RBR: Sturm-Sylvester. Der hass fight!

[BattlingNelson]

did they embrace after the fight Bat?

alot of tension before the fight

That's right herb. Yeah they did. I think that Sturm still doesn't like Sylvester following all Sylvesters insulting though. Sturm didn't look Sylvester in the eye.

BTW Sturm did not call anyone out here on ZDF.

I must say I am surprised. I thought Sylvester was going to take this. From what I have seen of Sylvester, he is one tough customer.


This is a great win for Sturm. This will be a good confidence builder for him. I bet you he will be willing to get into the mix now.

[BattlingNelson]

will you be doing rbr for the Julio fight as well?

Probably not as the fight aint live. It takes a bit of the tension.

I had never heard of Sylvester before this, I still stand by Pavlik and Abraham KOing Sturm, I've seen the Castillejo fight, Sturms chin isn't the greatest.

his claim to fame was beating castillejo of most recent when sturm got ko'd by castillejo in "06.

Yeah Sturm will be a difficult proposition for both Pavlik and Abraham. He has a great jab and a very good defense. And he is always in great shape.

I always knew he had talent. The first fight with Javier made him more reluctant though. I think he will be willing to go for the big paydays now. You have to take notice of him, he would not be an easy fight for anyone.

Unfortunately for Sturm he will likely not face Pavlik or Abraham before the fall next year at the earliest. Of course he could fight Abraham next if Pavlik needs a confidencebuilder before he takes on the Abrahammer.

Well more than anything, Pavlik needs a couple big wins to win back the public's confidence in him. Pavlik considers his last fight simply as a bad fight for him. I don't think he is shaken by that.

He needs to boost up the public's view of him to make any unification fights financially feasible.

Hey bat do you know if they will be showing the Julio fight soon?? I'm watching ZDF and they are showing football highlights.

Please nobody post the result here.

sturm knows his limits and won't be taking on anyone world class like pavlik or abraham imo.
but he'll stay in the euro scene and if anything go the route of ottke!
poor guy was robbed against dlh.
