I feel sorry for anyone who is a fan of a jabaholic with no testicular fortitude that is so scared his chin will get checked that he dosent have the gumption to finish guys who are for the taking.
Thats what the Champion of the tradition rich division in Boxing does, he is exciting and finishes fights and creates excitement. Klitschko dosent give the masses a compelling reason to tune in and support the division.
I had stated already that there is nothing wrong with Wlad starting off with the jab and 1-2's. But when its clear after 3 rounds his opponent dosent have answers and has been hurt and soften up its time to step on the gas and look for the finish. Not scratch and sniff with the jab for 3-4 more rounds.
Thats not what a heavyweight champ does, if he was a Welter, Middleweight etc. than that is fine but a guy who goes into 99% of his fight with every advantage including weight, height, reach, power and is safety 1st is a despicable representative for such a historically prestigious division.
he doesnt need to be a showpony to win a fight...he is effective enough at what he does
Why the hell would either klitschko sacrifice a win over looking pretty doing it when they are so good at what they do.
I can understand mayweather getting criticised for fighting on the back foot but at heavyweight its a whole different story. it takes one solid punch for the fight to be over and despite the fact they more often than not represent a heighth, weight advantage over their opponents a 220 pound lump laying a solid shot flash on your chin however average a boxer he is will knock you out cold.
Funny you should say that, because every other heavyweight champ in history thought it was necessary to finish a fighter that was hurt and ready to go:rolleyes:

If Haye can keep moving and boxes a clever fight he could be in with a shout...but I wonder wether he will be able to take the power of the shots he will face!
The one thing he has going for him is the quantity and quality of shots he lands on an opponent,but wether he has enough to finish Vitali I don't know as I don't think Haye has enough to go 12 rounds and needs to stop him!
I'm sitting on the fence until its made;D
When has Haye ever been clever? Dead man walking.
