Comments Thread For: Klitschko: No Age Factor - I Need To Let My Guns Go on Joshua!

[Earl-Hickey]

Strong statements from Vladimir. We will see a rejuvenated version of him and the old Vlad certainly wasn't gunshy. Anybody who followed his career all along knows this.

He can't fight like a 28 year old at the age of 41, after having used a totally different style for over a decade.

If he had that in him he would have used it after going 6-0 down against fury

[alexguiness]

41 is just too old, combine that with 18 months inactivity.

He is not beating Joshua, though it could go to 12 rounds.

Boring fight, boring fighters.

I think prime Klitschko would beat Joshua but age has caught up to him. Not only did we see it in the Fury fight but we saw it in the Jennings fight as well

Vitali was out 4 years and came back to win WBC in 1st fight at 38 years. Wlads an athlete not a fat old bum. His 41yo foot speeds better than AJ still

Anyone who knows me knows I'm not a fan of Wladimir.

But at the same time I don't wanna see him unconscious on the floor at age 41. It really makes me cringe when old people get Ko'd.

All I have is his last fight to go by which was horrible against Fury. At 40 coming off a long layoff where you didn't look good, Klitschko goes to sleep in this fight. Honestly I think this is a cash out fight for Klitschko and I can't blame him he's earned it.

I always doubted and mystified by the Fury-Wlad match. Why would Wlad not unload his most fearful weapons on Fury. May be Joshua vs Wlad will settle that doubt.

[UNBIASED BOXING]

I really hope Hopkins and Klitschko don't get brutally KO'd...

I'm worried for Klitschko in this fight. He should retire after this, as I see him taking damage even if he somehow manages to pull off a qin.

[BluDivision]

I'll go on record and say it right now!

Wlad stops Joshua!!!!

Styles make fights!!! Fury was always wrong for Klitscko!!! Fury was just an absolutely bigger guy! Extreme reach advantage. Wlad NEEDS his jab to launch offense. Fury took that away.

Joshua will not be able to completely take away his jab... Klitschko is seasoned enough to take a shot at this point. Joshua is very inexperienced at the pro level. This is too early for him. Wilder would have been better first!!!

Joshua a boring fighter? Are you serious? Wlad is boring but Joshua is the best thing since sliced bread at heavyweight.
