Bet LacedUp is pissed

Fantastic left hook in an entertaining HW fight. Pulev, despite terrible footwork, brought the fight to Wlad and paid dearly. If only Davey boy had taken a risk!

naaa,,,,I don't consider laced a hater. he gives credit when its due. that was a sensational left hook. don't think anyone can deny that

LacedUp will be comforted by the fact that his "other" baby boy Haye survived the 12 rounds without getting hurt.

He can't bare his 2 boys (Haye and Ali) getting into trouble

You're right pal. Haye would have watched that fight and wished that he'd took chances.

Yep. Wlad, with age, is there to be hit. Pulev's footwork, amongst other things, was his undoing.

A lovely left hook to finish. War Wlad!

[LacedUp]

Haha, glad I'm the center of attention.

I felt Wlad's left hook was devastating tonight. In fact, it looked like he could have taken Pulev out with one shot all the way through.

I enjoyed that fight, and give Wlad credit where it's due.

Probably secretly

But outwardly I hope he's realizing that you don't need to constantly compare modern 250 lb heavies to historical 200 pound heavies in order to appreciate both for what they are: Basically completely different divisions.

Watching 2 men that size clash and Pulev get flattened by a punch that would kill/decapitate most of us is what it's all about nowadays.

Interesting comment coming from a guy who's only been here for a month or so......

I don't often enter in H2H conversations because they are fantasy fights and mean nothing. But one can easily see the difference in skills from previous contenders to someone like Pulev. No headmovement and no footmovement. Is that the way to approach one of the hardest punchers of all time? No to me it's not.

So I'll compare era's in terms of skill. but I've never once claimed Wlad was a bum or anything like that. I've always thought he was a good fighter, just not unbeatable.

Exactly. These guys are huge, it's not like even 20 years ago
