    Strange not to see vitali walking into the ring with him? Usually together for every fight


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,937 ✭✭✭Cool_CM


    Was he not standing behind him during the anthem?


  • Registered Users Posts: 202 ✭✭getuponthis


    Yep my mistake, Watching it on a dodgy stream. Can't see this lasting too long, wach looks clueless already

    This should have been stopped by now. Man is getting battered.

    God Wach is just awful my god how slow can you be i kinda feel sorry for the guy he really is takeing a beating from wlad i honestly dont see klitschko being beaten within the next 4 years unless he gets KO by a lucky punch


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,351 ✭✭✭djhaxman


    Yet another mismatch. Wach was as tough as they come but just had nothing near the ability to trouble Klitschko.

    These ESPN guys make me sick. Full of anti Klitschko venom. Tim Witherspoon is the worst, like he would have a chance in his prime against the Klitschko's!

    some fairly disgraceful venom from Maloney, saying Wlad is just happy he doesn't have to pay Manny Stewart his 10% anymore. Basically saying he doesn't give a ****.

    Has the balls to say Wlad fights bums and David Price is doing things the right way. If fighting a 45 year old Matt Skelton is "doing things the right way" then boxing is f*cked.

    He spent a good 10 mins basically calling Wach a bum, Bunce then announces that Wach actually beat Price comfortably in the amateurs :D

    Frank Maloney is an utter scumbag with that Manny Steward comment


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,965 ✭✭✭Dick phelan

    Agree that was so disrespectful to say about both Manny and Wlad both of whom have more class in their toes then that scum in his entire body, the way Maloney talks you'd swear Price had beaten world class fighters and not the awful bums he has been beating Price seems like a nice lad but those kinda comments from Frank make me want to see Wlad KO him if they do fight


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,447 ✭✭✭barney4001


    Wach nothing more than a punch bag through the bout,no one about to touch the brothers


  • Registered Users Posts: 54,705 ✭✭✭✭walshb


    I went to bed after 6 rds. Wach was pretty poor I thought. I just wish Wlad had decimated him. Wlad a little too content to just do enough. Wach was tough, but he was there for the taking right from the first bell.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,002 ✭✭✭colly10


    The fight should have been stopped in the 7th or 8th (can't remember which when wlad was hammering him). Bunce and the others were very critical of Wlad even saying Fury or Price would give him a good fight.

    Very hard to listen to commentators criticise the guy saying he was boring and expect him to mix it up more. Wlad has dominated the sport with his style, the aim of boxing is to hit and not get hit, I'm surprised you have guys being paid for their opinion that feel Wlad should work more on the inside.

    He can only beat the guys around him, they were even saying how Booth was holding Haye back and he would have done better without him. I had enough of them after the comments on Manny

    Maloney showed his class last night, actually was shocked there was no apology after the break. Bunce seemed to think they were deep in "cutting edge analysis", i've never heard such nonsense in my life.

    Promoters should not be allowed give their "opinion" as pundits anyway. David Price is a nice lad by all accounts, alot of people want to see him do well but his promoter will bring alot of heat on him now I think.

    Witherspoon was also some goon, he doesn't see enough art in Klitschko's performances. Get that man some crayons :p

    Wach was limited but my god he displayed one of the best chins i've seen in a long time.

    Maloney and Co seem to forget that in order to land on Wlad you have to be willing to take a few bombs yourself. My bet is that despite Price's power, his chin will be shown up the first time Wlad lands even a stiff jab.

    Fury will be KO'd but he'll go down swinging thats for sure.

    Wladimir Klitschko now holds the record for the longest reign in heavyweight boxing history without being floored. He was last floored in 2005 by Samuel Peter. Not bad for a guy who allegedly has a glass chin.

    lol @ the British commentators trying to put Wlad down. Still feeling the pain of the comprehensive beating Wlad gave Haye I see.

    That was a disgusting comment by Maloney.
