Rogers, who should Wlad fight to get yor respect? As far as the courts go he was just trying to defend himself from a good Don King screwing. Whats not to like about that. If he didn't lose his ranking he most likely be champion in his first fight.He beat Byrd easily the first time and no dought that is why Byrd has done everything in his power to avoid it again but... Im not ready to slam Byrd quite yet. I just hope it was King not wanting to lose control of the belt that made Byrd run like a little girl. I sure have never seen anything in the Byrd has fought or handled himself in the past to make me think he is anything but full of balls and hard as nails. After getting up from the Ibeabuchi massacre was al I needed to see but he has always been willing to fight bigger stronger opponents. Wlad is a terrible match-up for him,probably the worst out there (much bigger and just as fast)but I still dont believe he is afraid.
And lastly I hope you dont think Vitali was avoiding The Rock for any reason other than legit injuries.. That fight should never have even been made. Its a one sided slaughter. Its time for new blood in the heavies not more DK retreads. Byrd-Toney with Wlad back in with the new impoved Brewster and Vitali well I want to see him fight Toney too.
I dont know i would Rather fight Brewster,Byrd, Ruiz, Toney, or Williamson than damn Peter. Peter might not have great skills but he has a lot of power and the rest of the fighters i mentioned are all garbage. I think this is a dumb move by Wlad, but i give him props for trying
Undoubtedly. I still think Emmanuel will tell Wlad to make Peter respect him early. By that I mean, trade with him for a little bit believe it or not. If he gets caught up trying to ONLY establish the jab, he is a sitting duck. Like when Emmanuel was yelling at Lewis during the Tyson fight......"You better stop ****ing around before you get caught with some ****"Meaning no dilly dallying around, and needs to get in there and take care of business. I think this fight will be impressive to most people who are on the Peter bandwagon, and not so impressive to Wlad fans because he is not on his level.
I don't think this will be the strategy...
Why trade with a power puncher that early in the game?
Although Wlad's chin is still in question, wlad has proven that lately he had gassed out... (Brewster, Williamson)
They (Wlad's camp) would try to conserve Wlad's energy until 4th-5th round and than try to finish Peter in the later rounds (8th)
That would ensure Wlad would still has some gas left in the tank to go for 12 if necessary and also show:
1) He was able to hang on for so long with a power puncher - there goes the answer to his chin (kinda.. that is if Peter lands a few)
2) Progress in his timing and stamina
So IMO the strategy would be.. Start slow, but take control of the fight (yet avoid exchanges)... Jab, Jab.. back out.. move.. etc
Then in mid rounds ATTACK!
Of course Peter's strategy would be to rush Wlad , Brewster vs. Golota style!
ye cooler ur right, wlad is going to fight like he did against castillo except more jabs, jab every chance he gets, a few left hooks, hes not going to thro that much right hands cuz peters money is the left hook, so wlad will jab A LOT, and then when he sees the hooks opening up and peters hurting hell go all out.
ey, anybody. Is Wladimir betta than Vitali? Cuz I rememba back RunMyMouth kept yappin and agreein (wit Bozo) that Vitali is garbage and hasn't done shyt. And yet, he's here utterin IRONIC crap where Wlad is suddenly so great. nyahahahahahaha. If Vitali is so garbage and hasn't done shyt....then look at Wlad, lol!!!!
You gettin yo azz anotha :PWNAGE!
First off....You're a ****ing moron. I have been a Wlad fan as long as I have been a member on this forum. Vitali is a different fighter I hope you know.
Vitali does not equal Wlad you ****** *****.
Which brother has beat the better level of opposition? I think Wlad.
I dont know i would Rather fight Brewster,Byrd, Ruiz, Toney, or Williamson than damn Peter. Peter might not have great skills but he has a lot of power and the rest of the fighters i mentioned are all garbage. I think this is a dumb move by Wlad, but i give him props for trying
This is BULL!
No matter who the Klitschkos fight, it's never good enough!
When Wlad was supposed to fight Byrd, people were calling him pu$$y, that he is fighting someone w/o a punch and how they would love for him to fight someone like Peter, so that Peter can get rid of him once and for all.
Now he is fighting Peter and all of a sudden Peter (while Wlad is the underdog) is too green and you say Wlad should fight Byrd?
He wanted Byrd, Byrd is the one ducking... (It's a Ducking Bird)
1) King will not put him in front of Byrd, Brewster, Ruiz until Wlad is a clear mandatory, or has a belt! Same goes for Toney... Toney has no business with Wlad.. if Toney is to fight a Klitschko, he will try to go for Vitali!
2) All the haters are saying "why should Wlad get a title shot?" HTF do you want him to fight Ruiz, Byrd, Brewster and not fight them???
I don't think this will be the strategy...
Why trade with a power puncher that early in the game?
I just told you why. If you notice......Wlad went all out on Brewster, and almost knocked him out despite running out of gas. He was hesitant to trade with Sanders.....and it cost him. It was like I said in that he was a sitting duck on the outside, feet in cement, almost like he was just waiting to get hit as opposed to doing the hitting. Emmanuel will not allow that. It's do or die, and Peter better get ready for the big man to throw some serious shots.
Steward's words: "Peter won't want anymore after the 2nd round". That won't be due to the jab, trust me.
