He's awkward and unorthodox, takes chances and can throw a nice change up switching to southpaw.
I also doubt that Haymon lets Wilder anywhere near Wlad at this time and will milk Mr Wilder for a year or two. Maybe Jennings will get another shot or even Briggs. I just dont see Wilder going to Europe.

Wlads post fight press gig was interesting in that he seemed to apologize because how he put it, the fight was not as exciting an ending as Pulev. That is quite a statement. You see in that fight he was able to get away with what he did last night but against a guy who was also incapable of any movement at all and stood right in front of him. Somehow knocking a pumpkin off a fence post after grabbing the object on several occasions first is exciting.

Some kind of collective protest needs to be launched against this continuous holding in his fights. Its not even boxing. He double grabbed behind the head more times last night then Ali did in his entire career. This is not some puzzle or boxing style that an opponent has to figure out.
Wilder has a better chance, in my opinion, with a much faster delivery system.
Wlad vs Fury has a big chance to become a hugfest with short, intermittent outbreaks of punching. Hell, let's face it, they'll both be hugfests if the fight happens in Europe.
Protest? I was thinking about that the night of the fight. What if everyone decided they didn't want to fight Wlad? Their excuse? Wlad is allowed to break the rules, so they have no chance of winning, plus they would rather make less money to have a fair chance against other opponents. Would never work because money has every fighters attention, that's what it's about.
Any ideas for a protest about the holding, pushing, and straight arming Wlad is allowed to get away with in every fight.
I read an article about both Klits having a low opinion of Don King for his cheating ways. I wonder what they both think about Wlad's fighting style. They probably wouldn't have much to say, like all cheaters it seems to be OK as long as they benefit.
