Wladimir vs. Peter: Sometimes History Repeats Itself

[!! Mr. Soprano]

The difference betqeen Quarry and Wlad is that Quarry was a hardass with a granite chin and balls of steel who wouldn't flinch if you shot him in the gut with a 12 gauge.

Hey Achilles,

Where you been?

[Kid Achilles]

Around. Enjoying the summer mostly. You'll see a lot more of me now that I'm back at college.

i think wlad will come out and prove everyone who's sayin all the negative stuff bout his chin WRONG

lol...be prepared for bozo no no to start yelling at you again

Was Lennox Lewis counted out against Hasim Rahman? yes

Was Hasim Rahman counted out in the rematch? yes

was mike tyson brutally ko'ed and counted out against buster douglas? yes

has wladamir klitschko ever been counted out? no
has he risen from every career knockdown? yes

so why is his chin is widely criticized when others who have been completely KO'ed continue to get your full respect??

Do yourself a favor, go to Box Rec, and look up:

Ross Purity
Corrie Sanders
Lamon Brewster


I think it's the fact that he's lost to such meidocre opposition that draws most of the critisism.

Add to that he's never rematched any of the guys who beat him, and had his older brother do so in 2 of the 3 instnaces, and it becomes clearer.

Trying to get up after getting knocked down 4 times by Corrie Sanders is admirable. Losing to Sanders, Purity and Brewster is not. Sure these guys are big punchers, but when you contrast it with the HYPE surrounding Wlad before and even now after the reccent losses, and you can see why it's brought up so often.

Ive been to box rec and im very well aware of wlads losses but thanks. james douglas, kevin mcbride and danny williams arent very big names either and i know if tyson wouldve fought wlad instead of kevin mcbride youd have picked tyson by 1st round KO.

as far as the rematches go, a rematch with purity would be pointless and a rematch with sanders would be also, at the time it wouldve made sense but corrie sanders had bigger fish to fry. the bottom line being that none of the guys that beat him were willing to offer one at the time.
