Comments Thread For: Tyson Fury: Klitschko Let Joshua Off The Hook After Knockdown

[bronx7]

It's like Vlad never trusts his chin afraid to let go even with dead man in front of him

[thack]

If he trained as much as he speaks he'd be 8st underweight ....Tyson we saw the fight now shut up and train!

Joshua let Wlad off the hook in the previous round. Celebrated way too early.

Wlad simply blew his chance to beat Joshua after the knockdown. But does Wlad have a killer instinct? Bad advice between rounds from that commie robot Vitali didn't help either in saying Josh wiill get tired later on. But Wlad is not mentally tough either. more feeble minded and soft.

Vitali's advice was spot on. Joshua did get tired. The only thing was he caught a second wind and landed the right shots at the very end. Simple as that. If Vitali said go for it, Wlad would have gassed out and possibly got stopped worse and earlier.

Tyson Fury let himself off the hook after he punched himself in the face.

Legendary lol!

It's called getting old Tyson Fury. Just keep fighting professionally for another 12-15 years and you will know exactly what I am talking about.

As your career progresses, you are going to lose some of your stamina, speed, timing, accuracy, hand to eye coordination and reflexes also.

Wlad threw dozens of his trademark left hooks tryna stop Joshua, but slipped those punches Mike Tyson style. Watch the hightlights and see how many times Joshua bobbed and weaved around and under those left hooks.

Also, Wlad was programmed by Joshua to keep throwing that left hook. Joshua positioning was top notch when he was gassed. He kept drifting towards Wlad's left side, which had the effect of discouraging Wlad from throwing his right hand and actually inducing the throwing of the left hook, left hook which Joshua clearly trained for throughout training camp.

People like to act like Wlad let Joshua off the hook but that is not the truth at all. Joshua's preparation, ring iq and skills are the reason Wlad failed to knock him out. It's clear as daylight whether you watch the fight or the highlights, the only requirement to see it is that you have objectivity in your analysis and actually know what you're watching.

Read the article where Vitali said he blew the fight for Wlad. Vitali said telling Wlad not to go all out cost Wlad the fight. Vitali said it was bad advcie from him to Wlad.

That doesn't mean it was actually bad advice. That's what good brothers do, try and deflect blame. Wlad tried to get him out of there for a bit but it was clear that Joshua, while tired, still had his faculties and was still sharp enough , even while tired to avoid big shots. Vitali had the best advice. Had Wlad went for it earlier, he may have stopped Joshua but he was guaranteed to stop himself if it didn't work. At least he was in a position to win at the end had he not started getting caught hard in the 12 rd.

I had Wlad winning the fight at the time of stoppage.
