Yep!!! i thought Chagaev had the perfect movement in the first round, He was slipping so many shots from Wlad but once wlad settle down and started getting through Chagaev's guard it was over and he became a stationary target.Comment

If you get discouraged that easily you were never going to beat Wlad, that right hand was pretty huge in round 2 though and that pretty much crushed Chagaev's will (he really did not seem to have a clue what to try after that), Wlad has a beautiful right hand and Chagaev just let him stayed lines up by circling into it (Wlad was also allowed to keep his lead foot outside Chagaev's lead food, which everytime you hear about an orthodox vs southpaw is a key to the fight).
Wlad made Chagaev look pretty much like Hasim Rahman though and that is throughly impressive, if he is allowed to fight his fight (allowed probably is not the right word, but if Wlad can not be forced out of his comfort zone) he is virtually unbeatable.Comment

The only time he moved was when the bell sounded to end the round
A broken back?Comment

Let me get this straight... people still had a problem with what Wladimir Klitschko did against Ruslan Chagaev?
Things Klitschko doesn't do:
Clinch
Run
Pitty pat
Make mistakes
Puts himself in unreasonable danger
Things Klitschko does:
Punches hard
Fights the best fighters he can
So... what is there not to like?
Anyway, I thought Wladimir Klitschko looked as good as he ever has last night. He looked fantastic... relaxed, and did not make a single mistake to my eyes. That one big shot that Chagaev landed was landed after the bell (at least my ears led me to believe the bell went off before that shot landed)... other than that, it was all Klitschko, against the best heavyweight not named Klitschko.
Wladimir is making me more and more of a fan everytime he fights.Comment

He looked like a Greek God vs a mere mortal.
The only good shot Chagaev landed was after the bell (= when Klitschko lowered his defense to go back to his corner). Obviously Chagaev didn't hear the bell.Comment
