      he doesnt want too engage,because thats when he becomes vunerable so he uses his height and reach to dominate his opponent,nothing wrong with that,just means a snooze-fest for us fans

        After he dominates with his jab and uses his size how do the fights typically end?

          they end in a KO, approx. 2 rounds after the other guy is completley demoralised and has given up any hope of winning what so ever.

            Of course he generally knocks them out with a big right hand.


            I think part of the reason Wlad is considered "boring" is that he dominates his opponents in the ring.

            When was the last time someone even brought the fight to him, to even make it interesting. They didn't because they couldn't.

                Many of those KOs have been brutal. There have been times he could have gotten guys out of there earlier but there are also times he doesn't waste too much time and sends them home early like in some of the fights I mentioned in the original post. I think if Kelly Pavlik or someone similar put on a Wlad like performance people would not be so quick to call it boring. In my opinion reputation becomes reality in the eyes of a lot of fans.

                  Exactly. Thats another point I tried to make in the first post. He needs somebody to push him and force him out of his comfort zone. Look at the Ray Austin fight. Most fighters don't make him work.

                    i dont think he should change his style, its very successful. And i dont find him as boring as some (still a bit though) my main complaint is he takes too long after the other guy gives up to go for the kill.

                      Another misconception is Pac is god. Actually that was true back then but Pac has surpassed God.
