    which is why he did the smart thing and jabbed then tied up.......

    if he did it your way he would have lost. a W as a ***** is better than a loss as a man. that **** don't get you much money

      As I said before, playing it save is smart - besides, a win is a win. But I also think that it is no pleasure to watch when a boxer wins who was knocked down three times and scared of getting hit while the brave agressor who wasn't even down once loses.

        LOL...funny quote.

        i didnt see the fight, and therefore have no authority to comment, but i personally think that if tying up the guy is what works, then it works. it wasnt like he was jabbing and grabbing like ruiz. he was landing hooks and straights too.

          But boxing fans say Ruiz is an untalented clubfighter while Klitschko is supposed to be the most talented HW (by many, not me). Besides, he is 6'7''.

            yeah, and its not like every one of his fights is a hug-a-thon. a lot of people had sam peter marked as the second coming of george foreman. i think a lot of boxers would be "playing it safe" against him too.

              What if he holds on against Byrd? It could happen, I wouldn't even be surprised.

                Maybe if you have seen fights than his Sam Peter fight you wouldnt have such crass notions.

                  Have seen about 40 of his fights. Emanuel Stewart might encourage him to hold now, something Fritz Sdunek didn't really do.

                    He encouraged him to hold against a big time power puncher. You think Byrd can dent his chin? That is doubtfull.

                    Thinking Klitchko will clinch in all his fights from now on is like thinking that Hatton will do so.

                      I didn't say he will, just wait and see.
