    Lyle, why are you so defensive when it comes to the Klits? If Haye knocks out Wlad will you give him any credit? Or will you just say it was a lucky punch that IF never landed he would have got his ears boxed off?

    Well Kel as not only a boxing fan but a fan of Wladimir and Vitali I would like for David Haye and Cris Arreola to be PREPARED to fight them because if they aren't #1 It's bad for boxing #2 It does NOTHING for Wladimir or Vitali's legacy's....HOWEVER if Haye and Arreola take their time and get more experience #1 We may have a CLASSIC heavyweight fight #2 Whoever wins will get full respect and #3 It's better for boxing to have guys that fans think deserve a title shot fight rather than letting the commissions decide.

    Also Kel take a look at these guys who Wlad has fought and beaten: Calvin Brock, Sultan Ibragimov, and Sam Peter....Does Wladimir get much credit for beating those guys? Not really, everyone slags off on Brock for whatever reason or another...they always talk about how boring the Sultan fight was (it was boring but that is beside the point)....and Sam Peter the "Most Dangerous Man" in the division at that time fighting a Wladimir Klitschko coming off of 2 big KO losses, Wlad took him to school and all Wlad gets credit for are the knockdowns he suffered and now a couple years later Sam Peter is a joke. The thing is all those guys were undefeated and Wlad whipped all of them, had those guys been better prepared maybe Wlad doesn't win or maybe we have a better fight.


    rjjtszyu, no disrespect to Lennox but his jab wasn't as good....sure it was good but I don't think that was his best punch or his best attribute as a fighter. Lennox is an all-time great but I don't think his jab is as good as Wladimir's. And I think it's pretty juvenile to say Wlad is "frightened to throw anything else"....if he truly was a scared fighter he'd have a lot more than 3 losses on his record after having so many fights. Sure Wlad used to throw everything whenever he wanted to but he fights smarter now and controls the flow of a fight and this allows Wladimir to pace himself and let the KO come to him and sometimes guys like Sultan Ibragimov aren't cooperative with this style and we don't see a good fight but for the most part when Wladimir fights he comes out with a KO win.
