Yeah it’s true.. that was impressive, and I don’t see anyone avoiding Wlads shots… He really doesn’t have a great challenger out there, but the question is will he still find some way to get KOed… I don’t think Rahman can do it, and there really isn’t anyone else… But people thought Lamon Brewster was such a nobody when he was brought in to fight Wlad, same with Sanders.. It certainly wouldn’t be more shocking if he were to lose to Liakovich or whatever..
the sergei fight would be fun, i think valuev would give him the most trouble, but im guessing if you put valuev down with a headshot he doesnt get up
You got nerve talking about hatin’ Sal as much as you cried after Judah got beat. Vlad still has a glass jaw and is low in the stamina dept.
?
i was bitching about people hatin afetr the judah fight, i never did the hating myself ![]()
Wladimer has already beaten Byrd’s style once.
And the way the picture ends up he could fight Sergei Liakovich if Sergei beats McBride
Or Oleg Maskaev.
Nobody is hating on Wladdy. But I respect Byrd more for taking that fight then I do Wladimer for winning it. There is no heavyweight champion to me. Just a bunch of leather belt holders.
I predict that all of the Wlad haters out there will now hop on the Brock wagon. While I admit, he’s a prospect, I think now we will quickly see a steady stream of people jumping behind him.
I said it a long time ago…no matter what Wlad does, it will never be good enough. If he beats everyone you put in front of him from now until he retires, people will blame the division.
It’s too bad because he has a lot of talent. His power with the right hand tonight was jaw dropping, and after the first round, his jabbing was impressive as well. This guy has really good power and really good speed.
Its so insane that you are crying that not everybody in world gives him credit. Most people thought he would win, so don’t act like you’re a fan of the underdog or something like that.
im not acting like hes an underdog, i think he is great and many think he is nothing
I could see him beating Peter,Brewster,Toney and the caveman looking guy. But I think Briggs could cause a little trouble, But I hope he woulde knock him out too.
Wlad is a modern day George Foreman whithout a chin. he cant change his tempo he fights at the same pace and if you push him he will gas.
Sergie might do him but he gets caught himself.
Imagine this scenario, Wladamir unifys and Sanders comes back to fight him and ends up the unified champ ;D
what does beating byrd prove?
Until he beats brewster or rahamn i wont be impressed
How can you compare him to Foreman? He’s a skilled fighter unlike Foreman, and he doesn’t hit as hard. Thats the worst analogy I’ve ever heard. Let’s compare Roy JOnes Jr. to Nigel Benn next… except they both have weak chins. George was a pressure fighter with hardly any skill, but had a great chin, and even better power. Wlad is way faster, and a much much much better boxer, but he has the chin of a 6 year old or else he would likely be one ofthe top Heavyweights ever.
Sal you said yourself that Byrd had no chance against Wlad. So why should Wlad get a super credit for beating him ???
Nicely put,cc.That’s all I see too.just a bunch of beltholders.
Personally, Wlad and Vitali in particular, personifies all that is wrong in Heavyweight boxing. It is not all their fault, but the reasons are:
Vitali was just a big hulk of a man, if the top Black American athletes had continued in boxing, he would of a been nothing more than fringe contender IMO.
Wlad is just as annoying from the point of view of the fact, he is not without a lot of talent. But ever since Purity he has rarely used it! Instead, he is robotic and predictable, and has been caught out a couple of times, because of that. Wlad could of been a hugely dominate World Champion, the equal of Lennox, at least, but he has failed…
I look at what Heavyweight boxing was in the 70s and 80s, and it makes me shake my head. The personalities and fighters I could identify with, have disappeared, and in their place, have come these huge East Europeans, who lack in ring generalship, and because they do not have English as their first language, they lack the ability to get their personalites across, and thus for the English speaking world, boxing is poorer.
Britkid. If this was the old days Wlad would have been done after Sanders and retired after Brewster ![]()
If it was the ‘Good ol’ days’; Wlad would still be in the Red Army; an amateur getting a silver medal in every Olympics, losing to the next Stevenson or Savon ![]()
He is the exact opposite of robotic and predictable!!He is the smartest heavyweight in the past 15 years!You heard what Byrd said after the fight how he never trained for the kind of fight Wladimir brought to him, and Byrd knows how to adapt to any style.He could easily be better than Lewis and at 30 years old has 49 fights to his credit and is still improving!!Get over Lewis, he is retired like Vitali, give Wladimir his credit! >:mad
