Klitschko Solidifies Status, Stops Austin in Two

[vB Martin]

did I use the word "solidify"?

Did you perhaps read the thread title before posting?

no,,,,he knocked him out like he should have and did it much faster than anyone else without even needing to throw the right hand. to me thats impressive. austin is far from title deserving but he is awckward and has given good fighters very tough fights such as sultan and larry donald. wlad did what he was supposed to do and did it impressively,,,thats all there is to it

Sultan Ibragamov has never beat anyone above a journeyman status. I don't see how that makes him a "good" fighter.

Larry Donald was not on anyone's radar until he fought an aged, injured Holyfield. He has beat no one else of note, except a faded, 40 year old tim Witherspoon. In fact, every time he stepped up he lost.


At best, I would call them both B fighters, not resume builders. The fact that he drew with both of them speaks volumes.
