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

Wlad reminded me of Sangief from Street Fighter II when he grabs you then twist you up in the air for a super pile driver.

I feel sorry for the way Pov was treated, that's gotta be very depressing

[Boxing Goat]

Show me a fight where he hasn't held at least 5 times a round,most fights its at least 10+.

5 times a round is nothing compared to this fight where he threw two shots and held every time.

Like I said before, he usually doesn't fight so afraid like that. He is cautious but not to that extreme. We have either seen a fading Wlad or Povetkin just brought back too many bad memories and forced Wlad to fight differently than normal. That said, if Wlad hadd just threw one more combination when Alexander was hurt instead of pushing him around or down, he would have gotten the KO early in the fight.

Vitali would have wasted Povetkin Adamek style, only sooner.

There are quite a few fighters who use slight rule infractions or all-out fouls in a technical, premeditated manner in order to win fights. Some have criticized Bernard Hopkins, Timothy Bradley and Andre Ward for headbutts, Floyd Mayweather for elbows, Amir Khan for pushing, Ricky Hatton for hugging, Tyson Fury for clawing, Marquez for standing on toes..

After last nights performance against Povetkin, with the countless number of occasions Wladimir leaned on, clinched, held down the head or blatantly pushed Povetkin, is it fair to say Wladimir Klitschko is be the biggest fouler in the sport today? In other words, could it be argued Klitschko is one of the dirtiest fighters in the game?

B-Hop probably matches him.....but at least Hopkins has the excuse that he's 100 years old.

Not sure if B-Hop matches him but he isn't as obvious in his fouling either, there are still elements of doubt in many instances imo..

klits are a weird pair wlad is boring and fights like a bear but will definitely make into the hof and is considered a atg by many

while vitali is exciting and more entertaining to watch but has been popped for steriods has a horrible resume and quit against small a55 chris bryd

Well that depends; is clinching a foul?

According to official CompuClinch© stats, Huggybear Clinchko generated 181 clinches in his latest effort.

So.

Master technician or dirty fighter?

Let your conscience be your guide...

He is allowed to get away with it but his fans love it.

he should have been warned several times in the last fight and a lot more points should have been taken. even being disqualified wouldn't be extreme in this case.

Wlad only did that for one or two fights.

Vitali horrible resume?

I want a horrible 15-2 record in title fights too then!!!
