    Cheers.
    If you look at my posts, I think you can see that I just give my opinion, not talking nonsense. I would never say Wlad is crap for example. I will say his opposition isn't impressive, his style isn't good but that's my opinion. I have a lot of respect for his longevity, because most champions do not last as long as he does. But I don't find him entertaining - I just don't.

      Again that's fair enough.

      We all like boxing and we all might prefer different styles. That's ok. You might prefer how Manchester United plays, I might like Chelsea better They are both great.

        To those of you saying Wlad is cherry picking:


        What's the difference between Wlad and Floyd?

        NO ONE wants to fight Wlad. He deserves te right to defend his title, it's not his fault nobody wants it.

        Floyd? EVERYONE wants/wanted to fight him............. Oh he's fighting on PPV though, his opponents MUST be good! (/sarcasm)


        Sheep.....

          Precisely, and admittedly, that's not always how it comes out. Haha.

          Well, I never liked either of them - I'm a red to the bone. But I get your point. :-)

                There's a huge difference. Wlad likes to keep active, Floyd doesn't. Floyd does fight on PPV and you can't do that 3 times a year. Floyd cherrypicks good opponents, whereas lately Wlad's opponents haven't been good enough.

                  Lol and you believe that? See this is the problem with you guys, you are spoonfed this gibberish and you eat it all up. Tyson Fury went on national TV a month ago pleading Wlad to give him a fight. Why wasn't that offered to him then? Is Pienata or whatever his name is better than a #4 WBC contender? I don't think so. Because Wlad didn't want to fight Fury, Fury had to go somewhere else and now you guys sit there and say he doesn't want to fight. Same with Pulev. He just came out and asked for the fight! two weeks ago! What's the problem? "Probably happening next" - Right. Mormeck, Thompson, Wach, Pianeta.... That is one crappy year and a half.

                  There's a significant difference in ducking and cherry picking. But I wouldn't expect you to know the difference.
                  What the **** has Tyson Fury done that makes him a significantly better opponent than this wop? Fair enough he's possibly marginally better maybe. Surely you can do better when putting up an argument for a better foe.

                    I don't think he gets particular credit for that. I think Lewis' resume speaks for itself. And no champion has ever only fought incredible opposition. Some times they have to fight lower levels, however, Wlad has been doing that a lot recently, especially considering the amount of people fans would rather see him fight. Taking a look at the Thompsons, the Mormecks, Peters, Wachs, Brocks, Rahmans, McClines. Mercers (post prime) he has fought more journeymen and bums than any other reigning champion in recent memory, aside from maybe his brother. Admittedly, this is not only their fault because it is a very very weak division. But it's shocking to think he couldn't have come up with better opposition. For example, when you think of Wlad's biggest fights you would think of Haye, Ibragimov probably which were both bore snore fights. Lewis have had so many career defining fights and highlights that Wlad cannot in his wettest dreams hope to emulate.
                    Lewis has a good resume but his biggest win is still over a shopworn Holyfield. How he would have fared against a prime Holyfield I don't no, but I have no doubt that wladimir would have beat the version Lennox did. Lennox was treated the way wladimir is now while he was active, he had a group of fans who realised what a good fighter they had, a group who vastly over rated him and a group who vastly underrated him. It wasn't untill he retired that people give him the credit he deserved and it will be the same with wladimir. People overlook his 2 wins over Byrd, his win over ruslan chagaev and his win over Brewster. You get Lewis fans on here (like the one who's just been rebanned, and is more than likely DreamFighter) who say Brewster was nearly blind and try to discredit Wlads win, but then **** on about now lewis stopped McCall in a rematch (even though McCall was a crackhead who had a breakdown in the ring)

                      Why do you stop list your bet with me as "paid" when I haven't received anything?

                      Pay up. And don't ever bet against me again if you know what's good for you. I know a bum like David Price when I see one.
