Comments Thread For: Photo: W. Klitschko Inks Contract To Face Leapai, 4/26

[Hougigo]

Leapai needs to bum rush K-bro if he wants any remote chance of winning....

[SN!PER]

I never thought I would say this but Deontay Wilder's next opponent is better than Wladimir Klitschko's next opponent.

im not hatin on wlad. my criticism towards him is a sign of respect. i acknowledge him as the best heavyweight. a great boxer. with that stature comes great responsibility to fight best available opposition and to push for the knockout .

" a belt don't make me" - floyd mayweather jr. - one of the greatest of our era.

meanwhile wlad picks up paychecks from german fans who are happy with seeing gay **** in the ring, 2 grown men half naked hugging each other all night.

This quote is coming from a fighter that holds a division hostage by cherry picking one fight a year, I find that somewhat ironic. And now he can hold a second division hostage.

Wladimir Klitschko is the definition of a true world champion. Yet again, Wlad honorably defends his belt against his mandatory challenger. Many fighters would feel they're "too good" to defend a belt against someone like Lepai (who's style is very dangerous) and vacate the belt, not Wlad. The sanctioning bodies determine his mandatory opponents and Wlad, being the ultimate professional he is, has no problems and takes care of business.


I say 3-5 more legit title defenses by Wlad and he is the legit GOAT of the HW division, IMO.

War Wlad

Wladimir wanted to fight Leapai on March 8, but the Australian wanted more time to prepare.

Hopefully Wlad will still have time to fight three times this year. Leapai late April, Pulev in early August, and Fury/Chisora in December.

I'll admit, it's sad that it's been c.9 and a half years since Wlad scored a 1st round win, and almost 7 since a round two stoppage.

*sighs*.

This just shows the insane ATG level Mr. Klitschko is at when boxing fans expect him to blow everybody away within a round during World title fights. Impressive pedigree.
