Not that he's stupid or that I have anything against AJ, I just can't find a lot to like. He seems like an empty shell. I'll give him some time.
Also, WTF is up with all the "we'll find out" in this video?? You guys can't tell each other, "I'm going to beat you."??

Shows like face off amd gloves are off are supposed to create heat and drama between boxers and these two guys are boring as fuk. Show sucked.
We need ones like Hopkins-Pasquel and wlad-david

Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed the video. I can understand why people find it boring, but for me it was a fascinating psychological game. Something quite different than usual 'I'll knock you out, etc'
but don't be fooled, Wlad was trying to get an edge and IMO he succeeded. AJ is a very likeable guy, he has a deep personality and I think it goes deeper than boxing. He doeant show it all, so people confuse him to not be much. He is eager to learn, to improve and he can put his ego to side - something that's very rare with boxers. Only thing in this one, I dont like he is quite submissive to Wlad, but he might be above 'the game' in which case I admire the kid even more.
I am a long time Wlad's fan, but I will feel bad if AJ looses.

He was very well spoken and seemed much more intelligent than I had given him credit for in the past. I think he was a lot more relaxed in that situation and that's why he was able to show his smarts and personality. In this face off with Klitschko he's a little nervous and in a situation that he's uncomfortable with....That doesn't make him unintelligent and without personality. I'm willing to bet that this is a man of character. He's just not interested in acting like some crazy, drunken goon after the bar closes. I think he would feel ashamed to behave like that.
In a strange kind of way that will make boxers underestimate him in the ring and will be shocked at the transformation into a killer....its worked so far thats all i can say

Funnily enough, straight after this one I watched Wlad-Tyson gloves are off... It is so apparent that wlad underestimated Tyson, both mentally and skill wise. He used the same formula, that wasn't really well prepared for Tyson. tyson came on top with very specific comments and analysis.
This time, Wlad, at least mentally, is in a much better place. He feels much more 'in control'. I remember the comment wlad made just before the rematch that never happened. He said: 'I need to treat tyson as an idiot.' At first, I found this one very strange, but now it makes much more sense.
Tyson is much less predictive, doesn't care how he comes across, says many unsmart things, but as such he is very dangereous for someone as analytical as wlad. I think that was partially what made wlad so uncomfortable in the whole tyson battle. AJ is diametrically opposite and I think that's Wlad's chance.
