KLITSCHKO v POVETKIN - HBO/BOXNATION - Saturday Night CHAT THREAD

[armin]

Props to povetkin he came to fight and showed a ton of heart, made a fan of me , wlad should be ashamed for that shitfest can't defend this performance at all uterlly shameful n ridicelous wlad should have had two pts taken by rd 4 or 5 n he may actually have started fighting in stead of hugin n pushin, dam just a stinker by wlad

[Beanflicker]

I don't watch basketball, but was Shaq not a dominant player who won championships?

And regarding Ali, he was long before my time and I have honestly onyl seen a couple of his fights, so I can't fairly comment on him. All I know is that this is not boxing and this is not the way a great fighter handles himself within the ring.

I mean Shaq would be a world boxing champion if all it took was being huge.

I'm with you in the fact that a fight like this is a disgrace to boxing, but I can't act like Wlad is the only guy in the history of boxing to do this shit. This kind of garbage is why people don't give a fuck about HW boxing.

[Master]

That was a dire fight. Wlad was rattled.

[armin]

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

Yeah this one just boggled my mind, pushin tyin for no reason, lands a bunch of clean shit then ties up for no reason at all its insane shit

He has every advantage known and clear size and one of the better jabs in sport today...this ain't jabbing and clinching, this is leading off with tie ups and forcing weight as weapon, Hes a literal backpack

When Wlad BOXES he will clean this guy out and end it

That's what I didn't understand when he boxed n threw punches sasha had no chance, I really think manny would have lost his dam mind in this fight

[Spicoli]

119-104 x3......wow. Thats some shit. Thought Povetkin won 4 rounds, at least.

[ruthless rocco]

worst fight i've ever seen.

Ah, I misunderstood.

Wlad is not the old guy to do it, but his whole style is based around, essentially, cheating, and he does it blatantly and with no consequences. It's incredibly frustrating.

[Violent Demise]

Took no damage. Gets a 17 million dollar check. Goes home and fucks Hayden. Who the fuck wouldn't wanna be Wlad?

[armin]

My dad roots for klitscko, n doesn't mind his style usually, even he turned off somewhere in the middle...

[Mr140]

If refs dqed or took points for holding Ali would lost a lot of fights Wald lost his mentor been champ for a decade and i am not sure he gives a fuck anymore. Not to mention i am not sure how old Wald is but he has got to be getting up there in his years maybe he might call it a day but 20 mill fight is nice though so maybe he sticks around for a while and just stacks up more cash. Hw boxing will take off when there is a am champ again so like in another 20 years or so and i think we are going to be good.

I don't think that's a fair assesment of how he usually fights, hell do shady shit here n there like most other fighters that can get away with it in most his fights but not to this extent in this one he shoulda been dqed or somethin

[SugarBoxing]

If Povetkin just cutted the ring properly instead of chasing Klitchko, he might won some rounds
That was a garbage boxing performance and great stamina show by Povetkin

Great pro boxing skills by Wlad.

Oh wlad definitely don't give a fuck he only cares about the w, and usually its justifiable and I don't mind his style normally, but this one a dq would have been justified it was just blatant, hell he should give mma a shot has a good wrestling base couple that with his boxin n he should be champ

This was undeniably an extreme example, but Wlad holds more than anyone in the sport.
