Yeah it was a mugin but you know what much better than just the insane tying up he did

[Beanflicker]

This is embarrassing. Klitschko is a great fighter and a master tactician but his style is brutal to watch.

[Beanflicker]

They need to get a ref in there who will take points for holding.

[Spicoli]

Pabon rules a KD a slip now, You cannot make this silly shit up

End, Please! He literally just tried to piggy back Povetlin

[Spicoli]

Brunette in the camo short shorts wins round 9. Easily.

[Spicoli]

I'm done with Wlad. Defended him many times, but this is utter unbearable drunken tough man contest garbage.

Is he? I'm not sure he is. He could be, but the way he "fights" relies heavily on illegal tactics that referees just don't punish.

If you can get away with it, why not? All the greats have resorted to nasty tactics at times.

Of course they do, but Wlad bases his entire style around it (perhaps because he is so afraid to get hit). I don't blame him for doing it either, but it leads me to conclude that he is not a great fighter, just a very effective one.

Put him in there with a fighter of equal size and comparable skill who won't let him get away with that shit and lets see what happens.

I would argue that they are one and the same.

Its just a cheap half ass tactic, Wlad looked like a winded wet blanket for three straight rounds. Garbage.

[Mark TKO]

[p4pking]
