Wlad isn't a NATURAL BORN fighter.....

[My Name Is...]

IMO

I just think he is NOT a NATURAL BORN BOXER or FIGHTER. Some people have the bloodline, some people have the fighters instinct, some people are just born to fight. I think he was MADE into a boxer because of his older brother Vitali (who is miles better than wlad) and also because of his imposing figure. I feel the only reason that he has had some success is because of his physique and because of his height. He is just too BASIC and was TAUGHT to box, he didnt grow up in or loving boxing, unlike his brother his is more fluid and not so mechanical. He fell into boxing when Vitali started. Look at other fighters like Lennox, Mike Tyson, Israel Vasquez, Floyd, Cotto, Mijares, Erik Morales. Those are NATURAL BORN fighters and are born to fight. They were not taught to fight, their fighting ability got polished into more of a boxing mode. Just like pit bulls are born to fight, it is in these fighters blood. Now dont get it twisted, I do like Wlad and think him as a person is good for the sport and seems like a very cool guy, but I just dont see it in Wlad, and I think that is why he isnt as good as advertised.

ONE lackluster fight and we get ridiculous posts like this.

Wlad would put you in a coma with ONE jab son...show some respect for the champ.

I am a Wlad fan but it's not justone fight. Look at the first Brewster fight. The Corrie Sanders fight, and the Sam Peter fight. Yeah he beat Peter but he went down 3 times. He survived from being so tall and long, not because he was THAT good.

He dominated Peter the entire fight. The first two knockdowns, Peter wrestled him and then squarely rabbit punched him, if you'd actually watched the fight, you'd know that. The first Brewster fight and the Sanders fight are part of the reason that he is overly cautious today, can you really blame him?

There was only 1 legit knockdown in the Peter fight..the other 2 were from illegal rabbit punches behind the head from Peter...he should've been deducted at least a point, but the dumbass ref let him get away with it all night.

Wlad showed a lot of HEART in that fight, he got off the canvas and dominated every single minute of the fight exposing Peter....Wlad took a huge left hook on the chin in the 12th round and came back seconds later with a beautiful counter left hook that hurt Peter badly, Peter is lucky there wasn't a 13th round or he would've been killed....Wlad would KO Peter in a rematch, Guranteed.

Wlad is one of the most talented heavyweights of all time...show some respect.

But thats what I mean he is tall and should be more fluid. Thats why Im saying he is a natural born fighter. With someone is height and his ability he should have been able to keep his distance. there is nore reason for Peter to get inside on him and throw punches. He could boxer better than he does. He doesnt have the killer instinct, and folds under pressur. Look at Morales and Barrera, when they fought and they were hurt they fought back even harder. When Vasquez got hurt by Marquez he came back and fought even harder. Even when Vitali was cut and getting hit by Lennox he came back even harder and didnt want the fight to stop. He was willing to give his all versus Lennox, I just dont see that kind of fire and fighters mentality in Wlad.


Like I said I LIKE wlad, I just dont see "IT" in him like other champions.
