The Klitschko Brothers... Im officially getting on the bandwagon
Did u guys hear about how the Klits helped pay COrrie Sanders funeral expense and on top of that they left alot of money for his wife?
FOr years ive been hearing about all the charity works that the klits are into ..
Are the Klits the most classy men in BOxing?
Re: The Klitschko Brothers... Im officially getting on the bandwagon
Yep...
...as classy as it gets in Boxing.
EDIT:
In the 2000s, I wasn't a fan because the fights weren't exciting, but there comes a point after years of domination in a world sport that you have to give them their respect.
Wladimir has been class all along. Very well spoken individual.
Funny too, terrific little skits they play before the ring entrances.
Some somber stuff here though:

I heard that Wlad is a playboy and it all makes sense now.. NOt only does he kick ass inside the ring, but he has a kind heart.. He has all the traits that attract woman.
A tough guy who is sensitive at the same time.. GIrls love that shit..

Classy and fantastic ambassadors for the sport, their dominance has to be respected. They're just not particularly entertaining, they'd be the complete package otherwise.
Re: The Klitschko Brothers... Im officially getting on the bandwagon
As people you have to give them respect, they sort of just take it.
As boxers I understand what they do works, but I just don't really like it.
They are allowed to fight bum after bum without anyone quizzing them on it.
While their fans who mostly know nothing about boxing believe that Pianeta and others are deserving of the shot they're given.

I agree on Wladimir, but not on Vitali. After a 4 year lay off, Vitali came back and fought Sam Peter, Juan Carlos Gomez followed by Chris Arreola followed by an undefeated Kevin Johnson. At the time, that was a pretty impressive comeback. Vitali doesn't really duck challenges and takes on pretty much anyone regardless of how dangerous an opponent they seem. He also doesn't hold than much and his fights are plenty more entertaining than he is given credit for.
I have alot more respect for Wladimir since the David Haye fight. Bottom line, regardless of how interesting (or lack there of) the fight was, that was a career defining fight for Wlad and he pretty much passed that test without much issue. People give David Haye alot of shit but if you think an athletic heavyweight with fantastic reflexes and speed and one punch knockout power in both hands isn't a dangerous opponent then you don't know boxing.

@CutMeMick You should have gone in their hut and politely asked Wladimir if you could help team her.
Imagine if it was @El Kabong instead of you that was next to them. He would have entered and politely asked Hayden to leave. ;D

The records of Wladimir's opponents starting with Ruslan Chagaev. Sure you can mention the Pianetta's and Mormecks, and yes I understand but he's also fought some very good albeit underrated fighters. Wladimir has been active and is constantly on the lookout for new challenges. Sometimes being an active champion is difficult as fighters aren't prepared to fight you or they need more time to get in shape, or they want to delay the inevitable loss.
Wlad doesn't fight bums because he wants to, he's fought guys that he has completely outclassed because they have been willing to fight him. I would love for more fighters to truly EARN their shots but in today's game everyone clings too tight to that 0 on their record

Is there someone they ducked?
Re: The Klitschko Brothers... Im officially getting on the bandwagon
Only thing I can criticize is Wlad's safety first style.. I know he's fighting smart but that doesn't change the fact that he's boring.. With the size and the tools that he possesses, he could be a killer if he wanted to..
There is nothing wrong with his resume btw. Boxers can only fight the best opponents who are available to them and it's not the Klits fault that the division is so shitty .
Re: The Klitschko Brothers... Im officially getting on the bandwagon
dont really have a problem with the pianetta fight, at the time there wasnt anyone else out there really, wladimir seemed to have it in his tv contract he had to fight around then and he wanted to stay busy, Lokking at the rankings at the time pianeta was just about the only one that made sense... shame he didnt perform too well... worst thing i can say about wladimir is that he does hold back so much I think it has harmed his skills of throwing other forms of punches, body shots and uppercuts and so on.. maybe if he need to fight harder and mix it up then he could but I am not sure I think he over cautiousness has cost him being a definite top 10 all time heavyweight for me.... and as the klitschkos as a pair I think tehy divide up the contendors a bit much to suit themselves but whatever they are both champions and I dont expect them to fight each other(infact i hope they dont)..
I am a big klitschko fan btw, so i will be more than likely biased.
Re: The Klitschko Brothers... Im officially getting on the bandwagon
also if this sanders story is true(about the funeral) then that is just brilliant work from them, I like how they did not make any large statement about it to draw attention to it at all... hats off to them for sure !
Re: The Klitschko Brothers... Im officially getting on the bandwagon
Wlad owned Haye and made him his bitch. I hate him for being this perfect.
