- BLTV highlights the big heavyweight title fight between Wladimir Klitschko & 'Merciless' Ray Mercer. Both fighters were at different stages of their careers. but one thing they had in common was ruthless finishing ability
- Zábava
Both klitchko brothers were legends true champions and so respectful before and after fights, unlike some modern fighters.🥊🥊
in front of the camera yes ...not so behind it..its a carefully managed image
@@silverkitty2503 *Bandera-friends!*
@@silverkitty2503their real personality, their life behind the camera does not interest me, he shows respect in front of the camera without disrespect, today this shitty trash talk becomes nonsense
They were like fucking robots! Not exciting fights.
Mercer was great, not just as a fighter but also his statements after the fight. True sportsmanship
Klitchko was so sharp.. damn. So much pop in his punches
Ray was past his prime relax
Кличко поставил раком Поветкина в москве на ринге
@@FknClownShoes he beat more than just Ray lol
@@stylicho WHO?
Botha,Chambers,Rahman,and briggs..Oh wow watch out.
Fast hands
mercer was an absolute beast ,strong as an ox but past his prime for this fight.
The only good guys clinchko beat were already past their primes
Yea but He was Floored By a great punch , and Stopped by a Great Younger Champion
@@kevinmunday6263 agree
Il aurait eu sont age ça aurait été une autre histoire trop d'années d'écart ça y fait beaucoup s'est plus la même vue et rapidité respect à Mercers
doesnt matter, mercer was a dirty fighter. look what he did to morrison; he deserved to have his license revoked.
I miss HBO boxing, and hearing Jim Lampley call fights 😢
Never stop these videos
he’s gonna stop and then create a new channel in a couple months 😢
Agreed!!!!❤❤❤❤
Imagine if Wlad had Vitali's chin. Jesus.
They both suck
and the muscle stamina
@@Sara_Sky_Suttonthank you for this elaboration. Really enjoyed reading your comment 🙏🏽
@@Sara_Sky_Sutton I knew something weird happened after rd. 4 he looked exhausted.
Give Wlad vitalis chin stamina and slick intelligent skills with his explosive speed and power and you would have the most dominant heavyweight in history
I was desperate for ref to step in, 41 year old Mercer was getting crucified by a 26 year young Klitchko. Sad to see a legendary boxer of Mercer’s class needlessly soaking up brain damaging punishment at that age. Man must’ve desperately needed that pay check. Uncomfortable viewing.
He was send back to the ghetto.
If he dies…..he dies
@@Chorbzz yeah I get the Rocky joke, but it’s true his corner left him to die. Mercer took a left hook that momentarily paralysed him flat out on the floor early on. He clearly lost his punch resistance, then still continued as a punch bag till the 6th, disgraceful.
Same with Mercer vs. Morrison. As Mercer said, out him to sleep, woke him up. The punches kept him standing.
He showed no mercy or concern for Morrisons health. Karma.
Dropping bombs and the dude was still standing!! BEAST!!!
Klitschko 10 years at the top, a true monster, a legend.
Bruh who'd he fight in there prime foh.
He fought nothing but bums for 10 yrs
@@FknClownShoeshe fought everyone literally and all the best mercer was just the tune up fight
@@omega-manthe8346 Mercer was washed up dude relax.
No he didn't fight everybody foh.
@@FknClownShoes Tyson excuses coming lol
I'm a simple man, I see a klitschko video I click.
Liar liar pants on fire. Come on bro you know you watched. 😂😂
You like boring, to each his own.
@@tbauer2521good point, klitschko was a great boxer, not a circus clown showman. You may want to check out pro wrestling.
@@furthereast6775 wlad was a pro wrestler 😂. Just watch him against povetkin.
Except that aj beating huh lol
Klitschko quietly was champion for ten years
Por quase 11 anos.
His Brother, Vitali was the two time heavyweight champion.
