Comments Thread For: Klitschko Drops Povetkin Four Times, Wins Decision

[Ogecca MaMa]

What, is there an echo chamer in here with everyone jumping on the hate bandwagon? I haven't seen the fight yet but I bet it wasn't nearly as bad as these hysterical comments suggest.

Credit to Wlad for going into the lion's dan and getting another victory.

yes, that was pretty horrible from Wlad.

I started watching them when I was 6. in 1996. today I can't say im wlad's fan anymore. this was just ****ties performance from him by far. he fought dirty all 12 rounds and Still couldnt knock Sasha out. I hope Wlad will get TOns of hate from all fans thoughout the world. Hope he wont get a contract with HBO again, may be then he will realize that he fights like a 6.7ft b*tch. He could of gain many fans in Moscow, but turned out to be opposite way

How will the Russian press react?

What a horrid fight. Klitschko fights scared to get and just holds every time. Povetkin was just too small and not athletic enough to have a chance. Deontay Wilder IMO is the guy who can beat the champ. I know he's still green and we have yet to find out how chinny he is, but he matches up in size, he's young, very athletic, and we know he has good power...I think Klitschko fights him scared but the difference is he can't keep Wilder off of him by holding all the time...Wilder wins by KO!

I don't mind a guy using his size and tying up his opponent time to time but that was just at a new level! I was becoming a Wlad fan but then he does this ****. The ref was a dead set joke, I'd be surprised if he leaves Russia alive. I was actually hoping that the judges rob Wladamir after that. Justice was not served, huge respect to Povetkin though, he'd crack Haye and anyone else IMO.

So Wladimir hugged, held, pushed, and leaned his way to another successful title defense. If you're American and not rooting for Deontay Wilder to knock this clown cold. You should be castrated on free, prime time TV.

At this point I think even the Ukrainians are hoping to see him get ktfo..at least we know he has a future in olympic style wrestling or MMA.

So another boring fight from wlad,whats new? Thats why im at the zoo and just rading to seeresult,i will get home on time though to watch cotto,he does entertain

[kiDynamite92]

At least Rigo and Floyd avoid taking shots by legal means, Wlad should have been disqualified. I have Wlad P4P #3 as the most boring boxer I've seen this year, just behind Rigo and Floyd.

Wlad did what Ali, Lewis, Johnson and loads of other champions before did-whatever the ref allowed. It was crap to watch and excessive but the ref did take a point, and for my money, Povetkin accepted a lot of those clinches without too much fuss. It's better than eating left hooks.
