got caught with a couple right hands and he ate them.i do think klitchsko is weary of getting hit in his fights

          Ibragimov is a counter puncher. Any noob boxing fan knows that. And if you throw a powershot the way Wlad throws the right, and miss, you'll be exposed to recieve a powershot in return.

          Only a dumb**** would willingly open himself up to be hit, you ****ing ******.

          Now...

            I think it was a combination of two things. One, Ibragimov has a difficult style to deal with. People are not giving Imbragimov enough credit who made sure that he wasn’t going to get hit by any huge shots. Second, Klitschko values quality over quantity. He wants every punch he throws to be accurate and refuses to waste punches.

            I would have like to have seen more combinations but let's be fair, he won the fight easily. Also, a Klitschko jab has to be mentioned as one of the most effective punches in all of boxing. While it may not always be exciting, he has proven that he can win a fight on that punch alone.
            This again? Ibragimov WAS NOT difficult. PERIOD. Good excuse though..

That's just asking for trouble and risking the fight for no reason instead of sailing through the decision like he did. It was his first unification fight and he was very nervous.
                The lengths to witch presumptious know it all ball swallowers will go never ceases to amaze..:*******: :*******: :*******:

                  You seem to know how this works. What are you doing here then?

                  Worst kind of complainer. ^^

If Wlad was truly afraid of getting hit he wouldn't have stood so close to Sultan and leaned in so far. Who gives a **** if he puts up one boring fight? Lennox made a career of it and he gets his **** ****** as a top five heavy. Wlad wanted to make a statement in this fight but Sultan is one tough cookie and he's hard to read. It's obvious that the Austin fight was kind of a fluke for Sultan as he indeed took some huge shots from Wlad. He's a tough tough matchup for anyone. I knew this was going to be an ugly fight. Bottom line is that Wlady is the best heavy in the world and the beat goes on. Anyone who doesn't like it can suck it.
                      What?
                      Lennox wasn't boring