In a easy era foh
The Brothers Klitschko were tremendous Boxers and awesome Athletes. Respect to them always !👍
I hope they are safe in Ukraine. The Butcher Putin will eventually pay for his horrible deeds against the humble but proud Ukraine!! 💪
@@joegoodman9232😂
Mercer is historically underrated, one of the best chins in boxing history and had excellent skills. AND he said Tommy Morrison hit harder than anyone he ever fought.
Steroids
Wladimir Klitschko was always a class act. If you faced "Merciless" Ray Mercer and not taking him seriously, that could end badly and Wlad remembered his great misstake in similar tough Ross "The Boss" Puritty so with a seasoned Ray Mercer, Wladimir would be sharp and not careless. Mercer was since Dec. 1996 undefeated in the ring (7-0-0, KO's 6) and had his last fight just 4 months prior this WBO world title fight so Mercer had no ring rust to talk about. Sure past his prime but still one last "hurra".
"I got beat fair and square. You can't win them all. I beat the (hell) out of many people myself" - Ray Mercer post fight.
Mercer ko tomotoe cans on his comeback and was 39 years old when he fought Wlad come on now
@@JayYo21 Yes it was not elite opponents but Mercer still showed he had one good fight in him left despite his advanced age.
He looks really old and out of shape here, even older than 39
@@starwarsroo2448 Actually for being Mercer, he was in decent condition considering he often came in much heavier. Here he was at the "limit" of acceptble for a world title fight.
@@WarioSaysSo he was still old as f fighting someone 15 years younger than him
My God !! i never got into Klitscko but he is fast ,powerful and very active with great cardio. ll have to go check him out
Thanks for these digestible videos. Really enjoy them
BLTV picks up the action.... in round one
DING!!
LOVE IT
Wlad's left hook is so weird and underrated, never seen anyone else throw it like that
how many people can say they have a phd and had the longest heavyweight reign of all time. the klitschkos made everyone look mediocre
That’s because their competition was mostly mediocre 😂
@@BooBooDaFoo330 They made them look Mediocre. Only Lennox and Vitali would stand a chance against prime Wlad. And the Lennox fight wouldn't make sense because both were trained by Steward in their prime. Klitschko had the best jab in history, the best footwork in heavyweight history, the best lead left hook in history , the most athleticism and the most power in heavyweight history - the words of Emanuel Steward. Steward said his biggest flaw was not letting his hands go. He supposedly only fought at 60% power when Steward was training him. You can see Steward screaming at Klitschko to let his hands go in the Chambers fight. His chin was fine. He ate an uppercut from AJ that would flatline most. His biggest flaw was mentality, and Steward took that flaw away when he was with him. If Steward hadn't died he'd probably still be champion.
@@Anonymous-xl9pq it’s a shame Wlad didn’t go undisputed. Wilder ducked him hard 😂
Best heavyweights in history.
The Klitchko brothers were.
Best videos on youtube. You the man BLTV!
That was brutal. All I kept thinking about was CTE
That Mercer KO of Morrison was possibly nastier than Cooneys KO of Norton.
I think that's the most sickening KO I've ever seen.
@@beefcake1973aus
My vote goes to Mike Tyson vs. Marvis Frazier.
Foreman’s KO of Cooney ?
Somebody should have ko'd that ref,that was complete negligence of that "ref",the fighter is supposed to b protected in a fight,morrison took way to many needless punches,and mercer should have known better,that was infuriating to watch somebody being beaten when putting up no defense at all,and mercer loved it
@@youdontsay2181 Karma can be a bitch.
-Mercer NEVER had a “granite chin”, to take a good punch one needs good strong legs and neck muscles.
-Mercer beat a green inexperienced Tommy Morrison. His highlights were a very game effort against Lennox Lewis and Holyfield.
-He literally threw a fit, a temper tantrum when he lost to Holyfield. Go back and watch the decision. Mercer ran across the ring like a child who didn’t get his way.
-He received Karma for what he did to Morrison (by continuously hitting a knocked out man EVEN after the ref put his hands on Mercer to stop the fight), when Shannon Briggs beat him almost exactly the way Mercer did Morrison. Caught him on the ropes and pummeled him until Mercer collapsed. Lol, that’s what you call Karma, Ray.
