So, so slow. But wlad is an exceptionally good fighter, we should give him his due. Im enjoying watching him.
If Peter ducks real low Wlad has no idea what to do either. Calvin Brock did the same thing, threw to the body from the crouching position and won 2-3 rounds of the first six.
wladimir is very good and hard to beat, but he's also very hard to watch. he does that same clinch/front headlock lewis used to do.
Wlad fights like John Ruiz. He´s just bigger and hits harder with the same one two combination Ruiz used effectively to beat all these talentless fatties.
It's ok. But I miss real fighters who really WANT to be fighting. Who sit on their stool and look like they want to get back off it to get back at the guy. Neither of these guys does. People are soft these days.
Absolutely typical Wlad fare at this point. He lands whenever he can be arsed to throw because his opponent is absolutely shite. Accumulation stoppage absolutely on the cards... MTF
Peter sucks but wlad is pretty to watch, Im enjoying his technical prowess. I'll say again - peter wants a way out. he isn't trying to win anymore, he's trying to present to facade of someone who's trying to win. He should go out and give it his all for one round then quit instead of going thru the motions.
The frustration is that Wlad doesn't even have to throw his jab to fend these cripples off. They are so hapless that they can't even negate him sticking his left hand out in front of them. He does exactly enough to beat these fuckers down, which, honestly, isn't much. MTF
Peter is truly an appalling fighter :: Im enjoying quite a bit of what Wlad has done here but there's no getting away from how bad this fat lummox is.
Wladimir all he has to do is push Peter off and throw the a one two..follow it up with a left hook...and that's all it will take.
Can't criticize Wlad, it's a good performance. But god damn watching this heavyweight pish is depressing. Utterly, utterly desolute.
I mean....we can spend the next week talking about the ins and outs of the fight itself, rounds 1-10. Just some things that caught my attention..... 1. Referee sucked balls. Warning Peter 1000 times......Sam was badly hurt in the 2nd I think off a left hook and the referee jumps in to warn him about a low-blow. Then he gives muddled instructions on the clinching. Then he lets Peter take far too much and never inspected him between rounds or asked about the eye, preferring to fuck with some tape on his glove. :dunno: 2. Manny seems to give instructions......followed by 20 seconds of rapid-fire shite from Vitali, in Russian. Who is giving the fucking orders here....Manny said {Suarez/Hamed} that he plays 2nd fiddle to....nobody. 3. Sky pundits in the studio seem close to tears. 4. Karma is a bitch. Wlad initiated all the holding in 2005...now he was raking Sam with shots and Sam was holding on and spoiling. 5. Fair play to Peter for going out on his shield. I had underestimated the damage which accumulated over the years.....his face is now swelling with less hesitation and his balance is even worse. Outside of that, pretty much everything is academic.
