See people are buying into this idea that "Wlad will just come out establish the jab and maybe in round 5 finally throw a right cross" when the reality of the situation is that vs Sam Peter a dangerous albeit slower puncher than the WBA "Super" title holder, Wlad threw power punches from the get go, one of the first punches landed was a right cross...a right cross that would end this fight.
I have no doubts that we'll see the WBA "Super" title holder get hurt early on and try to hold on for dear life...a beautiful case of irony since part of the trash talk has been directed at "safety first" and jabbing and holding....Wlad MAY try to carry him, but he may just have a little too much fun beating the shit out of the guy and end it sooner. Plus we've got no idea how the WBA title holder's chin will hold up to Wlad's jab let alone the cross or the hook....if Ruiz can catch you and hurt you then the Magic 8 Ball says "Outlook Bad" for fighting Wladimir a guy with more KO wins (at heavyweight) than his opponent has fights (in total)
