I dont get it. He had a horribly boring fight in where he looked like a scared ***** and all of a sudden, he doesn't know how to fight and he's boring? Was this being said after Austin, Brewester, Brock, etc?
So most of Wlad's last fights have been boring or what?

There you go.
But that's that "You're only as good as your last fight" mentality most people have. You have a bad night and people competely trash you and write you off. -

I think this was the most cautious Klitschko I have ever seen, the second Brewster fight was pretty boring and one sided, Brock had his moments in their fight and the fight was somewhat boring until Klitschko decided to step it up and go for the KO, the rest of his fights are OK.Comment

Ibragimov was unbeaten for a reason. He's very quick and has decent power. Tonight he was prepared to level the size differential by making Klit reach in. He basically crouched down and back on his rear leg all night with his arm coiled to throw. Klit simply wouldn't take the bait. Most fighters would probably have gotten impatient and REACHED in for some shots and GOTTEN CAUGHT BIG with the counters he had waiting.
Yes, it was boring, but it wasn't just a case of Klit being a *****. When he has a fighter in front of him he's usually pretty busy. I guarantee the Povetkin fight will be bombs away until APov is flat on his face/back.Comment

I didnt think the Ibragimov fight was THAT bad...but the majority of Wlad's fights after the first Brewster fight were not that exciting until the knockout. so basically the only things that are exciting about Wlad's fights are the knockouts. Because there was no knockout this time around, it lost a lot of its excitement.
thats my explanation for everyones reaction anyway...
up until the first Brewster fight, Wlad was great to watch, he went right after people.
edit-by the way yall, stop making Ibragimov out to be more than he is. he is not that slick...a slick fighter wouldnt have started forgetting completely about head movement and started lunging at Wlad with incredibly wide punches, and wouldnt have kept backing up onto the ropes. I would have expected a little ring movement too...Last edited by Steak; 02-24-2008, 03:05 AM.Comment

Some people in here actually knows and understands a little bit of boxing.
Many people in here have never even sparred and talk **** out of their arses like they make money on it.
I'm truly amazed that most of you guys goes crazy when a credible character express some concern that maybe Wlad is losing it a touch mentally.
Instead of using your imaginations and open your minds for some fresh thoughts, you people go absolutely ten miles out of your ways to
OVER-defend Wladimir.
Today I've learned who deserves to be taken seriously and who deserves to be ignored.
Intelligent people seek discussions to feed their brain with some quality fuel.
We call this "mental stimulation".
****** people seek discussions to spread their viewpoint, to get acknowledgement from others, to feel important, to look smart etc.
It's not about whether you agree or not, it's about opening your mind to other ideas- new ways of thinking if you like.
I pay attention to what people say and tries to understand how their mind works. Why?
To advance myself as a human being.
A difficult concept this, I can dig that. But ****** people I got no time for.Comment
