    Yeah it looked pretty ******ed. Just another thing Steward has taught him and to abuse it. First it was leaning on top of his opponent where it looked like he was gonna fall down with them all the time. Then it's slap the **** out of your opponents jab. Maybe break his hand in the process so you won't have to worry about a jab period. Eitherway, he looked ******ed and by the amount of work he did following that, it seemed rather useless.

      That's a regular part of Wlad's game, but he overused it Saturday, often without purpose. One replay however did show how he once first smacked down Sultan's hand, then quickly smacked down SI's right shoulder to shoot a right hand over it. I think that was the plan he was not executing for most of the fight

        Is it a legal move?

          Why wouldn't it be? It's actually more common than you might think, it's just that Wlad was exaggerating it in this fight.

            Jim Watt was saying it was an illegal punch as he was hitting sultans hand with the inside of his glove.

              i was expecting exactly that, parry the jab in that way to set up the Wlad´s right hand...but he wasnt throwing it. For me it looked very strange, if u are not going to throw the right hand after the parry...why r u gonna do it?
              I gave him the bennefit of the doubt because i thought it could be a hidden plan designed by steward, if not...he did a useless job

                he wasnt hitting iggys hand...just pushing it down. Thats a legal move.

                    yep i was confused by it as well... surely hitting the glove like that and making no attempt to hit a scoring area of your opponents body is illegal?
