pretty good shape for heavyweights

PINATA looks scared. No hunger in his eyes whatsoever!

He got beat up in sparring and booted out of Wlad's training camp for Thompson. The fact that people will pay to see this shows how clueless a lot of fans are.

Definitely. Especially HW's that big. Wlad looks swoll.

Wow Wlad almost at 250 - That's a tat heavy for him isn't it? He's not six packing as much as he was last time round.

Looks pretty good to me from this angle

[cupocity303]

Well that's possible. But regardless his stomach looks fine to me - it's not six pack but as this is stay busy fight it's understandable.

If he fights Povetkin next I am sure he'll be tip-top.

Lets compare and contrast some pictures from the past:





Here he looks pretty well defined:



At his absolute peak, also considering the pose:

So that's what Pianeta looks like....

And to people saying Wlad is starting to look like Vitali; he just got a haircut and shaved.

[daggum]

fighting a former sparring partner because you know he sucks. it's not like this guy worked his way up and earned a shot. wow this is an epic cherrypick in order for wlad to look "great" because most of his fights are horrific. pianeta dives to the canvas in under 2 rounds.

Pianeta looks like a overblown cruiserweight

It looks pretty consistent to me. Slight variations. I think Wlad customizes himself according to an opponent.

He looked the most ripped against Haye, but he also was lighter than usual. He was expecting a speedy fight.

Against Wach obviously he put a few kg.
The thing about Wlad and Vitali, I would bet they will look pretty good even years after they retire.

Has anyone ever seen a fat Vitali when he was retired. I bet he didn't gain more than a few kilos...

[Mikhnienko]

Isn't Wlad normally coming in around 110 as well? If i'm not mistaken, is 249.1 not his career heaviest?

He was 250lbs against Wach.

This is what boxers in a HW title fight are supposed to look like. Both guys are a credit to the sport unlike last weekend with those two fat slobs.

Why do idiots like this even have to comment?
