Klitschko took that uppercut like a kid that hits his head and looks at you to kinda gauge your reaction to see if he should be crying, but if you just smile at him he's all good.
Amazing sh-t. Honestly got more respect for Klitschko off of this L then in his whole deacade long boring reign vs a lot of bs guys who didn't reallllllllly deserve a title shot.

What do you mean by that? Wlad beat every challenger put in front of him. They were legitimate because they fought their way into that position. There is no one Wlad could of fought and didn't fight unless you count Wilders wbc but there were other better fighters (Povetkin, Pulev) who Wlad beat in that time frame.
Can we please not play the resume game? Can we just accept it as fact that ANYONE who holds all or a bunch of the titles fights a bunch of bs guys that don't deserve a title shot reallllllllly. For example like GGG vs Wade recently that I think everyone would agree, fanboy or nah, isn't a fight that should reallllllllly have been a title defense. And like probably 1/3ish or more of the guys Klitschko fought.
Can we just accept it as fact that the abc groups got bs rankings that don't represent the reality boxing fans & pundits see? This ain't that complicated brother. If you wanna bow down to everything the abc groups think & do fair enough, but if you aren't tired of dumb abc sh^t now you will be real quick cuz abc dumb sh^t is every day logic for those groups.

You know, the contenders never really got any shine because Klitschko brothers held every belt. Imagine if Vitali fought Joshua in 08 and Ko'ed him, and we didn't realize he would be a next great because to them he is just an another top 3 contender and because he has no belt. Only then did talent rise when they finally held a belt when the older brother vacated his to retirement.

You're gonna make me name names & play the resume game huh?
No. I mean cats like Alex Leapai getting a title shot at all. Or do you think Leapai woulda been "the next great" in a pre- or post-Klitschko era?
Lets quit being dummies to abc mandatory's & soft non-legit top ten opponents. All any man can do in boxing is fight the top guys of his day. Klitschko did that & I never said he didn't. But he also fought a f#cking bunch of guys who shouldn't have gotten a chance to look at a title belt let alone fight for it.
Lets not throw on rose colored glasses cuz Klitschko was in one of the best fights of his career last night. That is just one of the realities of the sport under a 4 title belt regime. It softens the opposition you gotta face when the indie top ten doesn't matter as much as the abc ranked top ten.
That straight right steelhammer in the 6th, the uppercut from hell in the 11th and the uppercut/left hook combo for the final knockdown were all hellacious shots