-Lastly, he made the mistake of calling Klitchsco the “European Tommy Morrison” and well… let’s just say, Mercer are those words by getting literally rag dolled in there against Klitchsco.
Did Ray Mercer take your mum out for a nice seafood dinner and never call her again? My mans under your thin skin lmao
@@Tron_Funkin_Blow Nah, I Think he is just a Douchbag for what he did to Morrinson, What Goes Around Comes Around.......
is that lotr music I can hear lol
Minas Morgul theme. I chuckled not gonna lie
Last time it was crysis 3 music lol
I heard some ride of the Rohirrim in there amongst others lol
Y’all must be new to bltv lol
I thought it sounded like the main menu music of the N64 lotr game at one point. 😂
Early Wlad was an exciting glass cannon who threw heaps of varied punches. Late Wlad was jab, jab right cross, clinch.
Ray Mercer was the most underrated boxer of the golden age of ‘90s heavyweight boxing. Ray was a special fighter ❤
Hilarious thumbnail, great video. As usual.
He was 41 and hadn't fought for 6 years.
He was 39 and had fought four journeymen before VK. He had also fought in 1998 before getting hepatitis b.. so def not six years. Agree he was well past his prime but dates and facts are important. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_Mercer
Born on my birthday 1961. Fought Klitschko 2002 . Do the math as they say and subtract 1961 from 2002 and you will find 41. Don'tknow where I got the 6 years bit from, sorry.
Mercer is amazing, but this was not the Mercer who fought Morrison. His body is clearly aged beyond his prime in this fight.
Another Jewel from the past
Ross Purrity wasn't a golfer that was Corrie Sanders
Loving this content.
Two class individuals and great fighters.
The Brothers made us feel seen and having worth when everything and everyone were just struggling to build ourself up and come to our senses after being enslaved for so long and not knowing how to live and how to properly build a just and functioning state (that was ridden with russia's agents from up to bottom). Vitaly is a mayor of our capitol of Kyiv for at least around 5 years now. They were our heroes and will forever be, but now in boxing Usyk plays that dear role for us, not to mention all other great athletes, but never did majority of us imagine there will be a time when our greatest heroes would be soldiers defending our existence. Thank you for making this video, friend 🤝
Ray Mercer was Always a Humble Champion With a Great Chin and Heart of a Lion. Love you Ray. God Bless You.
Very sad that Ray Mercer was very past his prime in that fight
He wouldve still lost
Very True..way past his prime. If Mercer was in his prime, WK would have many problems...
@alkispanou3781 it always seems to be the answer for everyone, apparently every older boxer is better, people never appreciate what it is in a moment until it's gone and every new generational fighter they say the old one is better because of the dislike that's why we have to be content and be appreciative of the moment because when that moment passes you'll look back and keep saying the same s*** over and over again
@@yessirrr5182 very true. Which is exactly what they say about Wlad after kó to joshua. He was already past his prime otherwise héd have demolish joshua 😂😂😂
@@yessirrr5182 Do you think Wladimir would have beaten Joshua in his prime. or did he lose because he was 41,
Loved it ❤
Wlad was good but VITALI WAS BETTER
In what way? Vitali had a better chin. That’s about it. Wlad hit harder, and was far more skilled overall. Vitali was a brawler with a decent engine (for his size) and a granite chin. Look what Chris Byrd did to Vitali.
@@LobotomyMeatyou're absolutely 100% wrong. Yes Vitali had a better chin, but he was anything but a brawler. He was much more of a skilled and well rounded fighter compared to Wlad. Wlad was just more athletic and less robotic. He could only fight one way, moving straight forward and walking down his opponent. When that didn't work, he would lose. Vitali could lead, box and counter with the best of him. Just watch the Lewis fight and how he constantly made Lewis miss and immediately counter. No one had ever done that to Lewis. Look how badly Wlad struggled with the brawler Peter, so much so he never rematched him even when Peter was the heavyweight champ. Vitali fought him after a 4.5 year layoff and absolutely pummeled Peter. Something Wlad couldn't do until several years later after Peter was completely shot.
