Wladimir Klitschko needs to start jumping on opponents, it's taken him longer to learn than it took Lennox Lewis to learn but he's going to get there and he's going to be even better at KO-ing fighters earlier.
Wlad used to give up his height it hurt him vs Corrie Sanders where Wlad was fighting in a near crouch and it obviously made Corrie's job easier.
I think Wlad has gotten away from clinching too much and I think he's going to use his jab to keep the distance instead of clinching to get out of range. He's going to use the jab as a defensive weapon as well as an offensive one. The left hook of Wlad is what really wobbled Sam Peter and after watching the McCline and Maskaev fights I think hooking off the jab will put an end to any offense Sam Peter can muster.
I think the rematch will be more exciting and there will be a KO in the end.
