Anthony Joshua vs. Wladimir Klitschko II

[El Kabong]

People who know Wlad's career know about these things....Wlad has a very good killer instinct, HOWEVER, he's been guilty of pushing too hard too quickly most specifically vs Purrity and Brewster I. It's got to be difficult as a fighter having been guilty of that, to really KNOW for certain that a guy is about to go, it's a leap of faith and guys can get timid when it comes to doing that especially when they've had it bite them in the ass before.


I think the ONLY issue Wlad had in the Joshua fight is that he hadn't been in a fight for a very long time before such a huge bout. Maybe if Wlad feels sharper, maybe if he has less ring rust (can't tell if he had much, he still looked good in the fight) but that would be the only issue I think that would have been cause for concern. With AJ getting hurt and going down, it's hard to know how he'll answer that question because it's the first time as a pro we've seen him deal with it. AJ did alright, he was certainly hurt but the dude has power to fire back and he controlled himself very well for being hurt.


Hindsight is 20/20 it was a very solid fight and here's hoping the rematch gives us even more entertainment

Wlad beat Pulev so surely he would be a better and harder fight for AJ.

maybe

but ive seen it

although I do think that the wlad pulev could have one either way, I think pukev got some success and was a bit naïve after it

bit of patience it could have been a different result

Pulev didnt' hit hard enough and he didn't move well enough and after all of that tough talk too.....that was a statement KO ending

not so sure about that

first round pulev caught him and then went running in

wlad threw a hail mary (gay American term) and got lucky

fight was over after that, Pulev never recovered