Vitali was never behind on points after the 2nd round. He retired due to injury against Byrd and Lewis. Vitali was only beaten by injuries. He was never on the canvas during His whole career either. He was leading Byrd and Lewis before the injuries.@@LobotomyMeat
Vitali's potential was better. But Wlad's record (actual) was better. Although it was ultimately injuries, I wonder if Vitali temporarily stepping away was to open the door for a possible undisputed path for his little bro, Wlad. I think Vitali's ambition might have been a little compromised knowing the ultimate goal could never be a possibility if they were both active at the same time.
@@calvinmay35 obviously Wlad had the longer reign, but Vitali definitely faced the better opposition. Wlad would tend to go after the weaker parts of the division. Lewis tops anyone Wlad ever faced, but remember he didn't want to rematch Sanders, Vitali did and destroyed him. He also had the chance to rematch Peter but didn't, even when Peter had the other title Wlad was missing, the WBC. Vitali after a 4.5 year layoff ended up facing him without a tuneup and still destroyed him. Wlad had the opportunity to face Chisora and pulled out. Vitali ended up facing and dominating him. Then dont forget Wlad wanted nothing to do with the undefeated challenger Arreola. Vitali never screwed around with facing bums and no hopers
This was a old Mercer here. He wasn't the machine he was earlier in his career. Good win though but not the same fighter.
Referee Randy Newman was like "Mercer, you got a friend in me" and called the fight.
Two true warriors respect 👊🏻🥊👊🏿
The ending was just funny as hell 😂😂🤣🤣
LotR music?
One thing I will admire about Klitschko is that he wasn't arrogant or trash-talking. I honestly enjoy those kinds of fighters more.
just look at those one two combinations their like freak trains, golly
Young Mercer beats him.
No chance. Too slow even at His peak.
Naaahhh!!
How do you tell after an ass whuppin like that?
@@jimbyrne2328yes chance, 💯 stops him.
Don't be silly.. Mercer is average.
BLTV is the undisputed goat of boxing analysis videos
It’s easy to show zero respect against a 41-year old boxer, far from his prime
he was 39 but yes.. point taken..
Wow klitchco was a monster love to the klitchco bros
Love to see him to this to a prime Mercer. No way pal.
Dream on
Hey man glad to see you again. Thought you were long gone
I appreciate your narration and dialogue, "BLTV Highlights", Informative and entertaining.
Great video.
Wlad got more media attention than his older brother Vitali, but the latter was the better fighter of the two. Mercer, well to be honest, I always thought he was overrated. He got outboxed by a 42 year old Larry Holmes and had other losses to veteran fighters and even journeymen.. His best performances was against Lennox Lewis and Tommy Morrison. I actually thought he deserved a draw against Lewis but that's how boxing goes. Regarding his fight against Wlad, well it was more of an execution than a fight. Mercer clearly had nothing left but a jab and a good chin. However, in his defence, he was 42 years old when he fought Wlad, which was about six years past his prime. At 42, Mercer was a sitting duck for a sharp- shooter like Wlad. Had Wlad fought Mercer anywhere before 1999 instead of 2002, Mercer might have had a better chance. Forty two is old for a boxer!
In no way is Mercer overrated. Had he been born a decade+ later, he'd be called champ right now.
@@calvinmay35 Maybe, maybe not!
To do this against a prime Ray Mercer shows how special and brilliant Wladimir had become before his prime years even came.
Prime? He was nearly 40.
He was 41, and he had alot of wars, which ages you in boxing.
darn. when wlad balls out and let his hands go boy are they snappy and powerful. insane how mercer stood up after all those pinches.
Classic Boxing Legends TV video. What an absolute masterpiece, good to have the best fighting channel uploading regularly.
Klitschko is my boy, fellow Ukrainian but Mercer was a shell of himself. If you want to watch a fight - watch him beat up Lennox Lewis
young wlad was such a beast to watch, he slowed down in his older years but still had a sharp boxers mind that carried him to defend his title more times than anyone.
