That was either the worst showing of courage and heart that i have ever seen in a title fight, or a FIX.
I dont see WHY they would pay a bum like Austin to stay down whent he would beat him easily anyway, but that buuuuuuuullshit!
Austin QUIT. He wasnt knocked out.
Austin basically took a knee after some good punches, and refused to stand up.
That was pathetic. If you want a heavyweight title, you certainly have to try harder then that...
just saw the fight today. i had a busy weekend training.
to sum up the KO:
one great left hook to austin's face. one more lighter left to the face. one hook to the temple. to finish off, one more powerfull hook to the temple.
first 2 hooks hit the face, last two hit the temple region. very vulnerable spot.
the first left hook stunned austin big. the last left was what ended it.
wladimir klitschko!!!!!!!! :boxing:
The heavyweights has been pretty lackluster the past some odd years. But the fact remains, the BIG heavyweights can punch. I don't care how good your chin is, you get caught with a left hook by a 6'6 250 pound guy that knows how to throw a punch, your going down. Those 3 other hooks were just icing on the cake.
The knockout wasnt spectacular or anything, but Im sure Austin was hurt. Austin doesnt have a great chin either. Sultan had him hurt a few times.
i found the knockout very good. a big left hook followed of 3 other hooks. that man have skills. and can hit with both hands
.....This right here shows your bias towards the little fellas. What is more exciting than knocking out your opponents? Hmmmm
an exciting 10-12 round war...
Pacquioa-Morales
Ward-Gatti
Miranda-Abraham
Those are all MUCH better fights then anything Wlad has been in.
Wlad is boring!!!!!!!!!!
Sure KO's are exciting, but when they are preceded by 8 or 9 rounds of nothingness, they are worth forgetting.
I saw Klistchko KO Brock live in the garden, and it was exciting sure, but ive already forgotten about it because of how boring the first few rounds were.
Klitscko is terrible for boxing, i hope to god he doesnt unify. I want Peter to do it. He's exciting
What he should do is now put preassure one the champs to fight him in the nexy 3 months, or 4, because this fight he really never got hit or hurt, or exhausted. Thats the problem with HW fights, one meaningful one every 6 months. You could actually get the div up again, if there were not so many polotics involved in who fought who.
i dont hate heavyweights at all.
Thats not even what im talkin about. i didnt stay around to watch the replays of the KO, but Austin didnt look like he tried.
Klitschko didnt even throw his right hand... which i waited a good month to see.
Just a dissapointing night overall.
klitschko couldn't be in an exciting fight in they threw gatti, pacquioa, and miranda in the ring with him at the same time
.....This right here shows your bias towards the little fellas. What is more exciting than knocking out your opponents? Hmmmm
so soft he whupped your boy peter on his worst night. long live the king :banana: haha,,,I love you haters, were goin to have a field day with ya'll for a long time to come :banana:
....The above about sums it all up. Wlad would destroy Peter if they fought again IMO and he will dominate for years and years to come. He's on a different level right now and just starting to hit his peak. Besides, if Vitali gets Peter before Wlad does we probably won't be seeing Peter around again.
wow... this post is late. but
hvwt division is veryvery weak. dudes that would shine on this weak happenstants fight have to face it. deal with it.
to talk about how wlad has strenghth or quickness is fey talk. it don't matter..
theres no one to fight. what club fighers like peter? lackies like valuev?
how weak simple and shallow.
there all clowns. but casual boxing fans buy into this shit.
so forget what ive said and enjoy these lackies.
all in all wlad has always been a lackie. but he's fighting lackys
of the lackiest kind.
thats all we have to matabalize.
you know wlad/valuev has a good taint to it....im an idiot.
He had to fight who was put in front of him.. DOnt hate on WLAD.. hate on King.. he is the guy who Put Austin in there...
Wlad did what he had to do...
Wlad Wants unification..
King doesn't
i don't know, why all people are taking all credit from wlad. he knocked out the guy who got a draw with ibragimov and donald. it was a nice knock out. 4 powerfull left hooks. If austin had choosed reyes gloves, he would get killed.
So if the fight was fixed, why should austin want to use the puncher gloves. that would be worse for him
I dunno I could see Holyfield pulling a Randy Couture..
Wlad isn't garbage like Sylvia.

well I was calling for Wlad to get ko'd but I'll admit I was wrong, and Austin seemed hurt. This isn't like the fix I called for Green bein dehydrated againgst Mirada. Anyway I tip my hat to WK. I thouht very highly of his brother and him coming off the '96 olympics and i guess I was right...10 years later. I dunno I could see Holyfield pulling a Randy Couture.. I just think that the Eastern Bloc wont dominate for long. But if Manny keeps schooling them they just might. and for the record I think Valuev is THE BEST. Primo he isn't!
Man Austin was walking around with his hands down and moving in the exact direction a left hook will clock you. Plus, Wlad caught him and then hit him a couple more times. 4 times to be exact, plus a glancing 5th. And the 2 hits after the double left were pretty viscous, and they were right on the temple.
Maybe he does lack heart.
One thing I will say, Wlads jabs are looking deadly. They are crisp, tight, and quick. And he pulls his hand back nicely for defense. I'm always so surprised at how quick he is considering his size.
He was moving to the left all the time because he was afraid of the right hand, which he knew would finish him. He just never saw that left coming, I'll bet you he will say that in his post fight interview.
.....A heavyweight hater. Keep loving the little bitches and I will keep pulling for the real men. :banana:

I started watching at 10PM fight didn't start till 20 minutes later then ended 4 minutes later...
There was no competition at all.
The fight should have been called come watch Klitschko KO some bum really quick then leave.
People were booing after the fight. Cause it wasn't a fight.
But no one expected anything from Ray Austin anyways.
it was a shitty fight waste of my time.
It was only 4 mins. What can a waste of 4 mins could possible lead too? Wlad caught him lovely.
I rememeber Austin saying he isn't Chris bryd, damn sure he wasn't and he just made Chris Bryd look like a king.
that was a fixed fight...austin didn't even put up a fight. He layed down because Don wants to match klit vs valuez or briggs. An austin victory would ruin that. Don is not stupid he has two of the heavy weight champions. people would pay dollars to see valuez vs wlad or briggs
LOL Are you utterly insane? If Austin won, then King would have the IBF belt to go with his others. King wants ALL the belts- THAT is his goal. And if he can't get them, then he'll drag his feet, use his control of the sanctioning bodies to stall any unifications until he can get them all. That's what he's been doing for years and years. Your statement has no logic. Don King is not stupid, but you damn sure are. LOL
