Wladimir is open for left hooks to the body

[El Kabong]

Now for the sake of argument, lets say you slip it, close the distance and hes squared up presenting you a shot at that rib cage with your left hook. You move in and you feel his elbow and forearm in the side/back of your neck and he attempts to stiff arm you push your head down throwing you off balance not allowing you to get your shot off. You option is to clinch and avoid being pushed out so he can get leverage with the left or throw punches with no leverage on it.

I remember there was a video posted of Lennox Lewis showing Deontay Wilder how to jaband a comment was made that his hand position is what caused him to get nailed with overhand rights. However I think this was tweaked somewhat by his habit of shutting down distance and clamping on the back of the head/ neck with the outstreched lead hand, as a sort of breach fail-safe.

I guess he used it less often that Wladimir Klitschko as, although nither have any kind of inside game, Lennox did have a reasonable uppercut at his disposal.

Lennox took out Golota and Grant that way if memory serves me.

Wlad should add that uppercut to his arsenal he's got good technique with the rest of his punches I'd only assume that he could train it in. He's strong enough and quick enough to do the move Lennox used.
