Comments Thread For: George Foreman: Klischko Was Afraid To Engage Haye

Don't ask logical questions like that!

What the haters really want is for Wlad to stick his mug out and let Haye smack him over and over until he's on the canvas, so they can say, "See, we told you Wlad is a glass-chinned fraud all along!"

The only way they will truly be happy is if he loses.

What the fans want is to see him pummel an over matched bum afraid to throw more than 1 punch at a time. What we got was another snoozer where Wlad is afraid to go after his opponent because he has no confidence in his beard.

do you have any source on wladimir not wanting to fight sanders or puritty again?
Or are you taking it as if he didn't fight them, he didn't want to? That could be applied to a lot of fighters.

The bottom line is he DIDN'T fight them again. He could have easily gotten a Purrity rematch with the money Ross would have made. And he had a year to get Sanders in the ring before big bro took care of business and he was destroyed by Brewster.

Most fighters would take one or two fights to rebuild after getting ktfo. Rarely do we see someone instantly rematching someone after getting stopped like that.
he had one year to rebuild? Well that proves it. He didn't want it clearly.

He rematched Brewster (with rebuild phase) but was afraid to do so with Sanders. Perfectly logical.

I don't agree with your reasoning at all, and may i suggest you are a bit biased?

What exactly an I biased about? Oh, and Brewster had just come off eye surgery after after a detached retina the fight before.

I think you are being both illogical and unfair. Seems like your making arguments for the sake of arguing.

Brewster came from injury, so? Would that be relevant at all? Happens all the time. He got medically cleared to fight didn't he?

Honest question: do you believe brewster was a better fighter than Wladimir? If you don't, i don't see why you would even put that out there.

The point Im making is Wlad rematched after he lost and had surgery. Lewis went right back after Rahman to prove he was the better man before Rahman could get beat by someone else.

theres loads of ATG safety first fighters whos content winning lopsided decision.
Why should we expect more of Wlad, with his suspect chin?

Fighters have different styles catered to their skills. Not everyone can be a blitzing offensive force.

Bro, we are not talking about Willie Pep here, Wlad is a 6'6"-250lb heavyweight who holds considerable physical advantages over everyone he fights.

Yep George was right.

Rahman and McCall didn't get lucky. It's hilarious how Lewis, who people hated when he was fighting, is now supposed to be superman. Lewis was a lazy **** who was often unfocused and didn't bother to train. If he lost because of that, it wasn't "luck" on the part of the people who beat him. Not at all. They beat him because he is an idiot who thought he had other big things going on, bigger than his boxing career. As his joke of a post-boxing career has proven, he should have been more worried about boxing when he able to do it. He was a terrible boxing commentator and is obviously none too bright. But Rahman and McCall beat Lewis because they were ready to take advantage of his weaknesses, including his inattentiveness to training.

Lennox Lewis's net worth is more than
the combined networth of Klitschkos...


His net worth is also more than the COMBINED
net worth
of the entire 90's HW Class.

I guess LEWIS WASN'T SO ****** AFTER ALL .

YOU ***ING DOG BREATHED ****** .

YOU MISINFORMED FAT WALRUS

Very true Wlad caged up soon as he saw how fast Haye moved, it was intimidating that when he did throw a power punch he missed thus it could leave him open to a counter and he didnt like that. Haye landed more power shots, when it should have been the other way.

Wlad didnt want to fight, he wanted to hold, clinch and run away on his backfoot with the victory

Wlad never wants to get back in the ring with Haye, knowing damn well it's always a dangerous fight, he'll rematch bums who are over 40 as he knows he can win easily without needing to do all that stuff he had to do with Haye.
