Holding isn't against the rules. And it's not like VLad's opponents and their expensive trainser don't know Vlad holds. That they haven't figured a way to counteract his holding is more testament to his ability. That said, I'm not a fan of holding at all. I hate when Bernard does it and I hate when Vlad does it.
Well never said I was a fan either nor do I know many fans who are...I mean if that was the case John Ruiz would be PPV headliner :-\
Just was stating that was not like Wlad was doing anything wrong nor was the ref showing favoritism not letting the smaller man wk..Like you said it is part of his style shows his ability to keep his man from getting anything accomplished inside

Hard to say that really, Wladimir Klitschko hasn't really met a dangerous fighter like Corrie Sanders for some years now. It was Corrie Sander's speed and aggression that won him the fight, he literally stormed out in the 1st round and Wladimir Klitschko never had a chance.
I honestly don't think Wladimir Klitschko, could deal with a prime/dangerous Corrie Sanders. And he certainly wouldn't be able to just cruise to victory by using his jab either, his jab wouldn't be as effective against a Southpaw, especially a fast Southpaw like Corrie Sanders.
Remember even Vitali Klitschko had to take some hard shots, from Corrie Sanders before he won. Especially in the 1st round where he was quite badly stunned, Wladimir Klitschko wouldn't of been able to survive that onslaught.
Styles make fights and just because Wladimir Klitschko has improved, mostly due to the fact he fights more cautiously. Doesn't mean he would beat Corrie Sanders, i just can't see Wladimir Klitschko being able to hide behind his jab all night.
Considering Corrie Sanders is a Southpaw, is very quick handed. Plus he has a fair dig aswell.
Gotta disagree with you here pal. I think the new version of Wlad takes Sanders out. Yes Vitali had to take some good shots to get Sanders out but his style lets him take shots anyway, Wlads new one does not.
Also I remember Sanders going the distance with blown up Johnny Nelson when Nelson was coming off a KO defeat to Norbert Ekassi and before Nelson was really any good. Not to mention the fact that he was KO'd by Hasim Rahman too not long before the Wlad fight, I know Rahman could punch and if he caught you, you were gone (just ask Lennox) but he was too good for Sanders. For me with the shots Sanders took, todays Wlad could look really good against him and get a mid round KO!
