Comments Thread For: Wladimir Klitschko: Guns Are ****ed, I Look Forward To Shooting

[angkag]

Very curious to see how Wlad does in this fight. After getting KOed all those years ago, he adopted a safety first style that was effective against the smaller guys, which basically meant just about everyone, where he could jab and fall in with a lead punch to avoid counters.

First time he met someone his size where he couldn't do that (Fury), he lost his trigger finger and had no Plan B.

Joshua is the same size as him too, so curious to see how he adjusts, or if he even can after all these years. He's going to have to take risks to land - can he ? His instincts and years of training are to not take risks.

He still has that glass chin he had all those years ago, and he knows it. He couldn't throw against Fury without risk of counter, so he kept his guns at home.

My bet is he can't pull the trigger again - once the trigger finger is gone, it doesn't come back.

I think Wlad unfortunately is going to get totally blown out in this one, 41 is 41, you can look a million bucks but reflexes, punch resistance it all goes down. If he got schooled by Fury then Joshua will do a number on him. But I hope I am wrong!

Klitchcko will not survive the amount of punishment joshua is going to land on him.....to strong , to hungry , to quick

This is why I tell people don't be so quick to call GGG old at 34-35 because fighters from this part of the world are known to have longevity

When Wlad, jabs and grabs his way to a wide points win you'll wonder why you gave AJ a chance in this fight.

5 rounds is the window I give AJ to KO Wlad, after that the old man will be in his rhythm, and will box the ears of Joshua who hasn't shown that he can box his way to victory.

Can you post a link to where you've read this

Based on rumblings I've read that Klitschko is struggling in training camp and not looking good and being 41 years old. I'm going to say Joshua wins by knockout anywhere between 6 and 9 rounds. Klitschko is already talking retirement as well.

You may be right on that one. Even with Wlad's year and a half layoff, I give Joshua all the respect for taking this fight, only having 18 himself. He makes the rest of the division look bad that dodge, duck, dip, dive, and dodge the rest of the best. Wlad may have too much experience for him, though. Be fun to watch!

The HeavyWeight Division still goes thru Klitschko due to the fact that fury succumbed to the pressure of the rematch clause ......the pressure was so intense that fury drowned his sorry @$$ in the devils dandruff

AJ will be in awe of Wlad and nervous he gets clocked for the first 2 rounds. Rounds 3-6 Wlad uses his trademark jab, move, clinch, jab, clinch, jab, clinch to frustrate AJ. Rounds 7-12 AJ is breathing heavy and looking like a spaz. Wlad by decision.
