That one Klitschko fight, and who was at fault

[TitoFan]

I think the concept of context plays a huge role here.

If Wlad was another type of fighter... one who rarely, if ever, was given to clinching and mauling and leaning.... I could be more sympathetic with the points brought up here. But we all know this is not the case. This is one fight of many with a similar pattern. This one just happens to be one of the worst offenders. Compounded by the fact that we're talking about one of the very few opponents who actually came into the ring with the intention of engaging Wlad and beating him.

Wlad should be ashamed of that fight. He was getting the biggest purse of his career and his performance was awful. Wlad could have beaten Povetkin without all that holding and mauling. It was all Wlad's fault.
