Klitschko vs. Brock - who you got?

[Guest]

How can anyone vote for Brock on points?
When has Wlad EVER been outboxed???

On the topic, I'm surprised no one has gone for a Brock KO yet. I don't think it will happen (Wlad's chin is actually a LOT better than it's given credit, I think a lot is psychological with that guy) but I'm sure someone will pick it.

Brock would have to completely change his style to pull of a win here. Wlad has been fighting his last few fights under better control, so I don't thnk the stamina will be an issue, and Wlad only goes down when hit by monsterous punchers, which Brock isn't.
To win this fight Brock will have to be a slick southpaw body puncher, and I think he will try to win, so he gets KO'd coming in after taking too much punishment from Little Klit's jab early.

i agree with parts of this. i think his stamina (being gassed at the time) and his lack of proper balance are more to blame than his chin. the psychological part also takes some of the blame, but not as much as his stamina and balance.

It still hurts, but let us never forget that Danny Williams's chin ended Vitali's entire career. Fact.

Thank God for it

I caught a bit of Wlad-Peter again the other day, and although it was pretty much "hit and don't get hit" (with a bit of grabbing) there are a number of occasions where he takes flush shots off Peter without being in any real discomfort.

i also noticed that in the early rounds. he took a huge left hook by peter and wlad didnt look like he even flinched.

he did the same with brewster... to a degree.

That's right, I think it was the round before he was double KD'd (or maybe even the same round).

When he got up from the first one he had a look on his face that didn't suggest he was hurt, but more "here we go again..."

As his confidence grows I expect him to drop the worrying propensity for holding that he's lapsed into lately.

Vitali would be unified by now if he didn't retire. There is nobody out there today that could beat him. I still think he'll come back and kick the living **** out of current WBC champ, whoever that might be at the time.
