If Wlad's jab is so slow why can't anyone get past it? And Tyson weighed less for the Douglas fight then he did when he knocked out Berbick. When he didn't train he starting pushing 240 see Lewis fight. And I don't get it? Twenty years latter and folks are still making excuses for Tyson. It is simple he got his a$$ kicked get over it.Lol you said jab faster Douglas lol wald's jab is not fast at all.
And to top that mike didn't train for that fight.
And as for his great jab if hate could get past it then Tyson definitely would plus he'd beat the body. And as for wald being as powerfull I don't see it you can't bully mike like that and damn sure don't hit as hard..Comment

Floyd also doesn't KO opponents like Wladimir does. Wladimir is in the heavyweight division and once you get to a certain weight, the difference between size becomes less crucial. Also Floyd has a natural speed advantage; why isn't he penalized for that? Wladimir can't help how strong and tall he is, and Floyd can't help how fast he is! And finally, having a long reach isn't necessarily an advantage, if you don't utilize it correctly it is a hinderance. Short reaches like Tyson are just as effective if they are good enough to implement their style and game.Bro,y ou make no sense.....show me youtube videos of the Klits BEAUTIFULLY ducking punches....I can for Mayweather.....

I never said htey have the same style. . . I just said it is hypocritical to call Wladimir boring and praise Mayweather. both are masters as what they do, and both take a safety first, cerebral approach to the sport. Both get hit about the same. both of their fighting styles deserve equal respect; they are both encompassed in the sweet science.Last edited by UglyPug; 07-02-2011, 09:10 PM.Comment

Dang, this makes a lot of sense.Floyd also doesn't KO opponents like Wladimir does. Wladimir is in the heavyweight division and once you get to a certain weight, the difference between size becomes less crucial.

Whilst I agree that they are safety first fighter...IMO they fight nothing alike.....Floyd uses alot more power punches than Wlad....who primarily uses his jab.....Floyd doesnt win fights on his height/size/reach, but down to skills....a large part of Wlads success is due to his size.....Floyd also doesn't KO opponents like Wladimir does.

While the both use the sweet science...Floyd is way more artisitic.....Wlads highlight reel consists of a few punches that Ko's his opponents, while Floyds highlight reel consists of his shoulder roll, pull counter, lead rights, dodging punches, fighting in the pocket......
I just dont see the same with Wlad....Comment

Floyd has a natural speed advantage over all his opponents? should he be penalized for that? that's not "skill", that's something you are born with. just like wladimir's power and height. also know that short height and reach can be just as much of an advantage. it;s all about how good you are, and if you can UTILIZE it to your advantage, because if you can't, it's going to be a hinderance.Comment

Co-sign. The heavyweight division has always been my least favorite.This fight proved once and for all that the current heavyweight era is the worst/most boring in boxing history. Haye promised to decapitate the Kltit bros while Wlad promised to make him pay. Blah blah blah, Wlad jabbed and jabbed as usual while Haye pawed and ran. The drama surrounding their entrances was more exciting than the fight itself.Comment
