Is Wladimir Klitschko an exciting fighter to watch?

[Szef]

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.

Says the guy with Floyd in his avy

[$Bullsfam$]

Absolutely exciting. Sheer dominance and determination.

He's not Andre Ward, Hopkins, or Dawson

Can you tell me what Wlad fight was even remotely close to being as exciting as Hopkins vs Pavlik, Pascal, Trinidad, Glenn Johnson or Andre Wards embarrassment of Carl Froch, or destruction of Chad Dawson?

Hell, even Chad Dawsons fights vs Glenn Johnson 1 & 2 were better then anything I've seen from Wlad in a full 12 round fight.

I guess a HW with 60 wins and 50 +KO's is just plain boring. If Vlad was an American or a Brit, he would be top 2-3 PPV draw, period. He is ATG top 5 HW. Too many people that don't know ****e about the sport criticize the KO Bros because they are so dominant. Floyd is the most dominant boxer of our generation and he is not the most exciting but simply the best of his generation. People want Tyson and he .....was a good HW, not great !!! He was awesome for the sport but nowhere near ATG top 10 HW. He fought bums up until Holyfield then got destroyed. He had some good HW there too and avoided them...BOWE,MOORER,MERCER,MORRISON,FOREMAN,HOLYFIE LD,LEWIS,TUA,ETC.We saw what happened when he did fight Holy and Lewis... Vlad needs this nice young crop of HW to show people how good he really is.

People are ******. How else can you explain why people pay to see floyd run for 12 rounds.

His fights aren't massively entertaining but I wouldn't say they are boring either.......

[cupocity303]

He is exciting if you're a fan of his and rooting for him to do well, which I am.

Always makes it more entertaining than being against someone or just neutral.

People who actually do watch Wlad's fights know that Wlad is not boring at all..

The most of those who complain how boring he is, probably watched only Haye's fight and that one was in the top3 most boring fights of his career.

Wlad is a huge dude, with an amazing speed, distance control and footwork. His jab is probably the best in the game, and that right straight is just a beauty. His power is superb to many previous great ATG HWs.

Last two fights he fought with his hands down during the whole fight.

I really enjoy watching Wlad fights and I don't mind at all if he takes 2-3 more rounds to get a guy out.

Also "exciting" is subjective.

Wladimir is the most athletc boxer ive ever seen, best looking and most intelligent. Throw in his incredible knock out ratio and technique and hes a blessing to watch.

Floyd mayweather is ugly, a thug, barely speak a word of the queens Englush and has a 60 percent ko ratio of cherry picked fighters.

Wlad everytime for me.

[A-Wolf]

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.
