    It ain't Wlad but this is picture of Vitali and Canelo at WBC conference last year. Even tough Canelo is much bigger than Ulises Solis he's still looking like a child.

      high school kids :lol:

      they'd look like toys. any body who spends an entire career below FW is a baby sized guy. ivan calderon would look tiny for a woman. 5 feet tall, and 110 lbs walking around. that's small for a high school girl.

        anyone can stick around as long as they like if they progressively downgrade their opponents.... from fringe fatboy fortysomething contenders down to middling regional fighters down to failed sparring partners down to cab drivers...down to old cab drivers.... it all depends on how low the Klits are prepared to drag the HW title and how stubborn the Klittards are maintaining their stoic following in happily paying to watch this downward spiral.

          Right, that's why his next opponent is none of those, he's an Olympic gold medalist. Cab driver you say?

          Don't worry, Wlad will continue to fight ANYONE and EVERYONE possibility out there who wants to fight him until he retires.

          There's a differenxe between nobody wanting to fight you/ nobody for you to fight and cherry picking.

          Haters gonna hate. But It's okay, we all know you're trolling. Must suck to know no one even takes any of your posts serious.

            he's got a little blond fountain of youth tied up with an engagement. she'll keep him young.

            in wlad we trust. that poor girl must really take 15 inches well, or else she'd be long gone.

                Wlad can stick around till age 45 and still be champ.

                There's the Klitschkos, and then there's everyone else. People can hate it, but thats just how it is.

                  I think he'll stay at the top for another few years yet.

                  His style means he hasn't taken much punishment over the last few years, and he keeps himself in phenomenal shape, so I don't think he's going to fade too quickly. Hopkins is still fighting at 48 due to his safety first style and healthy living, so I imagine Wladimir can stick around for a while yet.

                    not to mention he's a HW. they've always peaked late, and their styles are better suited for aging. they fight at an older man's pace, especially today, because of their size.

                    stand up tall, jab, throw a huge right hand, and then lean on him. it's not like you're asking him to dance around the ring on his toes. stylists who use their legs the least are generally the most suited for fighting beyond 35.

                      fine, you count what has not happened yet, I'll talk about the stone cold facts, what HAS transpired. That is a fight versus Pianeta the failed sparring partner. Who is correct? Me.





                      Cab driver you say?
                      that's a valid projection of this downward trajectory of opponents, yes. Where is the problem with this projection? Are you denying that his opponents have got weaker?

                      Don't worry,
                      that's not an issue, its you that's worried.
