Mmmm... Let's see. Since he picking up his 1st belt (The IBF belt) His record stands as 5 wins 0 loses with 4 by KO/TKO.

Now your saying:
"He's too cautious when he fights and refuses to pull the trigger"
But since capturing a title he's: 5 wins with 4 by KO/TKO

Does that make sense? I think you comment is based off his last performance. But Wladdy should not be judged by 1 bad night. I mean come on. As I said in that thread that wa done after the fight.
Wladdys a Top P4P puncher 50 wins 44 KOs that means 6 guys have ever gone the distance with him. He knows when to pull the trigger, Sultan was an ackward fight for him it happens sometimes and that's that. Hes past that night now and everyone will see in his next fight that hes the best around.

I agree with you here 100%.

I'll go with his last 5 fights. Yes he did win 4 by KO/TKO. With Ray Austin, he blasted him early, my point about him not pulling the trigger doesn't show any proof here. Chris Byrd, I don't remember that fight as clearly, but I personally do feel Vlad could've gotten Byrd out of there earlier. Calvin Brock, also a knockout victory, but could've happened a lot sooner cause I didn't really feel Brock threatened Vlad at all. Lamon Brewster, same as Brock, he wasn't even there to fight but the fight lasted 6 rounds. Sultan Ibragimov may have been ackward but Vlad had him hurt and on the ropes at times and just let him off the hook.

Even though Byrd, Brock, and Brewster were knockouts, I felt Vlad could of ended those fghts sooner than he did. He throws JUST his jab for the beginning of the fight then starts throwing the straight right in the middle rounds. If he let his right hand go early on, those three fights would've ended as early as the Austin fight did. I was already viewing Klitschko as somewhat "gunshy" by the time he fought Ibragimov. But then after the fight, I was so upset with Vlad.

In summation, yes he has been knocking people out, but later than he should. Many may not agree with me, but that's how i personally feel about Vlad.
