    WOULD IT?

    Yeah, I'd say you're COMPLETELY missing the point..

      Take the innactivity, take the lack of right hands, THEN take the FRANTIC, JUMPY, FLAILING reactions of Klitchsko and you have FEAR, sir. FEAR.

      Take the man's record and experience and you have fear, over-caution..

      This isn't about one ****ing thing. It never is.

      What ever happened to "ALL THINGS CONSIDERED."

      I'm not nearly as one dimensional as these responses.

        Wlad didn't look or fight scared. If you want to see a nervous Wlad see the Peter fight where it was his last chance to make an impression after the TKO losses to Brewster and Sanders. Last night, Wlad looked calm to the point of indifference. He coasted and did enough to get by and control the fight, it is really as simple as that. I can understand his approach but as a fan you have to be disappointed at such a minimal effort.

          I completely disagree. ENTIRELY. There were a plethora of indicators.

            This was one of the worst, most boring fights I've ever watched. I'd almost rather watch Taylor-Spinks. Can't believe I missed the 2nd half of Memphis-UT for this crap. Heavyweights are junk.

              Definitely not fear, but over cautious he didnt want to mess up an opportunity like this to collect the titles. He was self conscious the whole fight not to make a mistake. Dont forget he pushed the action not the other way around.

                Fear of getting hurt and fear of failure are not the same thing, but both are fear. We don't know what was bothering him, but his physical reactions told a story. Wladimir does not want to exchange. He wants to be on offense or defense, but NOT exchanging or exposing himself to counters.

                Tell me, do you think Wladimir has 100% confidence in himself and his chin?

                  ****off, Addison, you did not even see the wood behind the trees.

                  Watch the fight again and this time watch Ibragimov, not just Wlad, I know he is less appealing from aesthetic point of view but you might learn something.

                  Watch especially which way he moves.

                    I had my eyes peeled on Ibragimov the entire fight, thank you very much.

                    I couldn't help but notice the herky-jerky, tense, nervous, charged up reactions of Wladimir. It was unmistakable.

                      Then watch ibragimov again.
                      Then go to a gym and find yourself a shorter quick lefty, then try to throw your right hand against him.
