Vitali Klitschko Backpedals to Decision over Chisora

Vitali Klitschko receives a slap from Dereck Chisora at yesterday’s weigh-in

by Trey Pollard

It makes sense that Vitali Klitschko wants to run for office, because he fights like a politician. He’s never flashy, but mechanical; never spontaneous, but methodical; never bold or creative, but measured. He is risk averse, picks battles he’s favored to win, and responds when challenged with stoic control and discipline, plodding forward like an assembly line.

There’s a reason those milquetoast characteristics are so favored by politicians and by Klitschko (44-2): they work. By being again – quite frankly – boring but effective, Klitschko managed to win a steadfast decision Saturday afternoon over his aggressive but unpolished opponent, Dereck Chisora (15-3).

I’m surprised David Haye didn’t use the weather as an excuse. That would have been the obvious choice to me.

We’ll have more on this fight later. But not much. The less said the better.
