This Vlad fellow gets access to all these big names... and literally does no preparation for the interview, has no meaningful questions, no conversation skills, never has any follow up questions, and seems to just work off a print out of the fighter's record.
Douglas interview:
'David Bey knocked you out.' No, it was a retirement after two rounds.
'You fought Jesse Clark three times...' Okay. What's the question?
'Did Mike White knock you out or was it a stoppage?' What tact!
'You fought Jesse Ferguson.' Douglas is about to respond -- 'And onto the next name you fought.'
Brings up Tex Cobb fight. Gets no details about the fight itself.
'You fought this name. That name. This name. That name. No questions. Now onto Tony Tucker.'
Retired on my stool after that one. Vlad is not an interviewer, and once again I'm left to marvel at how these brainless youtube drones get access to all these great boxers while having less knowledge than the average Boxreccer.

Maybe the fact that they know they won't get tough questions is why they are willing to do it. A name of an opponent is mentioned, and then they can just go on with whatever they want to to talk about.
