Comments Thread For: Video: Wladimir Klitschko Focused on a Rematch

[joe strong]

I would like to see a rematch.

It would be great to see Wlad rise from adversity again if possible.

Nothing is to be lost anyway (except for the pain of getting beat up) if this is to mark the end of his career should he lose again.

But if he did win it would be in a similar vein to Lewis/Rahman.

The difference in that rematch was Lewis came back from a huge KO. Klitschko landed 18 power shots in 12 rounds against Fury. He clearly had issues with Fury's reach. He couldn't lean back to get out of the way like he did vs smaller opponents. That was a pretty weak performance for a guy who hadn't lost in a decade. A lot of people hated on Fury claiming he ducked Pulev, Price & a few others...He is now the HW champion. Klitschko has the tools to blast out Fury but does he have the heart & desire to make another run? I'm not so sure. He is a father now & he is about to join the 40 club.

Carl Froch said he was envious of Fury last night. Imagine how jealous he'd be if Fury knocks Kitschko out in front of 80,000 people in Wembley.

he did, for a decade...10 Years straight, unbeaten

Oh he did? He beat "elite" level competition?

Way to miss the point.

I got the point...he beat everyone at heavyweight for 10 years....what
more do you want? he didn't duck anyone (minus his brother but I doubt that counts)

he fought all of his mandatory defenses and had every belt minus the WBC (which was held by his brother for more than half the time - 2012)

I was a Klitschko hater in the beginning, but the Manny Steward affect was clear as a night sky in Auorora Borealis, he became an unbeatable robot which no one like to see but did his job and did it effectively

was it his fault if the division was weak? that's up for debate always...or was he just that good?
