lol not really, but he ain't a bad fighter. Does anyone know where i can see his fight with Masoe online? I have only seen this fool fight once, but he does impress me with his technical skills. He is well bred.
The WBA is pathetic!!!! what happens if sturm fought and beat arthur abraham? then he would have two belts which would make him the wba "super" champ, but Taylor has two belts and is already considered the wba "super" champ? would they then give a third version of the wba "regular" belt and have three champs in one class? pathetic
What the fuck are you talking about? There is only one wba belt! It was for the vacant belt moron! You talk complete smack!
To get this straight: The bout really wasn't about the belt. Every fucking journeyman bout has some title added to it nowadays. This fight was about how Sturm comes back after his elbow injury. About how he could take the punch of a knockout artist like Masoe. He showed that he is ready for the next step and that was by far the most important result of todays fight.
If the public starts acknowledge the worthless WBO as a world title, than we all should recognize IBO & IBA as world titles too... WBC, WBA & IBF are the only true world titles.
won't work...remember promoters feed their propaganda to people who don't know better...except for probably 10%!
the WBA isn't much genuine anymore due to its new "regular" belt!...that is a total joke!
Yeah, I guess it was really "classy" when Ali would call Joe Frazier an Uncle Tom, and Frazier would refer to Ali as Clay
or when Roy Jones raps and dances before a title defense vs. Clinton Woods, yeah that's "classy"
or when Barrera and Morales trade blows at a press conference for their rematch, "classy" stuff
how about when NIGEL BENN HIT GERALD MCCLELLAN IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD, OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER
yeah, "classy" stuff
There are two kinds of boxing fans, you know? The first group loves boxing for its excitement and brutality. Usually they love watching heavyweights and all-out brawls.
The second group loves boxing for its technical elements, for its spirit and the respect you have for someone that you fought.
Which group do you belong to?
Fighters embracing each other after the fight, fighters being gracious in defeat, fighters sacrificing a lot in order to reach their goals, Schmeling paying for Louis' funeral, Tyson stateing the he doesn't think he has been an All-Time Top 10 HW, McClellan being supported by fans and former opponents till today, that is classy.
What's this about?
At least German boxing fans have enough class and style not to post racist stereotypes on online boxing forums.
Moochie, we have agreed in the past, but this time you're just talking bullshit.
no, it's not the German's fault brother....it's just that Sturm's victory should be seen for what it really is: a decent win, vs. a top 20-30 opponent, that may lead Sturm into a fight for the "real" world middleweight championship (something he's never competed for before)
well maybe not everyone knows wba has 2 belts, you have to be a pretty serious boxing fan who cares to know, sturm is a draw and i wouldnt expect casual fans to know he isnt THE wba champ, cant fault people if they dont know,
so its the germans fault that the wba has 2 belts

yes and i apologize....i was actually thinking that it was getting borderline a few times and i was thinking of mentioning that it was not racist......
i've been to germany many many times and had a great time and the people were great...i hate klinsman though!
No harm taken. We're still cool. :)
I assume that you have never boxed yourself and don't know shit about boxing history. Remarks like that just make you look stupid. Boxing is, maybe more than any other sport, about being classy.

no it is not their fault, but, the one thing people have to realize is that:
Boxing promoters lobby the organizations behind the scenes......i'll leave the imagination to you!
I know that you're not a racist but maybe sometimes it would help to differentiate a lil more.

the WBO is a fake belt?
of course it's fake
Naseem Hamed was their best title-holder ever, and he went for 2.5 years WITHOUT FIGHTING THE #1 CONTENDER (JMM at the time)
you call that a "real" championship????
boxing ain't about being classy, it's about being a bad-ass

if you think that being "classy" is an essential trait of internet trash talk....then dude, go watch ice skating, boxing ain't about being classy, it's about being a bad-ass
and it's only talk, don't get your panties in a bunch
either way, if the German fans were so "classy" they wouldn't be supporting a bout which featured a phony title belt
so its the germans fault that the wba has 2 belts
Personally, I don't recognize Lamon Brewster as heavyweight champ
or Margarito as welterweight champ
which WBO champs are YOU referring to?
yes those two are good examples and corrales also when he beat freitas....
it pretty much all started with brewster KO'ing Klitschko, and yes he is a gun, but until then I believe the american boxing fans didn't really recognize the WBO...now, a bit selective!...
what do you think?
i am not racist and i hope i haven't hurt your feelings. if i have, i sincerely apologize.
I know that you're not a racist but maybe sometimes it would help to differentiate a lil more.
