That is because whether he has been against tough or easy opposition, he almost always goes the distance.He is 47-0 -- a sparkling record -- but has only two knockouts
After nine successful defenses, which included victims such as Angel Manfredy, Diego Corrales, and Jesus Chavez, Mayweather defeated Jose Luis Castillo for the WBC lightweight belt in April of 2002. Due to criticism of the bout being so close and somewhat controversial, Mayweather gave Castillo a rematch and retained his belt with a one-sided decision win

Recap: Tyson Fury vs Christian Hammer - Updates and reaction from heavyweight showdown in London - Mirror Online
That won't be the case for Fury! 10:13 pm Here's Tyson!An Elvis impersonator is in the ring, bellowing out the all-time classic Trouble.Will Fury cause Hammer trouble tonight? 10:18 pm Well this is new...The officials have found a problem with Fury's glove and the start will be delayed.We presume it was sustained on the pads before he made his way to the ring. 10:44 pm Round 6 The fifth was a 10-8 round for Fury, added on to the first four rounds which definitely went in his favour.Hammer comes out of the blocks quick, as he bids to get back into this, but Fury is in complete control.There are signs of Klitschko in his style as he waits and jabs at the perfect moment, with his reach stopping Hammer enjoying any success.His defensive work has certainly improved as he gets the gloves up to block again.Fury connects with another combination as he comes off the ropes as Hammer enjoys little snippets at best
Yes, his fights have been drama-less and many are quick to disparage his skill and ability as a world class fighter and champion, but if he's so terrible, why doesn't one of those fighters qualified to fight him go in there and beat him? The same applies to those who disparage Mayweather because he's not a knockout puncher. Remember this does not include endorsements from the well respected brothers....and some sites only have WK's 2013 earnings BEFORE the Povetkin fight(30 mil)

One example: Jennings has fought 102 rounds in his entire professional career while during just this title reign Klitschko has engaged in 145 championship rounds and 196 during his two title reigns. In the 14 fights since Klitschko has only tightened his grip on the most celebrated prize in boxing: * His current 8 year, 11 month reign is now second on the all-time list behind Joe Louis' 11 year 8 months
Who will be next to fight heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko?
It will depend on the date from RTL, their German television partner.The unfortunate news is that there is no obvious opponent for him to make his 13th defense against. But Klitschko (58-3, 51 KOs overall; 19-2, 16 KOs in world title fights; 12-0, 10 KOs in his current and second title reign) is a dominant champion, and it's good for boxing that he wants to be more active.There are a handful of heavyweights on the rise who aren't quite ready for Klitschko, but who ever really is? It would be more interesting to see some of the newer guys on the scene face him perhaps a tad early than to see another retread opponent in with the champ.The fight at the end of the year could go to Dereck Chisora if he defeats David Haye on Saturday
They were eyes that then focused on his cornerman, and former world champion, Patrizio Oliva, who stood by the turnbuckle waving a white flag of surrender. He missed wildly with looping left-hooks and roundhouse right hands, before two right-hooks to the side of Ruiz' head sent the former champion hurtling towards the ropes

But as the former WBA heavyweight champion paid a surprise visit to the Double Jab boxing club in New Cross, South London, he revealed plans to trade blows again later this year. Manchester's Fury can forget pencilling in any new dates with 34-year-old Haye, however, after the king of trash talk refused point-blank to consider a rearranged fixture
Iron Mike vs the Klitschko brothers
As Mike would have feinted to create an opening, Klitschko would have held at every opportunity before peppering his shorter opponent with that ram-rod jab.

The postponements against Fury and the underwhelming display against Klitschko in Hamburg were poor returns for one of the greatest boxers Britain has produced. The shoulder injury that he thought might end it all was wholly rehabilitated, stronger than ever he says, and at 34 he is ready to resume a career that flowered brilliantly at cruiserweight, but never quite established itself in the heavyweight division.There is a stuff left undone, work to complete, and we are not talking about a meeting with Tyson Fury
FACT! Every boxer is floored when caught off balance or off guard, otherwise they wouldn't be knocked down! lol Frazier was a total, unmissable punching bag and had a piss weak left hook that was good for waking up a sleeping opponent, nothing more. We can't have Wlad vs Lennox to settle it properly but what in the total package of both fighters could otherwise lean the chances of winning in one or the others favour? Is there anything about there observed abilities that would give one an advantage or disadvantage over the other? Both are similarly well rounded
