    Can we stop pretending Klitschko isnt shot.

    Afraid to pull the trigger - is THE clearest sign a fighter is shot.

    So suddenly he's going to throw punches agaisnt a guy that hits 10x harder than fluffy fury after nearly 2 years out of the ring, at 41 years old?

    riiiiight.

    He's always been hesitant. Remember how Steward had to almost beat on him to go for it against an exhausted Eddie Chambers? Nobody is what they were at 20 at 41,but he's certainly more savvy. Still, we gotta do this now, just incase Joshua wins ain't we?

        Anything less than a KO/TKO from Joshua is a victory for Klitchko at this point.

          he didnt let his hands go because fury is a better boxer than him and wasnt there to be hit or clinched.

            Better boxer? lol, should be name him Sugar Tyson Fury now? lol! I think the height bothered Klitchko, Klitchko sorta looked like Shaq shooting a free throw

              To be fair he couldn't do his usual jab & grab because Fury was moving all over the place and he didn't want to lead because Fury is taller/longer with faster feet and faster hands so could counter.

                there is a big difference between hesitant and not being able to pull the trigger anymore.

                  So what was Klitschko's excuse for his bad performance against Jennings.

                  History and percentages are not on Klitschko's side.
