Agree - an apt comparison because they both box and are of similar size. Wlad is like a student of the science, whereas though we know Lewis also learned and improved, it's as if he were in that process discovering what lay inside him as a native sense of what boxing is about. Wladimir does it by the book; Lewis does it more from within, and with a grace and style Klitschko will never achieve.

I think Klitschko could have been more aggressive, but he was being very cautious, needing this win more than wanting to put on a bonecrusher display. He did a superb job of controlling the fight. Amazing work with the jab. Maybe as he gains some confidence he'll also feel more comfortable taking the fight to his opponent in future bouts. But if not, and if he continues to win in this manner, can't take anything away from him on that account.
cautious what? He was on pace to break the compubox all time record for landed jabs.... he beat brewster mercilessly for 6 rounds.. he took it to him vicously what did you all want him to do beat the record x2

If brewster wouldnt have had a granite chin he would have been ko'd in the 3rd.... ive watched the fight three times... and he looks more dominate each time i watch it...

wlad robot? again is that your opinion or do you just hear stuff like that and repeat it because you thikn it makes you look smart..

wlad has a very fluid, beautiful style of boxing... throws crisp, straight pulverizing jabs, and works it into the left hook, he just added his lead straight right, he throws 3 to 5 jab bursts as good as ANY HW EVER, and that leads to the bone crushing straight right, he has great ring generalship... i dont see how anyone that knows about boxing could say he is robotic...
Yea cause he fights in one of the most Terribly untalented Heavyweight era.. The fight lastnite was so brutally boring to watch it was unbearable...

Wlad is a big fish in a small pond and would be forced to fight and get backed up by Lewis, Holyfield, Tyson, Bowe, Foreman. etc Wlad is missing something about him
