When Andre ward fights like that, or hopkins

[DLT]

Ward is not nearly as bad, Hopkins is 50 and worst of all the Klits are way way way bigger than there oponents. You shouldnt fight like that when you have massive advantages in every fight

[SlySlickSmooth]

Wlad clinched EASILY at least 4/5/6 times a round.. not to mention he's big as **** and LITERALLY puts people in headlocks and it's so blatant too.

Oh yeah, he pushed the **** outta Povetkin.

[BafanaBafana]

b-hops never been praised for that....

and ward actually engages on the inside, he doesn't hold.

YES HE DOES, watch any of his fights. I don't really blame him for it, it's natural for fighters to take any advantage they can until they get penalized. It's really the referee's fault for not doing his job.

Wlad, Hop, and Ward all take advantage of dirty tactics and rarely get penalized for it.

[Tylotto]

Just for comparison, if Ward or Bhop were allowed to fight welterweights I seriously doubt they would excessively hold or clinch.

There's no excuse for Wlad to fight the way that he does with all the advantages he has in basically every fight.

[Tay Roc]

I hope Wlad wore deodorant. Cuz povetkin was smelling those pits all night.

excuses, excuses, excuses ... lol

they do same ****

Klits are way way way bigger than there oponents

now it's both Klits lol, apparently Vitaly was there too today

[BIG GUNZ]

This fight today was just ridiculous. I lost respect for Wlad a bit as a fighter after this huge mess today. He should have gotten DQ'd, there's no excuses for that crap for 12 ****ing rounds. Even Smith vs Molina was the better fight to be honest because at least they didn't do this **** for 12 rounds.

[ShoulderRoll]

Not all of those 88 clinches were initiated by Ward. And Andre also did this during that fight:



Are there any similarly eye catching, aesthetically pleasing highlights from today's Wlad fight?

[PureBoxingCEO]

I dont mind watching fights with clinching all over it, but I have to admit that Wladimir got me tired today. Basically, he hugged every 3 seconds per round. Horrible stuff

[-PBP-]

Ward and Hopkins are great inside fighters. Wlad is a great outside fighter that prefers to clinch to avoid fighting inside.

What Wlad did was more like what Alexander was doing against Maidana.
