Two sweaty, buff guys mostly huggin each other...what’s not to like about heavy weight boxing these days!? /s
Someone should have told Klitschko that Jennings was a Russian.
Klitschko is probably the most boring fighter ever. He hasn’t generated an iota of excitement since the Corrie Sanders fight, when Wlad’s glass jaw and lack of defense showed he wasn’t even up to the standards of pro-golfer cum boxer Sanders.
White privilege!
I don’t follow boxing too closely - but with all the overblown hype it’s hard not to hear when a ‘big’ match happens...sometimes I see if I can find an online stream. Can’t remember the last time it was even worth the effort.
Does the other Klitschko rate higher? I don’t recall *any* Klitschko fight I’d call exciting.
Vasily is the other K, and he might be marginally better than Wladimir, but that’s faint praise. I think their main claim to fame is that they are huge, in great shape and both have doctorates. Of course, if Vasily were so good, he’d still be getting fights, but it’s been a while.
Other Klitchko brother is Vitali. He retired from boxing about a year ago and was elected a Mayor of Kyiv.