Jeeze that ref sure did Tommy Morrison wrong. Seeing him caught in the ropes getting lit up like that is just sad.
1:33 bro got the shades on 😂
Dr. Steelhammer's lead left hook: wow.
I knew did guy..was stationed with him...talked with the sarge...rooted for the fighter...WOW how the years go by....!!!
This could have been different if Mercer was younger but it just wasn’t fair
Did you say that when a 41 year old Klitschko lost to a 29 year old Joshua?
Mercer was Old already
Love how you snuck in LotRs music at the end 😂
Young Mercer puts up a way better fight then he did here
We need a mercy life,and career story he's underrated
Lord of The Rings music at the end of the video is absolutely *chef’s kiss*
what is the name of this ?
Never forget the beating mercer gave to Tommy morrison
I do not understand why people thought Mercer was just a guy with a punch. He was a highly skilled pugilist. He had an excellent jab and cut off the ring with excellent footwork. His chin was made of titanium his heart was made of gold and his right hand was made of stone.
Mercer was really old and past his best here. The night he fought Lewis was his peak.
He was 40
He was also at his peak when he got outclassed by an old Larry Holmes.
Mercer was a beast, he was past his prime here. Hell of a fighter.
I've got a lot of respect for the Klitschko brothers; they're always modest, respectful, and brutally strong in the ring. Mercer is also a super strong fighter.
Like it or not, Wlad is the most powerful puncher in heavyweight history. No one has ever come close to his athleticism.
My god they were vicious shots from Wlad I rarely seen him fight like that.
Mercer was tough as nails
Ray Mercer was one tough son of a gun.
That's what Tyson avoided him...along with both Klitschko's
I was stationed at Ft Carson with Ray Mercer. Great guy. I'll never forget when he destroyed Tommy Morrison.
"Borat voice" wawa weee waaaa... i like...very nice...
"Klitschkos fighting a very good fight... and Mercer too!" . Mercer was a punching bag the whole fight.
from dr. steelhammer to captain clinch
One of the most vicious fights I ever saw was Ray mercer and Tim witherspoon on the bow -golota 2 under card .
I didn't know Klitschko was this fast and strong with his punches. Not a wimpy jabber like Lennox Lewis.
Good ol' "dont stop the fight until they're ded" boxing. That Morrison fight was outrageous. Absolutely no one was looking out for him
I know zero about boxing, but when Mercer was fighting others, he was a beast. The fight with Klitchko? NOT the same fighter.
Lotr music yes ❤
what is the name of this?
Lets go champ haaahaaa, can't you swim champ haahaa. The most ruthless words ever spoken in boxing
MERCILESS!!!
Кличко того времени, был серьезным аппанентом. Как то Льюис сказал, чтобы выйти с Кличко, мне потребуется два года с портзала не выходить.
There is a German boxer, Axel Schulz who fought Wladimir Klitschko as well as George Foreman.
He recently stated that when he got into the ring and got punched by Wladimir, that it felt more powerful than anything he has ever felt before.
A lose translation would be "Getting a left from Wladimir was like being punched by Foreman's right".
Yes, he fought an old George Foreman, but nevertheless that just shows how much power Wladimir had in his punches.
I dunno, it sounded like respect from both guys at the end. Wish we could see more of that these days.
Roy jones talking about someone not having a chin😂.. Loved jones growing up though.. heart of a lion , chin of a poet!
As reported in African & Asian press SLAVIC FIGHTERS are the world's toughest fighters Much Blessings Yuliya ♥️
LET'S GO CHAMP!
Vlad was so much bigger and was delivering those jack hammer Punches. Had Mercer lookin like Beetlejuice
Lmao the lord of the rings music
Klitchko a legend
Mercer was the definition of a tank. The punishment he took from Morrison is insane and he just ate it up like it was an appetizer. Best chin together with Foreman IMO.
That thumbnail pic of Klitschko looks fixed? Don’t recall him being that muscular?
Klitschko left hook is bomb
