    Is Wladimir Klitschko an exciting fighter to watch?

    I think he is probably the most boring boxer of the last ten years,
    How people buy his PPV or buy tickets to his fights are beyond me.

    Boring? In a way. Although watching a Heavyweight perform to the best of his abilities as the reigning champ is always a pleasure to watch.

    He's THE man.

      All he does is jab and clinch. People go on about his KO ratio but their against fighters who wouldn't even be ranked in better divisions and its jab clinch until the later rounds when he accidentally throws a right hand lol at least Hopkins mixes up his punches and lures his opponents in making them make mistakes. Wlad never tries to make a fight and has never had a performance like Hopkins had against Tito, Pavlik, Pascal, Dawson and Glenn Johnson.

        I am always immensely impressed when I watch him fight. He is an amazing athlete. But excitement requires uncertainty of outcome and unfortunately no one can touch him. Naturally his fights have a grim inevitability about them as a result.

                I'm a fan of the straight right. Probably my favorite punch so with thy being said, I usually try to watch fighters that have agood straight right.

                  This is the politically correct answer ^^^

                  The real answer is, yes, he's boring as **** to watch.

                    Absolutely exciting. Sheer dominance and determination.

                    He's not Andre Ward, Hopkins, or Dawson
