    Wlad showed alot of heart in the peter fight.

    He needs to muster up whatever he has left and go out with a ****.

    Im rooting for Wlad

      I think Wlad had a confidence problem before the Peter fight. However, I think he overcame it in that very fight. Hasn't been done since. Steward helped a lot too by remaining calm in the corner and giving solid instructions. Too many corner guys go crazy which does not usually help the fighter. Wlad has a great chance on April 29th. I think it's a toss up.

        I have it a 50/50 type of fight but I'm slightly leaning toward Joshua.

          Thx for another good fight break-down. Very timely too.

            Next up I'm doing Joshua vs Dilian Whyte. I'll give my thoughts on the fight then.

              Nice breakdown, but you should change one glaring mistake: Wlad won by UD 114-111 across the board; it wasn't a SD - no judge scored it for Peter.

                  Ah, the first fight with Sam Peter. I remember that fight. September 24, 2005

                  A few fights before that he was knocked out by Lamon Brewster.

                  I also remember when Corrie Sanders knocked him out. And before that when Ross Puritty knocked him out.

                  History and Time are not on (41 year old) Klitschko's side. Let's take a look :

                  Rocky Marciano KO's an old Joe Louis (37 years old)

                  Larry Holmes KO's an old Muhammad Ali (38 years old)

                  Mike Tyson KO's an old Larry Holmes (38 years old)

                    I agree but you never know these days. B-hop remained a viable fighter into his late 40 with stategies not to dissimilar from what Wlad does. He's an old man but he's aged very well. Plus Wlad has something B-hop didn't in KO power. That said I'm favoring AJ, but only slightly.
