And Campfort got ended a minute a half after I stopped watching it. Could've finished it off earlier. Charlo dropped Campfort in the 2nd, 3rd and then stopped him in the 4th.

Still got DeGale Vs. Bute later on and a good matchup on the undercard in Alvarez Vs. Chilemba.

Yeah I'm sure there was a rematch clause. Fury should delay it, fake an injury or two just like Wlad always does.

First time Wlad fights someone his own size with halfway decent skills and he loses. He couldn't clinch his opponent to death which is what he's done the past 10 years against smaller guys. Without clinching he's nothing! This is why I refused to rank Klitschko in any pound for pound list, he's not very skillful he just takes advantage of the rules by clinching guys and leaning on them like against Povetkin which was one of the worst examples I've ever witnessed. Couldn't do that today against someone bigger who actually could box and move a little.

Wlad's going to get a rematch if he wants it. He brings way too much money to the table and Fury has to believe that he can produce the same result.
Difference is the fight wont be in the middle of the afternoon so i can actually watch it. Im pissed i missed this fight. Look what happens though when he fights someone taller then him. Also the heavyweight division can become a lot more exciting now.

Someone taller than him who is halfway decent.

Wlad beat a couple big walking punching bags, like that caveman Wach, but none of them could actually box. Fury just used basic movement and that completely neutralized Klitschko. It'd be one thing if Fury KOd him with a good shot Klitschko didn't see coming, but he out boxed him over 12 rounds and practically won every round. That's embarrassing.

this bute degale fight has been pretty good

gotta say hbo has better commentators. These dudes on shotime didnt even realize degale was cut till they saw on the corner cam, and then they both shut up for a good 15 seconds

That was surprising. Looked like Amir had him finished in the first too.
That was a bad decision for a stay busy. Granados is chinny but the dude can fight. I thought he beat Brad Solomon, fought Felix Diaz real tough (got dropped twice at the end), fought Frankie Gomez tough, and I'm sure everyone remembers the Cintron fight when everyone clowned him for losing and getting lucky with a draw against a scrub.

Dude's a legit fighter. Definitely shocked that he stopped Imam but Granados is not the dude you pick when you have a guaranteed title shot waiting in the wings. No one really knows who he is and even if you beat him he's going to make you look terrible.

Naw Al Bernstein is by far the best commentator and he is on Showtime. I do like Kellerman and Roy Jones though. The dream team would be Bernstein, Kellerman, Jones, & Mallignaggi. Got Em!!

My dream would be to have the option to turn them off and they would shut the fuck up. Just listen to the ring sounds, the corners and the crowd.

I always thought something like that would be a cool incentive to order ppv online (toggle commentators on/off, switch camera views, go to either corner between rounds, etc).

Wlad was completely apathetic in there, connecting with a mere 52 punches lmao. His worst fight to date. Wlad from the 90's-'04 was entertaining, even in losses. I can see him winning a rematch and retire. Good riddance nevertheless.
I loved the part when Lennox interviewed Vitali after the fight and asked him whether he would consider a comeback. Vitali answered with a smirk on his face that he would only if he(Lennox) would lol

Wlad was entertaining when he was getting knocked out. After his third KO defeat, his brother Vitali told him to retire. This is when Wladimir Klitschko became Grabimir Clinchko, mastering the art of clinching 50 times per round and leaning on opponents neck and shoulders with his 250 pound body, wearing them down. He mastered the art of bending the rules, usually due to pathetic referring favoring the home town hero (out of Germany where he lives) and elsewhere throughout Europe. Excessive clinching is against the rules and in many, many fights he should have been DQd by a competent/non-biased judge. His safety first approach, jab then clinch, is what mainly kept him on top for so long. Of course, it's the opponents job to figure out a gamelan to take that away, like Fury did, but most all of the opponents were either too small or too unskilled or both to do anything about it.
