Is Wladimir Klitschko the biggest "technical FOULER" in the sport today?

    Klitschko holds at least twice as much as anyone else, he doesn't just hold either, he pushes his opponents heads down and mounts them.

        Yes

        Pov and the viewers were robbed of a boxing match due to Wlads tactics and the corrupt ref

          mayweather never used his elbows in a fight, he uses his forearm. im not saying its less of a foul it just pisses me off when ppl get it wrong. hes clearly not using his elbow, why ppl keep saying he does is beyond me.

          besides, even when he uses his forearm its to keep guys from headbutting him inside. taking the bull by the horns instead of complaining to the ref. if you get fouled trying to foul your opponent you dont have much to complain about imo.

          the wlad situation is different since he uses his illegal grappling to keep opponents from landing legal punches, just a plain foul in other words. still, many great fighters are dirty at times. its a fight after all, it comes with the territory.

            Last night was bad I'll admit that, but usually Wladimir is not thaaat bad IMHO.

            Hopkins gets my vote though, he may be the dirtiest I've ever seen, his problem is that he fakes everything.

                  I can't remember Wlad ever being a clean fighter, at least not in recent years. He has always committed multiple rule infractions in nearly all his fights.

                    vk is a joke to the HW championship, he grabs,pushed neck down, ...i hope the likes of fury/haye or some one else get a crack at his frail chin
                    i think fury will have a go & as limited as he is..the boy will not be clinched etc
                    the day this vk is knocked out will be a great day for BOXING

                      He probably is at the moment, his fight was a terribly boring clinch fest, even worse than the usual.

                      With that said, not only the referee, but also his opponent allowed him to spoil the fight. I wish there were guys like Tony Galento in the current HW division.

                      I am pretty sure Wlad's game plan would have drastically changed after a couple of times he got kneed in the balls .

                      I'm not for dirty fights, but if the referee doesn't do anything, and you want the W, you have to retaliate. Show your opponent that he will get a dose of his own medicine.
