Can suck it!
We have an Australian, Alex Leapai, fighting for the heavy weight championship of the world in about months time.

Very unlikely he'll go the distance with Klitschko (undefeated for 10 years) but Leapai's got the power, probably the best overhand right you'll ever see, to stop anyone on his day.
 
So Wlad trains hard for 6 months. Gets great sparring. Has doctors monitor his fitness. Nothing unusual here. Nothing new, no improvement. same old Wlad. Wlad is on the same path that he has been for 20 years...
Alex trains hard for 6 months, loses 20% of his body weight in fat and replaces it with muscle. Gets great sparring for the first time in his life, which is like adding 20 more fights to his resumé in 6 months. Alex has doctors monitor his health, blood, fitness, oxygen levels. All brand new. All improving him. Hugely unusual.
See. Wlad is just the same as he has always been. While Alex is so far better than he has ever been, there is no form guide on him. Alex has just been through a supercharged development period in his career, that no Heavy in history has been through prior to a title fight. No heavyweight has improved just before a fight as much as Alex. The closest one could find would be ....Buster Douglas..or James J Braddock..

Sherman Williams was paid by the Klit camp to act as one of his many sparring partners. The sparring partners were chosen as they could replicate Leapais style. Wlad would then work on his game plan in practice.

Williams was boring in, trying to KO Wlad. He hurt Wlad to the body. Williams was sacked, the reason given that he didn't replicate Leapais style, and that Alex didn't bore in he stood off and throws haymakers... Which is fair enough if the only fight they have seen was Alex most recent and biggest win against the no1 contender Boytsov. Alex actually boxed/punched in that fight. So if they work on Alex from that edition of Alex, they would come to the conclusion Alex doesn't bore in. But he actually does....and does it with extreme violence and world class power...he is the biggest punching heavyweight in the world currently. And he is coming straight at Wlad.

However, Williams has basically given away the blueprint to beat Wlad. It is no secret. Wlad hates pressure, and has a suspect chin. Its just not many can hit it, or avoid his straight, hard punches. He has been KO'd using just those tactics before. But no one has been able to pull it off ever since. Wlad is ripe for the picking.....Read the link below, and what Williams has to say...
