Wladimir Klitschko - The closest thing to Muhammad Ali

[Technical_Skill]

It's all sweet science with wladdy, so *** the haters.

He's a good boxer, but he has as much in common with Ali, as a 17 year old chinese boy dying of parkinsons.

[Technical_Skill]

Ali was never this good, so stop hating on Wladdy.

To be fair, Ali didnt get brutally taken out by corrie sanders inside 2/3 rounds.

I dont see the comparisions.

[lennon]

I don't understand a lot of the hate on this site towards Wlad, to me he is a world class boxer and the closest thing to Ali I have seen.

Does anyone else see the resemblance?

This is the closest to Ali we have had,

KNN is the worst nut hugger i have ever seen. The sad bastard spends his time looking through stats to try and prove that Wlad is the best ever. "Wlads median opponent is" who gives a ****? You've only got to look at the guy's he's fighting to know that they are nowhere near the quality of past champs opposition. Wlad is a big robotic weak chinned ***** dominating overweight slow plodding bums and will NEVER be considered for the GOAT heavyweight by any boxing fan that doesn't subscribe to playgirl.

Wladimir has about as many similarities with Muhammad Ali as Chagaev does with Mike Tyson.

While I ACTUALLY CHECK THE RECORD Ali fans spend their time on their knees watching black/white footage of Ali. Mumbling sentences like

• "Kids nowadays don't know what good music is"
• "There won't ever be another movie as good as Cassablanca"
• "Liz Taylor is the most beautiful woman of the world"
• "My mom cooks better than your mom"

All these statements have the same quality & validity as "Ali is the greatest and will always be the greatest". Pure childhood delusion, expert indoctrination and circular group dynamics.

"Wlads median opponent is" who gives a ****?

Yup, don't tell me. I know exactly that the last thing Ali-nostalgists will do is to actually CHECK THE RECORD of Ali or to actually watch modern heavies in an UNBIASED manner.

You've only got to look at the guy's he's fighting to know that they are nowhere near the quality of past champs opposition.

Like whom? Featherfist Jimmy Young (34-19)? Or half-blind Frazier? Hmm, let me guess: Bummy Wepner (35-14) or featherfisty cruiser Jimmy Ellis (40-12)? WHERE ARE THE OH-SO-STELLAR OPPONENTS OF MUHAMMAD THAT WLAD COULDN'T BEAT? Come on, make me laugh. But spare me his cruiser wins, and spare me anyone I mention in my sig.

Wlad is a big robotic weak chinned *****

How come that Ali fans are usually Wlad haters? It just takes them a few sentences before they show their real ugly hater face. Al Coholic admitted that he HATES Wladimir Klitschko. Why should we expect anything neutral from a Wlad hater in a Wlad/Ali thread?

and will NEVER be considered for the GOAT heavyweight by any boxing fan

Aha, do we have here another Ali-nostalgists who lives in the past, but can forsee the future? If past time delusion doesn't work then resort to future delusion?

Tim Horton gave me Red Karma.

Tim Horton is a Wlad hater ("There was nothing funnier to me than watching Wlad floundering around like a salmon trying to swim down stream every time Corrie Sanders nailed him"). Haters like him throw around Bad Karma without engaging in discussions. Another proof for my statements.

yes i did. because i take exception that you have the nerve to refer to fighters -- people who risk their lives for a buck on a regular basis -- bums. it shows a total lack of respect especially on a boxing fan forum. go teach crazy on a klitschko fan forum site you sad ****.

[knn]

yes i did. because i

Yes, yes, justify your cowardice.

go teach crazy on a klitschko fan forum site you sad ****.

And now invent some justification why you allow yourself to call me "sad ****". Is it because I called Jimmy Young featherfisty? Or what is your new excuse?

Tim Horton puts Wlad in the Top #3 of his most hated boxers. No wonder he (ab)uses the Karma system to punish everyone who dares to differ.

[Special K]

Watch the big man's footwork, that's what makes him so good - not the jab or long reach. Ali would have a very difficult night with Waldo, and let's be honest at 33 he was washed up and struggling against a midget called Leon Spinks. Wlad is a slow burner with brains AND braun.
