Re: What happened to Wlad?
Lack of proper training. Lack of real ambition. Was not hungry enough that night he lost to Fury. Did not look as though he wanted to be there. No inspiration and he looked like he would rather go running pushing a baby carriage. Fury got into his head and his next training camp should be somewhere like Lou Costello said in one of his movies, "I'll move so far away that it'll cost twenty five dollars just to send a post card. Wlad didn't look hard and he hesitated more than some guy who didn't want to go to his own wedding and many of us can relate to that. Those who take no chances get no rewards.

Define 'most people'
Journalists who other people pay to read their opinions.

Serious Giraffe, I nearly choked on my drink, OK name any serious journalist who has published an ATG heavyweight schedule that has Tyson (Fury that is) in it. Laughable
Re: What happened to Wlad?
Honeyghans win over Curry was tainted by weight problems for Curry. Lloyd went on to be a top fighter.
Was Naples over the hill when John H Stracey beat him.
I think its plain to see Wlad was over the hill , so we wait the next chapter . I am sick of all the talk lets judge the next fight.

Told you so....
Re: What happened to Wlad?
A few factors were in play I believe.
Firstly, he looked old: he looked in in his previous fight too.
Secondly, met an opponent who was bigger, faster & slicker than him. Wladimir has been used to fighting smaller & less skilful men than him & he's nearly always had all the advantages.
Thirdly, in the Fury's he met a fighter & a team of guys who would not allow Wladimir & his crew to intimidate them & dictate terms. The issues with the canvas being too soft & the Fury's threatening to pull out at the last minute if the canvas wasn't stiffened up was genius & really unsettled Wladimir.
