    Klitschkos are kind of boring... :(

    I don't know, I used to be fans of them for some reason. But I'm watching their older fights now on youtube and realized when I was watching them live it was exciting but now it does look look like paint is drying. Some of their fights remind me of Mayweathers boring kind of fights.

    It's not just wlad though, lennox lewis also had a boring style aswell. It seems the bigger these heavyweights are, the more cautious they fight with using a jab... Idk, I don't like it. Vitali seems to be the more exciting fighter out of the three but in his last 2 fights he has gotten kind of boring too.

    Oh yeah, i completely agree. But they do be knockin fools out though. You gotta give them propers for that. They're KO percentage is like 90%. You just gotta look at it that way i guess.

    I don't even watch them they're so boring. *Yawn*

      I think it would be more exciting if they knocked people out like in the 1rst or 3rd round. They're big guys they can do it, but they also are afraid of getting countered I believe.

        I would probably be a fan if their styles were more interesting. Its hard to be the bigger man against one of the brothers even though this is the HW division so there wont be many fighters out there thatll give them problems. Fights against Haye or Arreola would really benefit their reputation win or lose

          I don't think Lewis was as boring. He was a cautious fighter at times, but he put on some exciting performances.

              Idk about that, even if he does knock Haye out which I believe is what the betting odds are favoring. I believe its on how you do it and how exciting it is. Doing a jab, jab, jab, and knocking haye out isn't exactly exciting at all if it takes like 10 rounds to do it. Who wants to sit their and watch something boring like that? Of course its something cool like a nice highlight but thats about it.

                One either enjoys the chess game aspect, or they don't. Plus, you're in the mood for it or you're not - sometimes I want to see ****in and 1000 punches being thrown, other times I want to see a technical display with accurate jabs aplenty.

                I can always rely on Lennox fights for the latter. Wlad too, but a bit less so (even though, as shocking as it may sound, I actually liked the Ibragimov fight!)

                  That should tell u something, when even thier KO's are boring! LOL. I think its because we have to sit there and endure watching them throw 3000 jabs before the KO comes.
