    Klitschko fans were always going to use the "he's shot" excuse, it's easier than facing reality that Wlad finally fought a fighter that had the size/reach and was skilled enough to take away Wlad's jab. These fans know Wlad fights like a pussy and need to be controlling the fight landing jabs before he'll ever take a risk and throw something else. Wlad didn't suddenly lose his fighting ability, Fury removed the most important cog in the machine the thing Wlad's whole style is based around, the jab.

      Klitschko aint shot. you cant tell me that. It was his mindset that failed him that night. If he gets it right fury got something different coming his way

        Better legacy? Jones Jr.
        And Klitschko isn't shot. He's just past-it.

          Any answer other than Roy Jones is laughable.
          You're talking about talent, not legacy. Roy's "legacy" is largely part time policemen.

                Jones was on a totally different level. He's one of the best fighters ever.

                Wlad was a good fighter but for the most part a product of size.

                  What is this a joke?

                  Like haha-funny?

                  Roy has more than one victory that all by itself trumps Wlad's entire body of work

                    They shouldn't be mentioned in the same sentence. One is a legend; the other is an average, one dimensional stiff robot.
