yes the Klits are boring. Pavlik is jab, jab, jab, right.....jab,jab, right...jab,jab,right,left hook. Wladimir is. Hang left arm out forward to measure wind direction, slap away other fighter's hand.....jab...............jab.......clinch....... .clinch........jab...round over. You know he didn't throw a ***ing right hand until the 4th rd of the Ibragimov fight? Dude. Pavlik is like Lamotta compared to Wlad. If Wlad just lets the hooks go and throws a dozen right hands a round ala pre-Emmanuel Steward. Then Wlad can be entertainingComment

I am just saying Pavlik and Wlad fight exactly alike.. except Wlad is better defensively.. If you think watching you favorite fighter getting hit cleanly and almost KO'd by a guy would couldn't put away such chins as Cory Spinks.. Then more power to you.. And that is the Crux with all Klit haters.. according to y'all
Wlad is 1-3 having lost 3 times and bored us to death fighting Ibragimov ..
I guess the the other 51 wins and 46 KO's didn't happen.. Right?? and if they did.. they were all Boring.. right? And Pavlik has never been in a boring one sided fight either.. right??
Give me break please..Comment

Welter I love you man, but your argument is weak at best. They don't fight alike. Sure they use the same essential punches, but the punch output, menacing intentions, body punching (Pavlik lands 2 a round, Wlad, 2 a decade) and willingness to take risk. All favor Pavlik. Wlad was exciting to watch, that was before he hooked up for Emmanuel Steward. And I wouldn't rate Wlad's defense as better than Pavlik's, Kelly to his detriment, lets his defensive short-comings hang out to be exploited by his opponents all the while he is trying to exploit theirs. If Wlad fought like Kelly did, he would either walk over his opponents is 3-7 rounds or he would be ko'd. Kelly doesn't seem to mind taking that risk, Wlad does everything he can to avoid it, like it was death knocking at his door and he wasn't ready to go. Also good sir, I'm not a Klitschko hater. I'm a realist. I am more than happy to call them the two best heavyweights currently fighting (because they are). I am also more than happy to point out that neither have actually become a champion once in their careers (I only take into account linear (real) titles). I also loved the heart that Vitali showed against Lennox (I never liked Lewis much when he was active) and was rooting for him, but the dude lost, legitimately. Like I have said many times, they are two good fighters during an era (post Lewis) of mediocre heavyweights. And because both have generally been unwilling to fight the best of their time, they have been a detriment to the division and boxing, all the while being great humanitarians and role models for how other fighters should conduct themselves and how other humans should act. Thats the unabaited truth about the Klitschkos. And yes, the safety first style that Wlad employs, is boring as *** until he finally lands that right hand. Can't deny that no matter who you are.Comment

Haye's really getting under Klitschko's skin. I can't wait for this fight. The HW division needs a big fight like this one.Comment

Haye brought this upon himself, decapitated heads and running his mouth, now Wlad promises to give him the beating of his life, and i believe he will.Haye is so full of ****, saying he will be the biggest HW of all time, he is going to be really disapointed after the fight. I hope Klitschko breaks his eye sockets, cheek bones and jaw.

Most people found Lewis more entertaining to watch than Wlad, don't take it so personally.
Wlad sometimes freezes up when he's hit hard, a bit like Bruno used to.
Also, Lewis was put down twice in his entire career, Wlad was put down three times in the Peter fight alone.
And Lewis was hit by bombs in several of his fights without going down, and that's not true of Wlad.Last edited by Dave Rado; 04-16-2009, 03:52 PM.Comment

Haye is going to completely destroy Vlad.
Size does not win in boxing... boxing wins in boxing. Vlad has never fought anyone as athletic as Haye. Haye is much faster than Vlad and that will be the biggest advantage. Haye has SPEED and POWER. Those two advantages are bigger advantages than the size advantage Vlad has. Haye is going to completely destroy Vlad. Vlad is good against big, slow opponents that he can size up and take out. He had trouble with Sanders because Sanders had fast hands and rushed him. There was nothing special about Sanders.. he just used speed and bust Vlads ass. Haye has both SPEED, POWER and ATHLETICISM. Vlad's toast.

It was a way of showing Haye that he hasn't got the negotiating clout he thought he had, and as K2 saw it, putting Haye in his place.
Wlad wanted the fight, otherwise he'd just have told Haye to prove himself against some live heavyweights first. But he wanted to make Haye realise who was the boss in the negotiations.Comment

Thinks? Wlad is the overwhelming favourite to win, where on earth did you get that idea from?
Hopes? While two brothers dominate the division there can never be a lineal champion, plus a lot of people find Wlad boring to watch, and find Haye exciting to watch. But most of them very much doubt whether Haye will win. He has a chance though, because of his speed.Last edited by Dave Rado; 04-16-2009, 02:11 PM.Comment
