The Truth About Why So Many Americans Hate The Klitschko's...

[knn]

And how does that magically change his chin?

OK, let me get this straight for you:
Ross Puritty had nothing to do with chin but with stamina. That was 11 years ago. Wlad's corner threw the towel. In case you haven't noticed: Wlad doesn't gas anymore.

Lamon Brewster is avenged. The second fight went exactly as the first except that Wlad didn't gas mysteriously the second time around. It was also not a chin issue.

Corrie Sanders was a chin issue but also a headbutt issue. In his entire career Wlad didn't cut from fists, he only cut from headbutts. You can see the headbutt on video and the cut in the post-fight press conference:


This is the only thing that you got against Wlad: 1 chin-TKO loss in 57 fights.

Ali has a RTD loss (which is more shameful than a KOloss, since KOlosses simply happen at heavyweight) in 32 fights (real heavyweight with 200+ opponents).

You are comparing a 28-4 guy (Clay/Ali) with a 54-3 guy (Klitschko). Nobody is interested in Ali's sub-200 opponents (except good-old-time-nostalgists and CLAYtons). Klitschko could line up the same opponents and it would be a proof of how the division sucks.

And let me add 1 more thing regarding your question "And how does that magically change his chin?":

You not only _CAN_ train chin, but all pro-boxers _DO_ train chin.

And how does that magically change his chin?

How much did he pay chuvalo for a chin transplant?

Wow, I've never seen so many excuses for the Klitschkos anywhere else before this. The heavies back in the late 80's and threw the 90's were where it was at. Not because there were more american greats but because it was exciting with great competition. Just about everyone knows the heavyweight div is dead, not because the Klitschkos are dominating but because look at who they are fighting, slow, overweight, underweight no bodies, but that's all that are there. If Arreola beat Vitali and Wlad and everyone else I would still call the heavyweight division dead, I don't give a **** what country is dominating, that has nothing to do with the fact, there's just no one with that elite ability. When the heavyweight div was thriving there were many PPVs and it was a great time. Now you don't even really see a heavyweight fight, and if you do, you hear Emmanuall Stewerd screaming at Wlad because he should be ko'ing these bums in the first couple rounds, instead of almost going the distance. I've heard it time and time again by Atlas, Stewert, Lamply, Roach, Merchant, the list goes on, on how the Klitschkos have no real fighters to push them. There's nothing you guys can say to convince me the Klitschkos are ATG's everyone they're fighting are bums.

The truth is because they are not American #1, boring stiffs #2.

Vitali quitting against Byrd made me not a fan of him.

They are great & effective, but not too exciting.

...and claim so and so from the past would have beaten them, is because (outside of the numerous racists on this message board) they are fully aware that most of their favorite heavyweights from times past would have been utterly destroyed by these giant Ukrainians and it infuriates them to no end. They say the reason that these Russians are dominating is because all the great "American" athletes are in the NFL and NBA, forgetting the fact that until the early 90's, the Russians couldn't participate in the sport of boxing. Low and behold, the Berlin Wall goes down all it takes is 10 years before the Russians take over. The NFL and NBA was just as big in the 80's and 90's and they had great heavyweights according to Americans, but once the Russians take over, all great American heavyweights disappear?

Have you noticed an influx of European basketball players in recent years? Expect that trend to continue, then all we will hear is that all the great American athletes are working as lawyers and doctors now, lol.

Been saying this for years. It's very obvious many americans are sore because they don't dominate the HW division anymore, and won't do it for the foreseeable future. The excuses about NFL and NBA are weak, it would be like europeans saying we don't dominate LW-LHW because our athletes are playing football.

You can also find sore Sampras fans that say Federer plays in a weak era, although there are not many now that Federer has ****d most of Sampras' records

Yes, I'm sure Lennox was quite embarrassed about it.

No, I don't believe you. At least you should try to counter my points. I've seen all of this before in other sports, it's very obvious what's happening here.

[IMDAZED]

Why do people lump the two brothers together? Yes, they're related but so are Arturo and Joe Gatti. They don't fight that similarly, have different resumes...wtf???
