    #1 Wladimir doesn't HAVE to keep his guard up, he does it because it's smart

    #2 Wladimir doesn't HAVE to pace himself (very few fighters can go even 6 rounds with him if he lets his hands go) but he paces himself because he's smart

    #3 Wladimir doesn't HAVE to tie up little guys who try to get on the inside, he ties them up because it's the smart thing to do

    #4 Wladimir doesn't HAVE to always throw the jab but hell if you could land 1 punch 80-90% of the time without the chance of someone trying to retaliate then wouldn't you

    Wlad fights SMART and because he fights smart he hasn't lost since the first Lamon Brewster fight and hasn't been knocked down since the Sam Peter fight and I am not sure he has even lost a round since then.

    I have top agree on these things...Wlad fights a smart fight...At times he is boring but shit point is...

    He knows of any weakness he has...He makes sure those are not able to be gotten to by his opp....He takes his man down...He knows what happens if you take too many punches (I mean in general not him personally)...He makes sure he gives out the most offense while absorbing the least in retaliation....

    The only real thing I can say about Wlad bad is he is dull at times but hell he wins doesnt he?

    The man is a complete package...Size, Power, always in shape....If he really let his hands go and was really agressive with the same quality defense guys would last a lot less rounds then they do now...

    I will say though I feel that Wlad even with Manny has thrown a lot less combos then he did before the loss to Sanders...But he toys with opp same as Vitaly....

    There really is no one right now to even offer these guys tough fights...

    I blame the opp rather then them

    That's pretty much all true Daxx. Wlad used to use every punch in his arsenal...if you watch the fight vs Ray Mercer you'll see Wladimir pretty much at his best pre-Manny Steward.

    Right now with Manny he uses the jab and a pawing(at times) left hook and the right cross and that is all. Wlad did have the chance to use some different punches vs Tony Thompson though, he worked the body a little bit.

    When he opens up like that, he starts to look more like his brother.
