Wlad is boring as **** but i would say he does have the single greatest weapon in all of boxing.....his jab. he is more dominant with his jab than any other fighter with any other punch. but yea it makes for some boring fights.

Yes it is. Wlad is in the zone now and is clearly the best heavyweight on the planet. His jab punishes fighters and he can put them away with either hand. Nobody in the heavyweight division has a good chance of beating him. It's going to take a special fighter to do it. Haye is the most intriguing with his speed and power but I don't see him winning. Wlad win and win impressively right now, The criticism he recieves reminds me so much of what Lennox Lewis used to get. I blame American media for a lot of it. Many call his style boring, I call it methodical. Hell, Carlos Monzon was boring if you use that logic. On a side note, Wlad would crush Arreola.Comment

Wladimir Klitschko dominated Ruslan Chagaev, every minute of every round. Wlad's torpedo-like jab was on display again, as he hammered Chagaev throughout the bout. Ruslan's corner put an end to his misery and stopped the fight at the end of round 9.
It was another bore-fest of a fight hosted by Wlad. Wladimir Klitschko is probably too skilled for his own good; he dropped Ruslan early in the fight and it seemed he could have stopped Chagaev anytime he wanted, after round 4. But he didn't. In typical Wlad fashion, it was the jab, followed by the right hand, over and over again. Ruslan was a stand-still punching bag made for target practice, yet Wlad didn't seize the initiative.
I now know why HBO refused to put this fight on their network. If HBO had any sense, they would refuse to broadcast any fight which involves Wladimir, minus David Haye.
I am not saying Wladimir Klitschko is devoid of talent; he has a lot of talent. I am saying that he is God-awful boring to watch. Wladimir, with his size, speed and skill, should be destroying heavyweights; getting them out of there early, instead of torturing us with his monotinus one-twos and safety first approach.
If there was one thing I was impressed with tonight, it was Ruslan Chagaev's chin.
Wlad is now the ring champion.
I wonder if David Haye watched tonight's fight? I'm sure he did - and I hope he's feeling guilty and at least 50 percent responsible for subjecting us to the Klitschko-Chagaev fight.
^ that is basically how i would sum up wlad and this fight. i think wlad has so much skill but fights so boring that it leaves fans frustrated.Comment
