    Why Do So Many Mayweather Fans Claim They Hate Wlad Because He Is "Boring"?

    That strikes me as hypocritical. Wlad throws as many punches per round, his knockout ratio is much higher. Wlad rarely moves backwards as much as Floyd. Wlad is a supremely skilled, dominant champion like Floyd is. I wonder, what could it be that makes Wlad and his skills so boring to so many Floyd fans, who find Floyd's "skills" to be so exciting?

    I have to believe that there are factors outside the ring that lead so many Floyd fans to despise Wlad and his brother.

    Floyd is black so his safety first approach is cool and slick, But Wlad is White so his style is considered mechanical and boring.


    It's ****** I know.

      How can you compare Floyd with Wladimir. Most of the times Mayweather is outweighed fight night, JMM being exception. Wladimir is a massive HW yet fights like a scared girl with all the physical advantages possible

        It's because Wlad has a very low concentration of dark brown pigmentation melanin in his skin,

          Mayweather is a true welterweight now. He was the exact same size as Shane Mosley in the ring on fight night. He has grown in his adult years.

          Wlad's size didn't make the difference against McCline, Austin or Thompson, who were Wlad's size.

            Floyd is much smaller than Shane. Shane is much bigger than Floyd. Shane is taller, bigger frame and has longer reach.

            LOL @ Thomspon and Austin. Only 1 pound difference. Wladimir was the same size as these guys.

            Look at when Floyd fought people his size, Hatton,Judah,Gatti,Castillo. All exciting fights.

            McCline is fat so that doesn't really count.

            Floyd has always been the smaller guy. Since 130 to 154

            Wladimir fought like a coward against Sultan Ibragimov

              i've never seen Wlad throw lead right hands or leaping left hooks. i've never seen Wlad really slip punches, roll punches, or even really counter an opponent. i very rarely seen Wlad go to the body and stand in his opponent face despite being way bigger than his opponent. i've never seen Wlad show freakish athletism or cat like reflexes.


              all i see from Wlad is a jab and then a right hand over the top. over and over again!

                Watch Mayweather fight, then watch Wlad fight...they fight NOTHING alike.

                  i like joe calzaghe and i don't mind watching Vitale either. So i doubt the melanin in skin matters much. i don't watch the HW because they suck. i don't criticize the Klitschko for dominating with just a lil bit of skill. i blame the other HW for letting them do it.
